RUSH: We had a call and the caller chickened out, the caller hung up, the caller did not have the guts to ask the question directly. I get a one-line advisory about whatever the caller wants to talk about, and this guy wanted to know how can you square pollution with global warming or something. Snerdley said he said, ‘Well look, big fan of yours, listens to you all the time –‘ of course; who doesn’t? ‘– he’s got a problem with your stand on global warming. He lives in Boston. Since the 1900s –‘ how many cars did he say? Okay, 400% increase in what period of time? Not that it matters, but okay, ‘400% increase in the number of cars since the early 1900s,’ I think it would be more than that, but regardless. His point was, ‘Look, I live in Boston and you can see the pollution. You can see the haze.’

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We had a call and a caller chickened out. The
caller hung up. Caller did not have the guts to
ask me the question directly to Mr Snurgley, I saw
the you know, I get a one line at busary
about whatever the caller wants to talk about. And this
guy wanted to how can you square pollution with global
(00:20):
warming or something? Asked Mr Certainly? What was he going
to say? Mr? Certainly said, he said, well, look, big
fan of yours listens to you all the time. Of course,
who doesn't. He's got a problem with your stand on
global warming. How he says he lives in Boston assistance
the nine hundreds of how many cars? Did he say? Okay,
increase in all in what period of time? Not that
(00:42):
it matters, but what fo increase the number of cars
since the early d I think it would be more
than ever regardless. His point was, look, you I live
in Boston and you can see the pollution. You can
see the Hayes, you can look at my friends. Of
course you can. But it's not all generated by audibobiles.
(01:02):
If it were, there would be there would be small
levels in l A every day, and they would would
be may be consistent because the cars are there every day,
they would be constant, and they would increase as more
and more people buy cars, regardless of our mission efforts.
I've lived in New York City a lot of the
haze that you people think you're seeing, well, that you
(01:25):
are seeing, and it happens in the summertime. How often
do you see this haze in the winter, by the way,
you know, I do a lot of flying ladies and gentlemen.
And I flew back from Nueva Order on on Wednesday.
We got out of there and it was now it
was overcast a little bit. It was not it wasn't precipitating,
(01:46):
but the whole way back down the East coast, we
just we skimmed the East coast on the way down
so the satellite reception doesn't lose. We don't take the
shortcut out over the Atlantic. We skimmed the coast and
you look down it was a clear night most of
the way down. There was any hays out there. It
was as clear as it could and the same number
of cars that were there last summer down there. Now,
(02:07):
I've have you ever noticed if you live in a
in an area with hot muggy summers. Uh, and even
some of this that happens in the spring. In the fall.
Have you ever noticed what happens after a cold front
goes through poof it's as clear as a bell. I
heard this rigular roll when I lived out in Sacramento.
(02:27):
When I lived out in Sacramento, environmentals wackles would call
me and so they rushed. You know, years ago, you
go out there on I eighty on the way up
the hill to Lake Tahoe, and you could see the
snow caps up there in the Sierra Nevada, and uncertain
days you still could, but there were still the same
number of cars. I don't deny that cars are polluting.
(02:49):
A lot of what you're seeing is an ozone inversion.
By the way, it's not auto pollution. A lot of
haze is is low level ozone. Ozone is an atmospheric gas.
As we all know. Sometimes there's an inversion, and that's
when they give the old people and the people with
respiratory problems these advisories. Don't go outside. There's ozone out there,
and ozone is made by the sun. Ozone is not
(03:12):
made by automobiles. Now, don't folks, don't misunderstand here I
am not denying that the things that we do pollute.
What I'm telling you is that we do a better
job of cleaning up our messes than anywhere else in
the world that is as industrialized as as we are.
But it's it's something very simple. You've got pollution, you've
(03:33):
got ozone, you've got nugginess, you've got haze. How about
nat Cole roll out the lazy hazy Crez five are
singing about the haze. It's a common factor in the
summertimes called ozone. We haven't even heard of these global
warming nutcases they were getting. They were on the verge
then talking about global cooling and a new ice age.
