All this over 1.5 degrees Celsius? Are you kidding me? I'm not a person without credentials myself and i can say there is no climate catastrophe in the future. This is all about money
You are correct. I call it a carbon tax.

Well said. In addition, The whole green scam is Chinas honey pot. Pushed by the globalist to drain your bank accts. let's not forget when Co2 rises, forest growth spikes. it has ZERO to do with us. its where we are in our ELIPTICAL orbit around the sun and where we are in the up and down travels around the milky way. Raskin is towing the line of those who are dead set on destroying the human condition and transfer of power. he's a despicable puppet. Oh, China making trillions of this scam. hmmmm can u say corruption at it best, I just did.
I’m an Idiot
(A parody based on Monty Python’s I’m a Lumberjack)
Lead: I’m an idiot and that’s ok.
I believe the lies media vomit out each day.
Chorus: He’s an idiot and that’s ok
He believes lies media vomit out each day.
Lead: Let’s cut down trees. Let’s eat our lunch. Let’s go to the lavatory.
Every day let’s go shopping and have buttered scones for tea.
Chorus: We cut down trees. We eat our lunch.
We go to the lavatory.
Every day we’ll go shopping and have buttered scones with tea.
We’re all idiots and that’s ok. We believe the lies media vomit out each day.
Lead: I cut down trees, breathe wildfire smoke
Bulldoze wild fields of flowers
What bugs me most is watching
Men dress up like me ma.
Chorus: He cuts down trees, breathes wildfire smoke
Bulldozes fields of flowers
What bugs him most is watching
Men dress up like his ma?…
(As in the original, the Chorus fidgets and looks nervous, but resumes heartily on the refrain)
We’re all idiots and that’s ok.
We believe wha media vomiteaches up each day.
Lead: I cut down trees, pollute the land, the oceans and the sky. I’m living large for right now. The rest of life can die.
Chorus: He cuts down trees, pollutes the land, the ocean and the sky. He’s living large for right now. The rest of life can die…?
(As in the original skit during this last bit the Chorus begins to breaks down, using questioning, agitated, raised voices but in this version turns and accosts the lead singer)
@@chris4973 carbon dioxide is plant food, not pollution
And power
I am sooo sick of them saying agricultural and livestock add to the greenhouse issues is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous!!!!!
Great way to funnel money to the pockets politions
It's absurd. They don't know or believe in God. "And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good."
It’s the dinosaur’s 😂 not the cows
Ain’t shit changed in my 71 yrs we just have more technology to bullshit folks!
It’s absolutely BS . They can interfere with our weather . The crap that they push up into our sky’s.
At a earlier hearing JOHN KENNEDY asked "if we give you the 50 trillion dollars, how many degrees will the temperature drop " answer, "we have no way of knowing that "these people are idiots!
Did I hear a bingo???
"WE MAY HAVE A DISPUTE OVER THE FACTS HERE" -Nerd
Get US out of UN.
There stims the problem we have, the UN is a joke has been since it's conception it is and will always be it has been controlled by the COMMUNIST Party of the and we are paying for them too control this country !
and the UN out of the US
And if countries like China, Iran, and Russian don't comply..... what did this enormous amount of money WE spend get us? Answer... nothing
Exactly!
Well it makes the democrats rich
That And we've been doing it since Paris treaty act.
100% fact
Kennedy cleaned raskins clock
I cannot stand Raskin…..been ripping off MD for many years
Well, chemo ripped off his coif eh...
I hate Raskin, but I’m also glad that he isn’t being rude and mean to Mr. Kennedy because Kennedy is one awesome guy! I believe Kennedy is the only person that has treated like a dog!!
@@Ericah81 yep
I love at 1st to watch Raskin vs Biden behind the barn. He look like he couldn’t eat chicken noodle soup because of the danger.
The point is, we're spending our money inefficiently on something that will produce far less results.
Raskin was off over 4 BILLION in his estimation of Worlds Population.
That’s greater than 50% OFF!
DUHHHH
Doesn't know
the facts. Why is he in Congress.
Follow the money; connect the dots; use common sense; hold Dems accountable.
Like a game of Pac-Man!
Biden's loving all the mess he's created
So no one remembers that him and his family are criminals And Members of Congress have been getting very little press coverage While exposing the Democratic criminals. And follow the money 💰 But don't think for one minute We're getting it back. 🧐
Let's see more carbondioxydologists.

@@markosteen2704 ... and ignorance is bliss, it goes deepest in darkness.
Wish we had more John Kennedys in the world.
I'd add to your comment by saying it would benefit the world immensely if we had a lot fewer Raskins.
Sen. Ted Cruz is great too! I wouldn’t want to tangle with either man. And I’d be glad to be represented by Kennedy or Cruz any day of the week.
John F. Kennedys. Not this bozo.
@@jamesgarrett2129 anyone that supports the traitor Raskin is responsible for all that happens!
I am crazy mad for this man. He can sit at my dinner table any night of the week he can show up late. His wife is invited of course also
❤ I love you senator Kennedy so brilliant
Tell the truth it’s carbon MONOXIDE that has to be removed not carbon dioxide which is plant food that the plants use to create oxygen.
without CO 2 there is no life .
Correct.
Ummm, trees = life!
Ratskin is what forms on a drying ponds surface...😮
They know that. Demons don't like life. Demons don't like God.
How can set the alarm we're all carbon life forms that's what makes us unique and they won't talk about what a volcano admits in one day and all of naturally occurring methane production for everybody of water on the planet and don't f forget about the crab farts
F the new green deal and electric cars!
10 4 on that!!!!!!!!!
Hear, Hear!
The cars arent bad, i love mine. I hate the climate scam though.
Just another way ...the United Nations gathers funds for what was the
NWO..nowthey have rebranded as the WEF !!
@@outkast187 said the sheeple.

Stand ready!!
I haven't seen any coastal cities underwater yet because of ocean levels rising!!!
Moreover, prices are still sky high on exclusive seafront properties! Why is that?
Plymouth rock is exactly where it was in 1620. Same dock height in NY since 1740. The ocean is not rising. Venice was built on a swamp and was flooding since day 1.
Climate 'scientist' and 'expert' Al Gore was so worried about rising sea levels; he bought a house ON THE BEACH in California......Guess the sea level won't rise by his house...........
@@davidinsocal3032 The architects of the coming neo-feudalism will be spared the ocean's wrath
Ratskin is freaking joke
Actually he's a good congressman, maybe not on top of environmental issues, but at least he willing to listen to those who study it. Waste his time with the house impeachment circus, meanwhile the planet sickens.
And a bad one.
Kennedy is a old clown
A 1st grader knows there are about 8 Billion people on Earth !

We need more people like Senator Kennedy! Smart & Mighty man !!!
Less plastics, more carbon neutral 😐 😮 !!
Logging needs to be done as a farming industry, to protect the forest, before the forest fires 🔥 start !!!
I’ll be enjoying my gas guzzling V8s driving the backroads on a warm summer afternoon and no one will take that from me
You are part of the problem. We all know you own a Prius and use 500 gallons of water rinsing out soup cans for recycling.
I own a 2020 Mustang 5.0 and a 2017 Prius. I drive the Prius on the weekdays because my commute is 50 miles a day and I charge it every day so I spend virtually nothing on gas, only about $2 per weekday in electricity. It’s going to last me a few hundred thousand miles I hope. I drive the 5.0 basically anywhere other than work, it’s my “fun” car. We should frack more so I can drive my 5.0 more without breaking the bank. $4.50/gallon for premium is rough when you only get 16 MPG.
Raskin is a great BS artist.
He is nothing less than pure evil.
Raskin is just reiterating what the oil company scientists have said in the 1970s. We knew about this way back then and are still doing nothing.
you can leave out great.
He's got my father impressed for sure. I love my father but he has a LOT of shit opinions and takes.
BS ‘artists’ are never “great”, only successful at their crimes.
Unless you're the reason that your parents drink? PRICELESS Sen Kennedy!!
Unless you are the child who made your parents drink. Still laughing.
God bless you, Mr. Kennedy
We need more like Senator Kennedy ❤
Kenny has done his homework while raskin looks like a fool...
Because he is.

