Speaker 1: By the way, speaking going now from electric vehicles to climate change more broadly,
we've talked before about this. It snowed in winter, so climate change must be made up.
We've talked about that idea before. We've heard it often on Fox News. Many right wingers love to
point out when it's cold in winter somewhere, it must disprove climate change, part of which is
record high temperatures during certain parts of the year. Well,
Tucker Carlson is throwing his hat into the ring on this. Tucker Carlson, in a segment during which
he blurts out a string of lies, seems to say that the existence of winter disproves climate change.
These people, do you think they even believe this stuff themselves? But they're not laughing
anymore. The Europeans have discovered that the real threat to human civilization is not
global warming. It never was global warming. The real threat to people is global cooling, otherwise
known as winter. Far more people freeze to death every year than die of heat in 2019, for example.
Four times as many people died of cold as of heat. Now that if you have been watching the show,
you know, I already debunked that about a month ago. And we'll get back to those numbers in a
moment. That's according to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. So when
temperatures in Europe begin to drop a few months from now, this is right because it's winter. Huge
problem. And that will be obvious to everyone. It's not global warming. It's global cooling.
That's what's going to kill your grandmother. And when everyone understands that perfectly well,
a lot of things are going to happen. The status quo. Quo will crumble. Factories will close.
Unemployment will rise. Disposable income will disappear. It's going to be an economy crushing
dystopia as soon as all of that happens. Now, much of what Tucker Carlson is saying is just wrong.
And I know intuitively, maybe that's obvious, but let's talk about it. Let's talk about what kills
more heat or cold. Heat kills more than cold. If you look globally. Right. I mean, we're we're a
planet here. We have an earth as Donald Trump. We have a world as Donald Trump once said,
way more people on Earth have the ability to heat their environment when it's cold than the number
that have the ability to cool their environment when it's hot. In other words, more people have
heat than air conditioning, heat related death. Over time, more than 5 million people die each
year globally because of excessively hot or cold conditions. Okay, the heat related deaths
continue to climb. If you asked the question which kills more extreme heat or extreme cold,
you look at the data from Noah and Noah has found that on average in the United States,
there's 134 heat related deaths versus 30 cold related deaths on I believe that's a per capita
adjusted number. So Tucker Carlson is wrong about what he's saying now. Maybe you think Tucker can't
possibly be this stupid. No one could possibly be this stupid. And he's saying these things knowing
that they're not true. Well, that may absolutely be true. He may just be lying. It's still really
bad for him to tell those lies, but he may just be lying. And it is stunning. You know,
he talks about Europe. It's very popular to make fun of Europe if you're an American right winger.
Europe, by and large, understands and accepts the science on this stuff.
And they look at the American right wing and they say, what the hell is wrong with
people? I understand wanting lower taxes. I even understand wanting less regulation,
all things being equal, but denying the science of climate change, that doesn't make any sense.
And indeed it doesn't. Indeed it doesn't. He may be just lying, but it's still really bad. We'll
have that Tucker clip on our Instagram, which you can find at David Pakman show
