With planet-killing bottled water in front of him, warmist Joe Romm invokes Lincoln, Churchill, and "ruin that lasts 50 generations" in an effort to convince House members that CO2 is overheating the planet

My Oral Testimony For House Hearing Today On Bark Beetles, Drought And Wildfires | ThinkProgress
In fact, we’re already topping Dust Bowl temperatures in many places – and the Earth has warmed only about 1 degree Fahrenheit since the 1930s Dust Bowl. Yet we are poised to warm some 10 degree Fahrenheit this century if we stay on our current path of unrestricted carbon pollution emissions...Much of our country would see far higher temperatures. The recent heat wave would be considered a pleasantly, cool summer...If we fail to take action, many scientists predict ruin for large parts of this country – ruin for large parts of your districts – ruin that lasts 50 generations. Americans have fought for generations to defend government of the people, by the people, for the people. In the hour of crisis, we need that government to do its job. Now is that hour.