(03:55):
Roll lazy, hazy, crazy days a moon. You know what
happens here, folks, is very simple. And I know that
the leftists in this audience and the drive buys it.
Here this they're gonna chalk up. What I'm gonna say
next is the perfect evidence that Limball just a simpleton.
But I'm just observing. What happens is that a coal
(04:18):
front comes through generally has rain, and rainwashes out the
dirt and sky. It's just amazing. Now, I maintain to
you people, is this is a little common sense here,
and of course I'm gonna get confirmation from this and
our official climatologist, Dr Roy Spencer, University of Alabama at Huntsville.
(04:45):
If all of our smokestacks, and if all of our automobiles,
and if all of our whatever else that we do
it at pollutes, if all of our cows methane is
responsible for this, it would be there every day and
nothing would get rid of it, because we are supplying
(05:05):
it every day. I have been in southern California on
days where it's clear as a bell. You have to
look hard to see the smog. I've seen days where
it's just impossible to see anything because of the smog.
Trees produced a little some of the ingredients that makes
smog not just audible beetles. I've seen this. But what
(05:27):
you need to ask yourself is how the hell can
it ever clear up? Then I know what you're gonna say, Well, rush,
mother nature trying. Mother Nature's trying. She trying to get
back to the way it was before we destroyed the environment.
But mother Nature can't keep up with us anymore. Eventually,
our autobiles started to put wrong folks wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
We have not that kind of power. If it ever,
(05:53):
if it didn't clear up, if those days of haze
didn't ever vanish, then maybe we can talk you people
that's so concerned about all this. You just need to
apply a little common sense and you need to drop
some of the vanity and some of the arrogance. We
are just human beings. We are equal opportunity residents of
(06:18):
this planet. We have every right to be here and
use our intelligence as we see fit with good stewardship.
We are the only living organisms on this planet that
can plan, that can think, that can adjust. Everything else
is living on the vasis of instinct, evolution, adaptation, or
what have you. They do things like my little cat.
(06:38):
You know, I love my little cat, Punkin. Cats have
been domesticated for ten thousand years. There's an argument raging
over whether we domesticated the cat or whether the cat
domesticated itself by just walking into the house one day,
uh and staying. But regardless, my little cat. Not every day,
(07:00):
but more often than not. I feed the little cat
two or three times a day, and I put the
food in a bowl. And if I watch the cat eat,
I watched punk and eat. She will after she finishes
start moving dirt over her food to hide it from
(07:21):
other animals. What she's doing is scratching a carpet, a
perfectly fine carpet. When I got her, she scratching the carpet,
she covered it. I'm looking at her, said Punky, nobody's
gonna take your food, Like what an idiot. She doesn't
know what I'm saying, and she doesn't know what she's doing.
She thinks she's still out there in the prehistoric age
(07:41):
protecting her food from predators. She's not thinking about it.
She doesn't's instinct. So you know, they do what they do.
We do what we do. We have stewardship, We have
dominance because we're smarter. We walk upright, we talk. They don't.
I know some of you pet owners think that you
and they may. I'm I don't want to get into that,
but you know what I'm talking about here. But even
(08:04):
to that, because this, see this gives us all kind
of vanity. We go out and capture King Kong. Well,
we are powerful. We can create a nuclear bob. Well,
we are powerful and we're dangerous. We can invent giant
airplanes that defy what appears to be logic. They weigh
gazillions of tons and they fly in the air. People
don't stop to think requires a lot of speed for
(08:24):
that to happen. But nevertheless, so we can do all
these things, we must be destroying the planet we don't
have if we wanted to. We don't know how to
do it. We don't know how to get rid of
the ozone at street level that we didn't cause. I
get so worn out going through all this because it's
just common sense, and it's also you need to have
(08:47):
a little humility to answer these questions. Common sense and humility.
Drop the vanity and drop the arrogance. Some of you
people believe this rock got amaze me. On the one hand,
you think we're no different than a rat, no different
than a dog, no different than a cat, no different
than a cow. On the other hand, we are so
invincible we can destroy a planet whose creation we cannot
(09:10):
even explain. We look into the sky at night, we
see the stars. We're lost. It takes faith be it.
