that's a quote from kim mountain, who is a health professor at columbia university, and this was shown in "usa today." the most recent decade was the nation's hottest on record. this isn't a guess. this is the truth. the most recent decade was the nation's hottest on record, and 2012 was the hottest single year. the average u.s. temperature has risen 1.5 degrees farenheit since reliable record-keeping began in 1895 -- 80% of that has occurred since 1980. the economic cost of all these changes are enormous. not only for those directly affected, but for the nation's taxpayers who are stuck with the bills for disaster relief, national flood insurance and drought-related crop losses. now, what are we supposed to do about this? clearly scientists tell us there's too much carbon pollution in the air and i'll show you where it's coming from. the electricity sector gives us 34% of the carbon. transportation sector, 27% of the carbon comes from them. the industrial sector, 20%. the residential and commercial buildings, 11%. the ag sector 7%. we know that president obama has done an amazing job

but in the trial at columbia university sponsored by the nih and they made sure we don't have depressed people in the trial we have to cancel the trial we couldn't find a single smoker who wasn't clinically depressed. now the fundamental insight you have to gain is what you do to help these folks and i would argue you have to take a couple different attacks. one is show them what is happening. this is what a smoker's lung looks like today if you can't hide from that. you know it's bad. you see that little of appearance that is emphysema. the deposits are pretty evident as well from the cigarettes. when you see that you have a visceral awareness and understanding of why is matters to you but the second insight you have to offer them is that there are certain times you can change people's minds. as a heart surgeon i don't have a lot of control what people do after the surgery. i've already done my work and they are on their way. i long ago pledged i would never operate on smokers, and i don't. and i don't say that because i dislike smokers. i say because i care about them. but i tell them

a study by the universities of british columbia and george mason broke down american university faculties this way. 51% are democrats. 35% are independent. just 14% republican. in fact, some the top donors to president obama last year were colleges. the university of california gave the president a whopping $1,200,000. unbelievable. harvard university almost $700,000. so you can see that american college students are mostly caught in a liberal environment whether they like it or not. enter ryan row rotela a student north of fort lauderdale. vine mormon enrolled in a communications class taught by the vice chairman of the democratic party if you can believe it dr. deandre poole has been a democratic activist, an activist for years. yet, is he running that class. and as part of the course, dr. poole apparently ordered his students to disrespect jesus. >> he said everybody write jesus on bold letters so what i did was wrote jesus just like this. afterwards he said everybody put it on the floor. he took it out. put it on the floor and he had us all stand up once we were standing up he said st
