ABC Reporter Lectures Americans On Climate Change From Africa

gma abc victoria falls africaReporting live from Victoria Falls in central Africa for Wednesday’s Good Morning America, ABC’s chief meteorologist Ginger Zee used the spectacular location to lecture American viewers about climate change.

It was all part of the network’s new Extraordinary Earth series leading up to the 50th anniversary of Earth Day in April.

Standing alongside National Geographic photographer Nichole Sobecki, with the falls in the background, Zee proclaimed: “…we’ve been talking and I know that the U.S. and China, China being number one, U.S. number two right now, are the biggest carbon emitters.”

Sobecki then brushed China aside and hyped America as the real culprit:

Right now, the U.S. and China are the largest emitters. But we have to remember that the historic record for carbon emissions is held by the U.S. Throughout history we have put more carbon into the atmosphere than any other country.

And you have to realize that we’re 4% of the population and we’re responsible for somewhere between a quarter to a third of all global carbon emissions.

Zee uttered “wow” in response, explaining moments later: “And carbon emissions being related to climate change.” Sobecki confirmed: “That’s what’s warming our planet.”

Sobecki pleaded: “You know, climate change doesn’t have borders. You know, if we’re going to move forward and we’re going to adapt to the challenges to come and those already underway through climate change, we have to do that together….collectively to help take care of our planet.”

“I edge on fear sometimes,” Zee admitted regarding climate change, but she declared that “this has made me very hopeful, hopeful that there are people doing the right thing.”

As evidence of that hope, she hailed: “There are parts of Africa, you were telling me, where plastic bags have been banned and you even get fined. So I feel like there are things we can do to clean this planet up and I know people are doing them. We just have to start.”

Sobecki concluded: “We can do a lot better, and we need to.”

Apparently this is the kind of liberal scolding GMA viewers can look forward to over the next two months.

    Climate changes , always has , thankfully it is warming and greening due to higher levels of C02 which has historically been higher before Volvos and jets .
    The proposition that by reducing made generated CO2 we are going to “tackle”
    climate change is laughable .
    Enjoy the warming while it lasts . NY City under a mile of ice again just won’t be fun .

    The high priests of CC have deemed CO2 emissions as the greatest sin against Gaia. Little do they realize that Gaia cannot continue to be green without it. Never mind facts, “off with their heads” you deniers!!!

    OMG! Damn the facts…. The Climate alarmists are just spewing utter BS.

    In the year 1700 China had a population of 100 million people. The U.S. population did NOT get to 100 million people until the mid-1900’s.

      CO2 increase began in the 1850s with the burning of fossil fuels.

        The increase in atmospheric CO2 began after the last ice age. And thank God for that because there was barely enough to support plant life.

          The 40% increase of CO2 into the atmosphere since 1850 is man-made.

    Another point: What in the world do plastic bags have to do with climate change? Sure, it’s an environmental concern, but stick to your story, IDIOTS.

    America is 4 percent of world population emitting 25 percent of the world’s human-release CO2. Accepting this as a basic fact, shall we all assume that America can do its part for the world by reducing its industrial output to 4 percent of the worldwide total? That would be a huge catastrophe by any measure. It might even mean the end of National Geographic and GMA!

      Your figures on America’s emisssions do not take into account the TOTAL American emisssions over the past 100 years which would be a MUCH BIGGER fraction.

        So? Termites make CO2 out of wood. Natural sources are the biggest contributors to the carbon cycle, by far. Are you going to single out AMERICAN termites, too? Amazonian termites are far better at it, they produce 24/7/365.

          The CO2 made naturally or by burning fossil fuels have a different isotope or chemical signature.

          The extra 40% of CO2 that has been added into the atmosphere over the past 150 years is man-made.

    What a bunch of freeking morons!
    Lesson 1: CARBON IS NOT HEATING THE ATMOSPHERE.
    Lesson 2: Carbon Dioxide is the substance in question and it is presently performing at maximum capacity as a greenhouse gas in the earth’s atmosphere. Additional concentrations of CO2 will not demonstrably contribute to heating of the planet.
    Good God – Can you people at least get your basic facts in order?

      You just need to go to YouTube to see the dozens of observational and experimental videos which show CO2 heating the atmosphere.

      It is simple physics.

    Television really is the dumbest of all media, (except Fox News). First, it’s not carbon that’s emitted – it’s Carbon Dioxide (CO2). And CO2 is the basic ingredient molecule of life on earth. Without it, all life dies. And the biosphere has been on a 600 million year natural slide downwards from 7000ppm. Towards the oblivion of too little of life’s essential gas. A little more of it has greened the planet, shrunk deserts, and brought a string of world record crop yields. In spite of twelve million year highs of CO2, what it hasn’t done is affect the climate. We remain right smack on the average of the last twelve thousand year interglacial, the Holocene. So much for television’s understanding of climate -or
    CO2.