And if you want to round be an agnostic, be
an atheist, or be a person of devout religious belief,
(09:30):
it still takes faith when you look up there to
try to understand it. Because You can't prove it, this
notion that we can destroy the planet, this notion that
Audibo biles I refuse to believe it. A god that
creates this kind of beauty would create human beings with
the ability to destroy the planet while enhancing their lives,
while improving their lives, while expanding their life expectancy. That's
(09:52):
not the God that I know. Russia are bringing religion
is so are they the global warming crowd and nothing
but religion. They have a different god. It's either a tree,
it's a mountain, a humming bird, you know, whatever the
hell they choose to worship. They can't prove what they
believe either, although they try to make you think that
(10:14):
they can. A couple of sound bites on this, and
I'm really worried. I know Chad Myers. I've met Chad
Lee two or three times. Chad's a great meteorologist and
he works at CNN, but perhaps not for long. By
(10:34):
the way, did you know CNN, in a massive round
of budget cuts, closed down their global warming unit Miles O'Brien,
who used to run their space unit. They got rid
of Miles, and when Miles went, they you know, all
this hoity toity Bologna about global warming, went with the
Weather Channel, owned now by NBC, got rid of their
(10:59):
glow Will warming climate change you? Why it must be?
There wasn't much of an audience for all the documentaries
and specials they were doing. They just zapped them. So
last night CNN's lou Dobbs Tonight Weatherman Chad Myers was on.
Dobbs said, Chad, Lee, you're seeing anything here that directly
(11:23):
is tied to something called global warming. Fossil fuels man made,
which is the dominant influence overall on weather? Is it cycles,
solar spun, sunspots, solar flares, the eleven year cycle? Is
that dominant? What? What? What's dominant in terms of influencing
the weather. To think that we could affect weather all
that much is pretty arrogant. Mother nature is so big,
The world is so big, that the oceans are so big.
(11:44):
I think we're gonna die from a lack of fresh water.
We're gonna die from ocean acidification before we die from
global warming, for sure. But this is like you know,
you said in your career, my career has been twenty
two years long. That's a good career and TV. But
in talking about climate like having a car for three
days and say this is a great car. Well, yeah
it was for three days, but maybe in day five, six,
(12:06):
and seven it won't be so good. And that's what
we're doing here. We have a hundred years worth of data,
not millions of years that the world's been around, Chad Lely,
we do have I know that this is at c
and is on Lou Dobbs. Last night. The only saving grace,
as he might with was on Lou Dobbs and not
in a weather forecast. Uh, but this is this is
this is that Chad Lee Myers. But chadle we do
(12:28):
have a historical data, not records, but we can go
back and look. We can see when the earth was frozen.
We see what happened to dinosaurs. We can see we
have a lot of data be on a hundred years
that shows all kinds of warming and cooling cycles that
had nothing to do with whatever humanity at the time
was doing. Also on Lou Dabbs, he said. Jay's got
(12:48):
Jay Lair, who was the science director the heart Land Institution. Jay,
We've been around a little over by scientific estimates, four
point five billion years. What's your thought about the dominant
influence on the weather clearly low it is the sun.
But if we go back in really recorded human history
in the thirteenth century, we were probably seven degrees fahrenheit
(13:09):
warmer than we are now, and it was a very
prosperous time for mankind. If we go back to the
Revolutionary War three hundred years ago, it was very, very cold.
We've been warming out of that cold spell from the
Revolutionary War period, and now we're back into a cooling cycle.
Of the last ten years have been quite cool, and
right now I think we're going into cooling rather than warming,
(13:31):
and that should be a much greater concern for humankind.
But all we can do is adapt. It is the
sun that does it. Not slam, she'll slam, And anybody
with common sense would realize it has to be the sun.
By the way, Chadley, we're gonna die from old age
natural causes before we get killed by ocean acidification or
(13:54):
lack of fresh water. Just my predictions. The sun is
causing it. It's it has to be the major factor.