Greenhouses that use CO2 have much better yields. Hence, it's a proof that plants will flourish, grow faster, bigger, and yield higher in case of higher concentration of CO2. And let's consider that CO2 is 0.04% of the atmosphere which is 4 particles in 10,000. How on earth have they managed to link climate change to this trace gas? That is an accomplishment.
Yes, all commercial greenhouses add CO2 to achieve levels of 1,000-1,200 ppm.

Our carbon foot print vs Nature is not a fart in the wind.
He cannot outsmart our senator John Kennedy
When asked how many people are on the planet Jamie raskin answered 4 billion. These people are not impressive.
indeed, less than impressive!
The reich wing hates Jamie. Smartest man in Washington, DC
it was more than 4 billion 20-30 years ago. yes he needs to update on that haha
@@douglemay7989 Maybe smarter than Hank Johnson. But he obviously is scared of math.
@@JimmeShelter The population of Earth is an everyday figure? Keep worshipping Mr. Haney. Hooterville needs him more than the Senate does.
Everybody is destroying the planet. But not my private jet...not my three security vehicles & 5collector cars, not my 9,000sq foot mansion, not the kitchens that serve my steak, not the 27 staffers who prepare my position, not my many overseas meetings, not my Yacht or my friends, not my buddies in China and Russia! But we need to charge the taxpayers for eating, traveling, keeping warm and cool, going to church, having fun, and visiting grandma....
As a lifelong Louisianian, I can confirm that the storms have not been more intense at all. If nothing they have been pretty tame compared to Andrew or Katrina. Getting help to get things rebuilt and running again has always been the biggest issue.
Katrina was engineered and the purpose was to depopulate the area, make it unlivable for poor people so that the rich can buy up the land, which is exactly what happened.
It isn’t a matter of Climate Change…. It is the money they can give supporters who are in the Climate Change mitigation industries. When Raskin quotes scientists, it is the scientists that agree with the Climate Change agenda, not the ones who disagree and are censored by the government.
Exactly
they never give a name when they talk about the scientists
TRUTH
The Atmosphere Needs Carbon To Maintain its Health!
We are just re-releasing the carbon back to where it came from to be ridiculed exactly how God intended
Carbon dioxide is plant food , the plants take in CO2 through their leaves and release oxygen for animals, fish , insects ,and humans I was taught in 4th grade.
Also the oceans take in co2 too
lol
Apparently, many on the Left were not science majors. Most people who know science and who have studied environmental sciences know the importance of Boreal Forests. Senator Kennedy is an intellectual who makes his opponent look like a bumbling student who did not do his homework.
They should interview Dr. Willie Soon.
He should ask them "What's the mean temperature of the planet?"
.
It was actually 5 - 10 degrees warmer in Medieval times and man survived without our technology
Fucking precisely... But nobody seems to be talking about that... Why? Because it is a slab of steel driven right thought all of their lies... A shining rod of truth... And that is just a single period from the history... It`s all just one huge deception based on some actual statistics that while true independently as a historical fact, are not something that should be used to deceive and manipulate, but then again, we have heard certain lobbyist groups claiming that they ``own science`` and that ``people should accept that``... Science is a pursuit of empirical truths and laws of the universe... Not a single entity can own science, otherwise we are talking about a propaganda machine, that can defile that otherwise noble pursuit into a radical doctrine of lies used to enforce - by deception any agenda that the unelected lobbyist group in power seeks to pass...
There was a Little Ice Age in the middle ages, most people survived, and we got some nice post cards from Currier & Ives out of it.
@@padraiggluck2980 In the middle ages the population of the entire world was somewhat less than those in Europe alone now. Soon to have 9 billion on this planet and that is unsustainable.
@@terry2346 The entire world population could fit in Texas. What percent of the world’s habitable land mass is occupied? The answer is very little.
@@padraiggluck2980 If you want to go back even further just take a look at the last major ice age event, we lived through that no problem as early humans and even spread because of it and these people are saying that a 1-2 degree increase will make it nearly impossible to live?
Senator. Kennedy. Is. Awesome.
He's always been awesome.
He is a national treasure
"My legs got blown off and I'm bleeding out but let me put a tiny band-aid on this cut on my left thigh...."
CO2 is a trace gas comprising about .045% of the earth's atmosphere. Of the annual grand carbon cycle (global CO2 emissions minus earth's absorption of it) man's contribution is less than 5%.
