In an interview Monday evening with Fox News’ Megyn Kelly of The Kelly File, meteorologist and Weather Channel co-founder John Coleman discusses the myths of the alleged global warming climate crisis.

“Thank you for having me on your program,” said Coleman. “You know, a climate skeptic can rarely get on TV ever since Al Gore made it a plank of the Democratic Party…this is a tough go for people who don’t believe in climate change.”

Coleman continues by blaming the media for spreading inaccuracies about climate change. “Well, it’s very difficult for anybody to be against it because the media has told the nation over and over again, day after day for 20 years, that the oceans are rising, the polar bears are dying, the ice is melting, that storms are going to sweep the earth and that we’re all going to die of a heat wave,” said Coleman. He later assured that “not only is the ice not melting, more polar bears are alive and happy today than we’ve had in 100 years.”

The interview comes after Coleman shocked many scientists and global warming supporters with an open letter attacking the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change earlier this month.

“There is no significant man-made global warming at this time, there has been none in the past and there is no reason to fear any in the future,” Coleman writes. “Efforts to prove the theory that carbon dioxide is a significant greenhouse gas and pollutant causing significant warming or weather effects have failed. There has been no warming over 18 years.”