You don't believe me. Imagine waking up tomorrow morning, turning
on the news and hearing the sun mysteriously went out
We're dead folks. If that ever happen it we're dead
(14:14):
back and you want to talk about warming? Nick and Saulisbury, Maryland.
Nice to have you on the E I B Networks
or Hello, hello Mr Doing. Oh by the way, this
this is the guy who hung up? What your phone died?
I'm told, now, who wanted to talk to me about
cars and pollution? And how can I be? So? Yeah,
(14:35):
give it your best shot? Answered, I answered your question,
But he has a follow up. I'm told, yes, well,
you have an excellent uh A line on that, and
I appreciate that because I'm a fan of yours. And
what I gotta say is, that's by the way, you
hang on just a second, my friends, will I appreciate
(14:58):
all of you who call say I'm a big and
it's not that unique anymore to be a big fan,
So it's no big. Don't expect extra credit for telling
me you're a big fan. Now what was you were saying? Well,
I said, you said, we don't have the power to
affect anything on the earth as a as humans. No, nope,
I said, we don't have the power to affect the climate.
(15:20):
We cannot We cannot steer a hurricane we can't stop one,
we can't dissipate one, we can't create one. We can't
steer a tornado. And we can't stop snowstorms. We can't
stop ice. But we can't stop or start anything like that,
nothing of major catastrophic consequence. It's absurd. Okay, we can
make grass grow with a little you know, a sprinkler.
(15:40):
All right, hang on now, we don't have a button
we can push to make things happen, right, but we
do have abbots habits that we have that can make
things as far as our habits go, that make things happen.
Like if I take my roof shingles out back and
light them on fire and make a big black smoke
up in the back. Now, what would you say if
you are my neighbor, I'd say you're stupid, right exactly.
(16:05):
So that's what that's what our gor saying. He's saying,
you're my neighbor, and you're Look at the example you
just gave me. Do you know anybody other than fraudulent
insurance claims of people sitting their shingles on fire? Well,
you've got up things. No, No, no, the neighborhood, this
is me. You come up. No, you come up with these.
(16:27):
You if you're going to do an analogy, it has
to be analogous. Okay, we'll hang on. Here's here's here's
the here's here's the better analogy. Here's the better analogy.
Lightning strikes a major forest in southern California and two
fifty homes are destroyed, and big black clouds are in
the sky. We didn't do damn thing. And there's more
(16:49):
pollution there than your shingles or your car. And then
a rainstorm comes in and all the evidence of the
smoke is gone.
We had a call and a caller chickened out. The
caller hung up. Caller did not have the guts to
ask me the question directly to Mr Snurgley, I saw
the you know, I get a one line at busary
about whatever the caller wants to talk about. And this
guy wanted to how can you square pollution with global
(00:20):
warming or something? Asked Mr Certainly? What was he going
to say? Mr? Certainly said, he said, well, look, big
fan of yours listens to you all the time. Of course,
who doesn't. He's got a problem with your stand on
global warming. How he says he lives in Boston assistance
the nine hundreds of how many cars? Did he say? Okay,
increase in all in what period of time? Not that
(00:42):
it matters, but what fo increase the number of cars
since the early d I think it would be more
than ever regardless. His point was, look, you I live
in Boston and you can see the pollution. You can
see the Hayes, you can look at my friends. Of
course you can. But it's not all generated by audibobiles.
(01:02):
If it were, there would be there would be small
levels in l A every day, and they would would
be may be consistent because the cars are there every day,

that dominant? What? What? What's dominant in terms of influencing
the weather. To think that we could affect weather all
that much is pretty arrogant. Mother nature is so big,
The world is so big, that the oceans are so big.
(11:44):
I think we're gonna die from a lack of fresh water.
We're gonna die from ocean acidification before we die from
global warming, for sure. But this is like you know,
you said in your career, my career has been twenty
two years long. That's a good career and TV. But
in talking about climate like having a car for three
days and say this is a great car. Well, yeah
it was for three days, but maybe in day five, six,
(12:06):
and seven it won't be so good. And that's what
we're doing here. We have a hundred years worth of data,
not millions of years that the world's been around, Chad Lely,
we do have I know that this is at c
and is on Lou Dobbs. Last night. The only saving grace,
as he might with was on Lou Dobbs and not
in a weather forecast. Uh, but this is this is
this is that Chad Lee Myers. But chadle we do
(12:28):
have a historical data, not records, but we can go
back and look. We can see when the earth was frozen.