It amazes me how these extreme liberals keep getting voted into office.
Most of them cheat their way in that's how they get into office.
A lot of brainwashed folks out there.
They fiddle it
They don't; they all cheat!
So....when did you right wingers decide to go full crackpot and made science, math, and history all leftist conspiracies?
senator Kennedy you never cease to amaze me. We need more people like you and the United StatesSENATE..
I absolutely adore Him. I love his old school sayings. He is a very brilliant man.
@@user-wg6zh1qj9x I totally agree. I love it when he puts that southern twist on a perplex situation And simplifies logical thinking.
@@user-wg6zh1qj9x he also is very respectful to the other side. He just doesn’t let them smear BS to the American people and he exposes truth with logical thought
I love him also, unfortunately he's in the minority of politicians who actually care. He can call people out but nothing will change unless the people put an end to it.
We wouldn't be in this position if they would have left Nicolas Tesla alone...
Regardless of political opinion, these are two guys who respect each other and don’t allow for differences in opinion to foster negative feelings towards one another. We need more of that
I wish senator Kennedy would run for president. He would win easily. Very smart no baggage and serves the American people like politicians should. God bless him.😊
If the election wasn’t run by cheaters
I like him too much to wish that on him.😊
Like him a lot, but he's my age, 72.....hopefully President Trump will have a younger person as his VP choice and we'll get new blood at the top.
Yes there is another that does the same as Kennedy his name is Donald Trump...a vote for him is like voting for Kennedy as they carry the same message...stop the BS!
Personally, I think he will be a formidable stronghold in trump’s organization. This man is everything we want in American citizen and more.
I remember as a child I was terrified that we were getting ready for the next "ice age." My dad wisely sat me down and rationally explained to me why this was not going to happen. In my life there have been natural dissaster predictions with multiple "we're going to die" per decade of my life. EVERY single prediction was WRONG! Not one single prediction had ever proven true.
I remember as a child in the 1970s that one article in Time magazine claimed particulates were cooling the Earth faster than CO2 was warming it. But since I went to a good school we were also taught that CO2 would overtake particulates and the earth would warm.
In my lifetime there have been many predictions regarding decadal warming, and all of them have been proven correct. Predictions of sea level rise, all correct. All the while we watch the science alliterates claim "they all said 'we gonna die'" and we can just sit back and laugh at them.
Every single prediction has been correct, but try telling the least educated Americans.
"The Sky Is Falling" - Chicken Little
They want to cool the planet while we are going into a Solar Minimum. All we need is one or two volcanos.
This is more about raising taxes than saving the world. Governments old tricks.
Such a scam….
Some people are getting richer. LOL.
But who is doing it? The solar cell scammers, Tesla, Rivian, the battery makers, any company that claims it is green.
he's no match for Sen Kennedy
NOBODY is. He’s a GOAT
Raskin cannot hold a handle to senator Kennedy. Senator Kennedy is not stupid and he has common sense.
"Here's Johnny!" "Checkmate", while Little Jaime The Self Hating Aging Hebe is struggling w/ checkers!
The Senator makes him look like a bumbling student who did not do his homework.
They Will be After The Fish Farts Next !!!
They don't want you anymore!!!!
not to mention the billions of tons of carbon released everyday for volcanoes all over the world!
Volcanos do not erupt everyday. About 50 a year worldwide. No need to add to it. The Industrial economy amplifies it billions of tons more.
@@DaTooch_ehow much carbon did the biggest eruption in the past 300 years release?
@@DaTooch_e Thank goodness for that. We'd freeze our asses off otherwise.
@@DaTooch_e actually they do. Ever heard of Kilauea? Old faithful? Oceanic Hydrothermal vents? There is volcanic activity every single day on this planet a lot of it just goes unnoticed because it's not as dramatic as say Mt St. Helens was, but even those are not as rare as you might think.
And don't forget all the coal plants in China and India
I love Kennedy
I love how the social site LOVES to put their two cents in whenever a controversial subject comes up! We don’t need YOUR EXPLANATION of the event being discussed.🙄
Have you seen or heard British Petroleum’s latest ads? They say the have contributed “billions” to our economy. But what they won’t tell you is that, through negligence, they created the largest oil spill in history in the Gulf of Mexico - The Deepwater Horizon catastrophe. BP is a horrible company!
