Jemaine Clement’s response to this climate change denier was out of this world
Takedown of the week goes to Flight of the Conchords’ Jemaine Clement for his response to this climate change denier who took an unusual route to reassuring everyone we have nothing to worry about.
First up, here’s Steve Milloy, who founded something called Burn More Coal and is very proud of his label as ‘the most influential climate science contrarian’.
It prompted no shortage of excellent takedowns.
Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, and this tweet is from Uranus.

In a long, long history of stupid statements about #climate from Milloy, this one is almost certainly the stupidest.

You’re my favorite parody account. Hilarious.

But Jemaine Clement’s was our favourite.
Steve, go to Venus and take a big deep breath.