We see what happened to dinosaurs. We can see we
have a lot of data be on a hundred years
that shows all kinds of warming and cooling cycles that
had nothing to do with whatever humanity at the time
was doing. Also on Lou Dabbs, he said. Jay's got
(12:48):
Jay Lair, who was the science director the heart Land Institution. Jay,
We've been around a little over by scientific estimates, four
point five billion years. What's your thought about the dominant
influence on the weather clearly low it is the sun.
But if we go back in really recorded human history
in the thirteenth century, we were probably seven degrees fahrenheit
(13:09):
warmer than we are now, and it was a very
prosperous time for mankind. If we go back to the
Revolutionary War three hundred years ago, it was very, very cold.
We've been warming out of that cold spell from the
Revolutionary War period, and now we're back into a cooling cycle.
Of the last ten years have been quite cool, and
right now I think we're going into cooling rather than warming,
(13:31):
and that should be a much greater concern for humankind.
But all we can do is adapt. It is the
sun that does it. Not slam, she'll slam, And anybody
with common sense would realize it has to be the sun.
By the way, Chadley, we're gonna die from old age
natural causes before we get killed by ocean acidification or
(13:54):
lack of fresh water. Just my predictions. The sun is
causing it. It's it has to be the major factor.
You don't believe me. Imagine waking up tomorrow morning, turning
on the news and hearing the sun mysteriously went out
We're dead folks. If that ever happen it we're dead
(14:14):
back and you want to talk about warming? Nick and Saulisbury, Maryland.
Nice to have you on the E I B Networks
or Hello, hello Mr Doing. Oh by the way, this
this is the guy who hung up? What your phone died?
I'm told, now, who wanted to talk to me about
cars and pollution? And how can I be? So? Yeah,
(14:35):
give it your best shot? Answered, I answered your question,
But he has a follow up. I'm told, yes, well,
you have an excellent uh A line on that, and
I appreciate that because I'm a fan of yours. And
what I gotta say is, that's by the way, you
hang on just a second, my friends, will I appreciate
(14:58):
all of you who call say I'm a big and
it's not that unique anymore to be a big fan,
So it's no big. Don't expect extra credit for telling
me you're a big fan. Now what was you were saying? Well,
I said, you said, we don't have the power to
affect anything on the earth as a as humans. No, nope,
I said, we don't have the power to affect the climate.
(15:20):
We cannot We cannot steer a hurricane we can't stop one,
we can't dissipate one, we can't create one. We can't
steer a tornado. And we can't stop snowstorms. We can't
stop ice. But we can't stop or start anything like that,
nothing of major catastrophic consequence. It's absurd. Okay, we can
make grass grow with a little you know, a sprinkler.
(15:40):
All right, hang on now, we don't have a button
we can push to make things happen, right, but we
do have abbots habits that we have that can make
things as far as our habits go, that make things happen.
Like if I take my roof shingles out back and
light them on fire and make a big black smoke
up in the back. Now, what would you say if
you are my neighbor, I'd say you're stupid, right exactly.
(16:05):
So that's what that's what our gor saying. He's saying,
you're my neighbor, and you're Look at the example you
just gave me. Do you know anybody other than fraudulent
insurance claims of people sitting their shingles on fire? Well,
you've got up things. No, No, no, the neighborhood, this
is me. You come up. No, you come up with these.
(16:27):
You if you're going to do an analogy, it has
to be analogous. Okay, we'll hang on. Here's here's here's
the here's here's the better analogy. Here's the better analogy.
Lightning strikes a major forest in southern California and two
fifty homes are destroyed, and big black clouds are in
the sky. We didn't do damn thing. And there's more
(16:49):
pollution there than your shingles or your car. And then
a rainstorm comes in and all the evidence of the
smoke is gone.
