Fox News Mocks Security Threat To Small Islands Posed By Climate Change
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld dismissed the notion that small island states face an existential threat from climate change. However, studies have shown that ongoing climate change has severe consequences for the habitability of many small islands.UN Security Council Considered Security Threat Posed By Climate Change, Especially To Small Island States. The Guardian reported on July 20:
A special meeting of the United Nations security council is due to consider whether to expand its mission to keep the peace in an era of climate change.
Small island states, which could disappear beneath rising seas, are pushing the security council to intervene to combat the threat to their existence.
There has been talk, meanwhile, of a new environmental peacekeeping force - green helmets - which could step into conflicts caused by shrinking resources. [The Guardian,7/20/11]
Fox's Gutfeld: "They Actually Believe That, Like, Small Island States Are Going To Disappear."From the July 21 edition of Fox News' The Five:
GREG GUTFELD: U.N. Security Council is considering climate change peacekeeping. And they're having a meeting to discuss whether they should intervene in conflicts, due to rising sea levels. They actually believe that, like, small island states are going to disappear because of climate change. And there are even people that are saying, and this is at the U.N., that climate change is worse than terrorism. Is that amazing, Eric?
ERIC BOLLING: The U.N. and tree huggers are kind of like the Mickey Mouse Club for liberals so they feel better about themselves, meanwhile at our taxpayer dime. That's the problem. Neither one work.

GUTFELD: How can you build an entire U.N. initiative on a science that everybody is debating anyway?
BOB BECKEL: Nobody is debating. Flat earth people are debating it.
GUTFELD: Do you believe that small islands are disappearing?
BECKEL: Yes.
GUTFELD: You do. Show me a small island that has disappeared.
BECKEL: If it disappeared I couldn't show it to you, could I?
GUTFELD: Well done, my friend. Well played. You got me. [Fox News, The Five, 7/21/11]Read the full article:
