Of course, the narrative is now that it was Obama giving another speech via TOTUS that caused Mubarak to resign, but, Science Blogs thinks differently
The Egyptian dictator, Hosni Mubarak, has resigned, finally relenting to weeks of massive protests. Is he the latest casualty of climate change?
This is a provacative question, but I believe one worth discussing. Obviously, there are always many factors in a people’s uprising, the precise balance of which will always be subjective and varied from protestor to protestor. But that doesn’t mean said factors can not be isolated and examined each on their own.
Like any extreme hot weather event, it is not possible to attribute this directly to a change in global climate, but like said weather event it is possible to identify contributing global factors, increases in probabilities, consistency with expectations. Political unrest is in fact an expectation of a rapidly changing climate, at least according to the US pentagon, and the chain of circumstances is not implausible or hard to follow. Erratic local climates lead to difficulties in food production, global or otherwise, which drive up the cost of living, which causes unrest in populations. When these populations are already restless due to poor economic conditions and inadequate human rights, this can trigger violent and non-violent popular uprisings.
See? It’s so easy! It was all the fault of globull warming. So much so that the author, coby (is that like Beyonce or Madonna?), actually has to tell us “This is not a laughable notion in the least, it is a very legitimate topic for conversation.” If you have to tell us it’s not a laughing matter, it pretty much is.
And our “rapidly changing climate” has decimated Mexico’s maize crops, and the globull warming induced cold has destroyed approximately 16% of the harvest. Could “climate change” cause a revolution in North Korea next? The globull warming cold has them worried about food security. And on a different note
U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-9) today reintroduced legislation that would save taxpayers millions of dollars by prohibiting the United States from contributing to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), an organization fraught with waste and engaged in dubious science.
Furthermore, the GOP spending bill would cut the EPA funding for “climate change” programs, and prohibit spending on the same.

In one sense Globull Warming is driving food born unrest.Climate Hysteria is causing the nitwits and dingbats in power here in this country to require us to burn food in our cars, driving up food prices and destroying our vehicles.

I figured it out. The one who is driving the Global Warming effort is a woman. That is because my wife, and all the women I know, feel that everything that goes wrong is my fault. So some woman is behind this pushing the fact that the climate is behind every bad thing that happens.
That’s the part that most of the hysterics wont discuss, Adobe, that so much of their insanity is causing much of the rise in prices.
Yeah, but, it’s all still probably your fault, David.

I blame David for us giving billions to the UN for no return. I also blame David, like Carter does, for us giving millions to Egypt that caused global warming that led to the unrest.
jk
Hey, here’s an idea, how about stopping all payments to the UN, all foreign subsidies to nations that are not HAPPY with us, and all subsidies to private and state organizations.
I agree it is all my fault. Certainly from the stand point of global warming, I have produced enough methane to definitely warm the plant, and several others.
