“This Isn’t a Natural Disaster”: Climate Scientist Michael Mann on Deadly Tornadoes in 8 States
Democracy Now! 
At least 100 people are feared dead after 30 deadly tornadoes devastated towns in eight states, from Kentucky to Arkansas, in a supercell thunderstorm that raged more than 200 miles, leaving behind scenes some compared to a war zone. President Biden has declared a major federal disaster and called for an investigation into the role climate change played in the storms. We speak to climate scientist Michael Mann about the role of climate change in the storms and climate denialism among Republican leaders. “Make no mistake, we have been seeing an increase in these massive tornado outbreaks that can be attributed to the warming of the planet,” says Mann, director of the Earth System Science Center at Penn State University.

This was planned ,they have been spraying the sky for years ,chem trails ,they can control this with microways,,also keep in mind they have been using thr term "dark winter" since beginning of summer,they actually have to get rid of some of the population to be able to control people ,when supplies run out,cant any of you see the set up?
Weather manipulation?
climate change liars should first end the current global poverty if they really care.
climate change is a natural phenomenon.
You people always say mother nature, mother nature. But the bible say isaiah 29vs6. You ungodly people that's your problem Read.
Covid-19 protests against Big Pharma are actually the very same struggle as protests against big fossil fuel corporations over the damage causing climate change. And this is not political, it is not Dem v. Rep. This is about the health and welfare of the masses against big powerful corporations and the corporate capture of our regulatory agencies.
Keep ignoring GOD, doesn't gonna make him not punish you for your arrogance. God visit you in the tempest, fire, earthquake, strong winds, isaiah 29vs6, you scientist people don't know nothing. Stop lying.
Yeah and they conveniently don't talk about China, the US, Europe working on Hydrogen fusion with artificial sun's like the Tokamak in China that can create weather systems or the fact that the giant superconductors of Google AI can create a weather system. The new pollution is the search for nuclear fusion.
Boy cott Amazon
“ Democracy now”?.??? Corrupt “ scientists” and media to atribute these to human is scandalous, selling these lies to public to pay Biden’s gang the gigantic amount of money that people will be obliged to enslave themselves to pay! Mafia is a normal politics today, media and “scientists “ backing “ Bill back better” a world scam in human history! Shame on you, the fat and the witch , shut up criminals !
This man, MM is a documented liar. Famous for the Hockey Stick Hoax.
Why do they call Yah's judgement climate change? Well lets see you try to explain away what is coming next. Let Yah people Go!!!!!
This is not climate change, why do they keep lying. This is judgement against the evil on this planet. This is spiritual judgement. You can call it what you want but it’s retribution and NOTHING is going to stop it.
They are weakening the tectonic plates. So no surprise that this happen
Its comical how people can be talked into believing anything! What ever nature does is natural, that's why "nature" is in the word? Brainwashed!
And…. JOE MANCHIN denys subsidising THE COAL INDUSTRY and lies, lies, and lies.!! AND, he widtholds support to BBB plan with Democrats.
WTF?
What's all that about!
The Jetstream is out of it's "banks" because of the moving and weakening magnetic field of the earth. This has been observed since the Carrington Event in 1859, which if it occurred today would end the technology we depend on for survival. It's the 🌞🌞🌞😎😎😎, not some CO2. CO2 is essential for life on this planet, and we're at a third of the concentration at which many of the plants we depend on evolved. It's the gas of life, not a pollutant. Stop drinking the Cool-Aid and look at the truth.
Did that climate scientist Mann actually say carbon pollution? shame on him, The guy makes millions from his crap science, proven in court to be manipulated,
BACK 2THE MINE
JUST SMH
You're right it isn't a natural desaster. Its men reaping the works of their own hands.
INDUSTRIAL WIND IS A SCAM !! 50 INDUSTRIAL WIND TURBINES IN N.H ONLY PRODUCE TWO POINT FIVE PERCENT OF N.H ELECTRICITY. ..EACH SITE DESTROYED APPROXIMATELY 1,700 ACRES OF STEEP SLOPE WATER SHEDS, CARBON ABSORBING FORESTS, WILDLIFE HABITAT, RURAL CONSERVATION LAND, AND THE NATURAL BEAUTY, & VEIW FROM EVERYWHERE…NOT TO MENTION THE SOUND POLLUTION!! ALTERNATIVES…SUBSIDIZE SMALL WIND, SOLAR, GEO THERMAL, & WEATHERIZATION FOR PROPERTY OWNERS…REDUCE CONSUMPTION, REUSE EVERYTHING, RECYCLE EVERYTHING BY BUILDING RECYCLING INFRASTRUCTURE…BURN LEFTOVER TRASH IN CLEAN BURNING PLASMA BURNERS TO PRODUCE ELECTRICITY!! TAX UN-RECYCLABLE PLASTIC OUT OF EXISTANCE, STOP CONSUMING THE EARTH, ZERO POPULATION GROWTH, BUY LOCAL, EAT LESS MEAT, EAT MORE BEANS, BUY SECOND HAND, DRIVE LESS, LET'S HAVE A 4 DAY WORK / SCHOOL WEEK, FLY LESS, CARBON CREDITS FOR EVERYONE THAT WE CAN TRADE LIKE BITCOIN, BUILD SMALLER HOUSES, NOT BIGGER, TAX SECOND HOMES MORE, CAP METHANE…..R.R.R.
