We all knew this was going to happen – it was just a matter of “when”. As it turns out, it didn’t take very long at all.
Hours after a massive earthquake rattled Japan, environmental advocates connected the natural disaster to global warming. The president of the European Economic and Social Committee, Staffan Nilsson, issued a statement calling for solidarity in tackling the global warming problem.
“Some islands affected by climate change have been hit,” said Nilsson. “Has not the time come to demonstrate on solidarity – not least solidarity in combating and adapting to climate change and global warming?”
“Mother Nature has again given us a sign that that is what we need to do,” he added.
Lee Doren of the Competitive Enterprise Institute has been collecting some of the highlights – er, lowlights – via Twitter. See them here at The Daily Caller.
UPDATE: “Global warming alarmists are to natural disasters what the Westboro Baptist Church is to military funerals.” Just so.
UPDATE 2: Tim Blair on Anthropogenic Tectonic Warming®. You know it makes sense!
