On Thursday afternoon, MSNBC fill-in host Cori Coffin gave environmental alarmist Michael Mann a forum to blame “human-caused” global warming for extreme weather events from 2022, including the blizzard that just hit the U.S.
While the segment mentioned record-high temperatures that occurred in some parts of the world, the recent record-low temperatures were not addressed. [emphasis, links added]
At 1:49 p.m. Eastern, introducing a pre-recorded report by NBC weathercaster Dylan Dreyer, Coffin recalled:
The deadly Christmas storm that has the city of Buffalo still reeling was only the latest example in a year of extreme climate events here at home and across the globe.
From record flooding and heat to wildfires, snowstorms and hurricanes, 2022 had it all. NBC’s Dylan Dreyer takes a look at how climate change made a wild year for us, and the swings this year as well.
Dreyer recounted some of the extreme weather events from the year, and then tied “climate change” to record-high temperatures:
Climate change causing the atmosphere to be warmer and wetter, making conditions ripe for these types of events. … This summer was a story of extremes. Europe had its most intense heat wave in recorded history. London set a historic all-time high of 104 degrees.
After asserting that there were six “thousand-year floods” in the U.S., Dreyer concluded by also tying in the recent blizzard without specifying that some places had temperatures at a record low:
Then, a historic and deadly bomb cyclone crippled half the country over the holidays, bringing with it plummeting temperatures, blizzard conditions lasting nearly 40 hours, and 50 inches of snow. The storm pushed the city of Buffalo into the record books. It’s the city’s snowiest start to the season ever — at least 100 inches and counting…
After Mann was brought in live to comment, he also blamed global warming for the blizzard without mentioning just how cold it got:
“Some people think that it’s somehow inconsistent that we see these bigger snowfalls as a result of climate change and global warming, but it is entirely consistent with the underlying physics.”
The leftist scientist from Pennsylvania State University went on to praise the environmental regulations recently passed by the Democrat-controlled Congress:
It can be possible that we’re seeing substantial progress while there isn’t enough progress. … in the most recent U.N. climate conference in Sharm-el-Sheikh … more than a month ago where we didn’t see the sorts of commitments that we might have wanted to see to rapidly phasing out coal and other fossil fuels.
Mann loved the “aggressive” action pushed in Biden’s so-called Inflation Reduction Act:
At the same time, we saw substantial progress when it comes to dealing with the, you know, the assistance to the developing world and countries that don’t have the sort of infrastructure that we have in dealing with the impacts that they’re already feeling.
And we saw the most aggressive climate bill ever signed into law here in the United States … the climate provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act — which are going to make a real difference and bring the United States back to the lead when it comes to global climate action.

We are ten times safer from the climate than we were a century ago. Cold kills 80 times the number of people than heat does. AND A LACK OF ENERGY KILLS 300 TIMES THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAN CLIMATE! Michael Mann has done enough damage. Time to quit paying attention to his fake climate crisis. It kills far too many people. Unlike the climate. Here are some of many who actually understand the climate and the environment. Unlike the Venus obsessed Dr. Mann. Dr. John Christy, who along with Dr. Roy Spencer points out the complete failure of a 0.04% of the atmosphere CO2 driven climate. “there isn’t any change in these extreme events, so what is the problem you are trying to solve?” Over 100 hypochondriacal CO2-driven climate models completely exaggerate CO2’s effect on temperature – by a great deal. And ignore entirely the solely beneficial effect of more of our carbon-based life’s source of carbon – CO2. Whose ability to convert sunlight into living energy has spread green pigmented life over the entire earth. Through arguably the most important metabolism of the environment – photosynthesis. This green metabolism not only converts sunlight, CO2, and water to the living high-energy carbon compound sugar. It provides our carbon-based life its carbon. So, life’s green colour. All of life’s carbon. All of life’s energy. And as a bonus, all of the oxygen required for the entire Animal Kingdom to breathe. And Dr. Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace. The only founder with a degree. Who strongly points out the benefits of more CO2 to our environment. Ignore YouTube’s fraudulent disclaimer. It’s just part of the corruption of an uneducated social media. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnJ3qhLAWC0
A Mann-made crisis.
How would Mann explain the 45 year span between this latest storm and the blizzards of ’77/’78? Back then there was no evidence or talk of global warming. The moisture necessary for these events comes from a local lake, not global humidity. Mann invokes “the underlying physics” , but he is a shill for a socialist scam, not a practitioner of disciplined science.