Houses need to be built stronger from now on. Those disasters will repeat!
Climate change deniers do not denie Climate change but they say the cause is not fossil fuels , increasing C02 in atmosphere , The cause is outside the control of Mankind. 95 per cent reason for climate change and weather extremes we are now increasingly experiencing on earth is due to changing solar influences . THE SUN .
Natural???
Geo-engineered /weather modification.
IDIOTS
Your Government is doing this !!!!
HARP
“Don’t look up” brought me here babe
This "expert" is either no expert, paid off, or the cat has his tongue. He didn't mention that every planet (including moons) have been heating up & experiencing extremely anomalous atmospheric changes. Is the inverse rotation of Plutos climate caused by anthropogenic carbon emissions here on Earth? Is the great storm on Jupiter changing color & size due to anthropogenic carbon emissions here on Earth? The entire solar system is heating up…not just Earth. I'm just so tired of hearing flat out BS from "experts". When I know they know the truth, but refuse to tell it. We've been actively controlling weather since the 60s. Lyndon B. Johnson was the first to admit this, almost 60yrs ago.
These buildings are far too weak…what a mess
Michael is cashing in on this disaster..useless books telling us what we know
There is no force on earth more dangerous to your life than people hating, control freak scientists. They are happy to allow the most impoverished billions suffer no energy development now while the rest in the developed areas will be dealt a slower but certain death. The population goal is less than 500,000,000 worldwide. You are probably not on their valued list.
Michael what the hell emissions are rising even during a slower Covid economy the Thwaites glacier is ready to start its collapse and n 3 to 5 years instead of 150 years into the future
Is it possible that geo engineering has something to do with it?
BULLSHIT. YOU SON'S OF BITCHES MURDERED CHARLES MANSON WHEN HE BROUGHT THIS UP. WEAR WERE YOU ASSHOLE WHEN CHARLIE NEEDED YOU? SPIN !!!!! ROTATION!!!!! GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE.
WHO CARES? WHILE YOU SPEAK BLACK ROCK IS STILL DESTROYING THE AMAZON WHILE THEY LET CHARLES MANSON BODY ROT IN THE HEAT TO SHOW THE DISRESPECT AND HOW MUCH SOMEONE OF POWER WAS THAT UPSET BECAUSE CHARLIE MANSON BROUGHT UP THIS TOPIC.
Michael Mann is a researcher at Penn State but he should be in the State Pen
It's all lies. Stop buying into this garbage when science and history both prove it's bullshit.
Preaching to the choir. People are barely surviving right now including myself, I have nor the time, the money or the energy to involve myself. Like I have an extra 30,000 in my bank account to buy an electric piece of shit car. All this fear mongering and division of the media is turning this country into a cesspool of hate and brainwashing. The comments on this video alone are so pathetic. Nation full of pussies that don’t know anything accept what big daddy media and political parties tell them to think. Can’t wait for the meteor to take this entire planet out.
except that the current weather patterns have nothing to do with our climate it is a total lie that tornadoes and hurricanes are more prevalent than they were 50 years ago…..and Dr Mann knows this fact
It's not climate change. It's weather modification. MAN MADE. LETS GET IT DEFINED PROPERLY.
No one talk about the H.a.a.r.p machine? The machine can control the weather maybe u guyz need to checked that
Or you can just start building real houses out of concrete and cement like the rest of the world?
Human cause a couple of % change for sure. But naturally the Earth would warm up snd cool down, as it always has been the case.
It was a war zone. Our own government is purposely using HAARP against everyone.
What a horrible fraud of a man
H.A.A.R.P. system Wake Up!!!!
The HAARP project directs a 3.6 MW signal, in the 2.8–10 MHz region of the HF band, into the ionosphere and it effects weather. ie. Tornados, Hurricanes, Earthquakes.
No climate change.
Until all global weather modification programs are made public not a single climate change computer model can be taken seriously.
Also the the same programs have been used for c19 and look how completely compromised that was.
Follow the money not the hype.
Watching from May 2024, Nothing Micheal E. Mann Proposes comes true and we are at a regular 1.6C Anomaly for the last year. The dude never knew what he is talking about and only ever wanted to sell books. Tornado Outbreaks are even more severe and intense and we are in an El Nino,
You are kidding Right? Biden ok'd the Willow Project in pristine Alaska North Slope, plus sold 620 Million Acres of Oil Leases in the Gulf of Mexico, Ok'd a Massive Refinery Project in the Gulf and allowed Manchin a Fracking Pipeline in WV as part of the ridiculous Debt Ceiling agreement. Blue MAGA is just as delusional as Red MAGA. The Ds' don't give a damn about Climate Chaos and M4A is not even in their platform.
Carbon emissions keep going up in 2024, Micheal E. Mann is a dumbass.
