NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: 'The Five' Jesse Watters has come forward to once again slam climate change ''believers'' as Hurricane Idalia has begun the destruction on the coast.

The panel, in discussing the flooding of multiple states, attacked President Joe Biden for his "agenda" for global warming behind the hurricane as he asked for more funds against it.

Watters went on to suggest that climate change has become a "pyramid scheme" that involves the media houses who try to hoard ratings by scaring people.

He shared how he thinks that fake scientific research on environmental deterioration is ultimately a way of stealing taxpayers' money.

Jesse Watters says climate change is just a way to scare people

Watters, as an unwavering Republican, is on the side that labels the rise in global temperatures merely a hoax.

In a recent discussion on 'The Five', he said how any claims of climate change are only around to provoke fear amongst people.

In his "money guy" take, he labeled it as a pyramid scheme.

"So it is a pyramid scheme, climate change," he said, "If you think about it, you have the media, the politicians, and the academics at the top, and then at the bottom, you have all of us, the taxpayers."

"So academics realized early on that the more papers they put out saying that climate change was caused by humans and the world was going to blow up in two years if we don't do something about it, they were going to get more grant money from the politicians," he added.

Watters further attacked news networks, specifically those which are considered "liberal," for using climate change as a way to get more ratings.

"And so, the media takes these research papers and then they report them and then they get big ratings," he continued.

"Because everybody gets scared and everybody gets nervous, and then the politicians scare the heck out of you and said "Get rid of big oil," we need to go green, and then they throw all of our money around at all of their donors and all of their investors," he added.

Watters then referenced another interview he had with a climatologist named Judith Curry.

The scientist had suffered a loss of financial support following her refusal to believe in human involvement in climate change.

"We have this big climate change whistleblower on last night who said she's been ostracized because she reported that maybe the Earth is warming a little bit, but the human impact is really not much and the fact that it's warming, we got this," he said, "It's not Armageddon."

"And she has been smeared as a "denier" and all of her grants dried up," Watters added.

He said, "No one wants to talk to her in the scientific community anymore because that's when the money stops, if you start telling the truth.
