Marco Rubio still doesn’t think that human activity is responsible for climate change, even as his home state of Florida braces for utter destruction as a result.
Rubio, who represents the climate change-imperiled state of Florida in the U.S. Senate, has taken a lot of heat for denying the role that humans are playing in climate change, but at the same time, he has received partial credit for acknowledging that the climate is changing. Rubio’s semantic trickery is not an admission that he believes in climate change. It is simply a tool that allows him to play both sides. He can construe his statement to “prove” that he accepts the reality of climate change, or he can downplay its meaning and say that he was referring to something as simple as weather patterns.
In either scenario, Rubio comes out the winner. His denial of the role of human beings will be forgotten quickly, and all that will remain on the record is his statement that the climate is always changing.
