“We just got five feet of snow in Washington,” said Obama, when asked about alternative energy projects during a town hall meeting in Nevada.
“Opponents of climate change, they say — ‘see look at that, there is all this snow on the ground — this doesn’t mean anything.'”
“I want to just be clear that the science of climate change doesn’t mean every place is getting warmer — it means the planet as a whole is getting warmer.”