The air is 0.04% Co2, plant life begins to die at 0.02%. Lowering Co2 is a terrible idea and could lead to mass starvation.
That's what they want, The whole world as their playground.
400 ppm = 0.04% not 0.4%
@@benwiley2877 corrected it, ty
I believe THAT is what they are hoping for...
All about population control . Mass genocide through food control .
Oh look. Raskin is lying, how do I know, he is talking.
Talking, typing, writing, texting, smoke signals, skywriting, telegraph...
That is RATSKIN..
That sounds like the same argument my kids always made to me when I told them to make their beds... They always said "why, it's just gonna get messed up again tonight when I go to bed.... Just because there is something that is a naturally accuring event for which we can do nothing about happens doesn't mean we shouldn't try to curb or eliminate what we can do something about... Plus, having more options creates completion which keeps prices down... I don't think fossil fuel things need to go away completely but I do think we should have alternatives... I don't want ANY industry to have the kind of control that the big oil companies have had on our lives. How does everyone not see this!
Alternatives are good. Subsidies are not.
I watched a video about climate change and how horrible it was but then it showed plants growing in the artic for the first time during the summer... I thought that is a good thing
Jami, Are You Saying Forcing Climate Changes Is More Important Than Supplying Healthy Food For Mankind And Animals? What Is Wrong With Your Mind !! Feel Free To Resign !!
It’s refreshing to have a scientific expert like Raskin on the panel. What a joke. I’ll bet he didn’t pass 1 science course in school.
He’s just getting screen time for an ultimate Senate run/cabinet position.
yes he did pass a class. The art of lying.
he’s just saw a flying pig and he thinks it normal 😢😢😢😢🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s nice to hear these two gentleman from different sides of the aisle treat each other with respect.
The incident in Texas when everything froze and no one had electricity just goes to show green politics and going green is not the solution. Current green technology is not efficient of cost effective. We would have a better chance at modifying/ engineering new combustion energy that are more fuel efficient. This is a better Alternative.
When they quit burning jet fuel I'll think about getting a electric car.
They stand in line for their slave made iphone then use it to protest the patriarchy. Can't make this up lol.
Electricty require coal, oil, ng or nuclear power to generate. It is worse then using foossil fuels.

They want us to eat worms, bugs, cockroaches and things like that. I myself am going to eat Porterhouse steak , hogs and chickens.
All these congressmen have intelligence and common sense to see issues from the same perspective. Isn't it odd that most Democrat politicians keep pushing towards eliminating fossil fuels and promoting other forms of energy?Do you think it's because they're receiving kick backs or even investing in the whole green energy narrative to fill their coffers? Why would anyone push so hard against facts and common sense? Maybe money is their motivation?
Are all the other countries in the world doing this or is this just are country? It looks to me like China and most countries are not going along with the lie of climate change. This is to make some one rich!
Absolute Legend Senator John Kennedy!! Thank You Good Sir For Standing Strong For The True American Patriots!!
I just love how the senator clarified how nature rules no matter how much one likes to think differently. We are just ants in this universe.
How about volcanoes,volcanic parks,other earth vents.wild fires etc,wars,please ask these people the temperature prediction for 2050.
And Solar activity.
What climactic changes are occurring on the other planets of the solar system? Are they static? Or is the Evil Human destroying them,too? Yes we should be responsible stewards. But stop being Narcissist enough to play God.
"Carbon" s a prejudicial propaganda term. Coal dust,black lung. Laundry! CO2 is colorless and odorless ,plants love it. Its key to photosynthesis.(Thats a good thing). Love CO2 !!! Its the bubbles in my beer! We are carbon based life (As is most life on earth) Anti Carbon = Anti-Life.
LIVE spelled backwards is EVIL . Anti-Carbon is Evil.
Suppose shifts in the earth's magnetism might matter?.
Thank God for the male Senator who (at the 8:55 mark), discretely scribbles a note to the women to the right of 'him' (which I think} reminding her that they are 'on camera' and thankfully results in her finally closing her knees! I honestly thought she was about to give birth! If that was a male Senator sat there with his fly open there would be outrage!
