Stevie Wonder Calls Climate Deniers Either "Blind or Unintelligent"
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Increasing climate chaos has driven a number of celebrities to warn of
the dangers of global warming. At Tuesday night's "Hand in Hand"
hurricane relief telethon, music legend Beyoncé warned that devastation
from hurricanes Harvey and Irma-and massive flooding in South Asia-is
due to climate change. The telethon kicked off with a message from
Stevie Wonder, who called out climate deniers ahead of a rendition of
the classic song "Stand by Me."

Stevie Wonder: "As we should begin to love and value our planet, and
anyone who believes that there is no such thing as global warming must
be blind or unintelligent."
