Quote by Dennis Miller

Then people ask me if I'm worried about the effects of global warming on my kids. Well, obviously I love my kids and I want them to live to be a 100. So that's another 1.8 degrees. My kids' kids? Three point six. I'll just tell them we moved to Phoenix.

Summary

In this quote, the speaker sarcastically dismisses concerns about the detrimental impact of global warming on future generations. They humorously suggest that the incremental rise in temperature (measured in degrees Celsius) will have a little effect on their children's lifespan. Seeking to trivialize the issue, the speaker jokingly proposes telling their grandchildren that their relocation to a city notorious for its high temperatures, like Phoenix, is solely responsible for the increased heat, portraying it as a matter of personal choice rather than a global crisis.