THE MASTER AT WORK💥👊🤸🔥
It is 2024. Ratskin wants a steady 4% reduction in fossil fuels. Kennedy says how much will we use by 2050. Ratsak has no idea.

I too am sorry that Raskin had cancer. The thing that was odd was that he wore a doo-rag throughout his chemo [treatments]. As soon those treatments ended, Jamie took off his head covering, and...Magically, he's got a full head of hair. Perhaps Raskin wore the bandanna for attention? He's such a clown.
Wig?
@@1Bman Doubt it. If he didn't wear the "cap" correctly, you could see his hair popping out from underneath. I hate to say it but I think he was faking it. Why? Because he had chemo and after a few hours of that, you're wiped out for a day or two. I think he missed 1 day in Congress. Plus the fact that he still had his eyebrows, eyelashes, didn't look like he lost any weight and his coloring was normal. That's not normal when you have cancer.
Ikr!!!!

"Unless you're the reason your parents drink, this doesn't make any sense." Kennedy cracks me up
I wish that some of these folks would listen to those like Patrick Moore, who have studied a fair amount regarding the Earth & it's climate!
Sen. Kennedy makes me think of Colombo! I love this guy!!!
I have no doubt that Raskin has and will never treat a Republican with such respect….
The damages are also high because construction efforts use cheap materials, half-assed meathods, and bare minimus standards. Case in point, ALL the new build homes during the NE tornado that just happened were completely flattened. The older builds were damaged, but almost all were still standing.
CO2 as a "greenhouse gas" is in fact ridiculously low compared to water vapor as a greenhouse gas. The effect of CO2, a fertilizer for all plant life, is nil, compared to water vapor.
Yes, the GHG effect due to H2O vapor alone is 60-85%, depending on your politics.
Notice how Kennedy's caring demeanor at the beginning sets the tone for the entire interaction. It made the entire discourse productive. He is a master at communication and sales actually...
That is how the dems get away with so much. Their are not held accountable
Excellent point. He’s masterful. He would make a great CEO. Thank God he’s in the Congress.
I agree because it’s very seldom that Raskin is nice and decent with anyone, but he is with Kennedy! What a great character Kennedy is!
Kennedy - master class
Kennedy vice president or president?
I'm all for getting off of fossil fuels but, that should happen AFTER a viable replacement is found. Congress should be pushing for that viable replacement instead of the end of fossil fuels.
There's not a damn thing wrong with fossil fuels. This climate agenda BS has been pushed since before I was even alive. They told my parents they were going to die from acid rain They told my generation the rainforest would be gone and all the polar bears would be dead, etc. It's always been utter bs and a giant money laundering scheme on the backs of taxpayers. Period
I thought that's exactly where the money was going as they explained. They clarified that it was being spent to invest in alternative energy solutions, no? Now, there are certain environmental acts that would make it harder on fossil fuels but I'm not sure if it's any significant percentage of the bill or at all from what they're discussing?
Tell the other countries in the world to do it first, then we will do. Fuck waiting for the U.S. to come up with a solution. We aren’t the ONLY ones contributing to “climate change.”
@@pl5994 Re-read my post. Pay attention to the part about getting off fossil fuels AFTER a viable replacement is found. You can't say the USA is going to be off fossil fuels by 2050 without saying what's going to take its place.
@@davidc3943 Exactly!!
Everything we need to solve our problems is sitting in the patent office. We could have free and clean energy. We could have cars that run on water.

My god, did not a single one of the people commenting listen to the last thing said in this video?
Electric vehicles make no Sense without a Nuclear Power Grid. That's what environmentalists in the 90s were saying. Infrastructure first - not Li-Ion which can explode SO MUCH MORE than the old flaw with the Crown Vic fuel tank!!
Sen.Kennedy, thank you for your attempts to bring logic to DC- unfortunately your colleagues are deaf
Why don't they ever explain that trees and plants process CO2? That planting trees would be way more effective than anything the government wants to do? 🤔
I love how they just keep pushing the date out farther and farther.
Let me know when banks stop giving loans on beach front property and insurance companies stop insuring it.
Until then this is all a power and money grab
