I have no doubt that … a trend of global warming exists. I am not sure that it is fair to say that it is a problem we must wrestle with. To assume that it is a problem is to assume that the state of Earth's climate today is the optimal climate, the best climate that we could have or ever have had and that we need to take steps to make sure that it doesn't change. First of all, I don't think it's within the power of human beings to assure that the climate does not change, as millions of years of history have shown. And second of all, I guess I would ask which human beings — where and when — are to be accorded the privilege of deciding that this particular climate that we have right here today, right now is the best climate for all other human beings. I think that's a rather arrogant position for people to take.
There is a word for this...FLUMMERY. What twaddle. What a great series of question no one asks or are interested in. The best climate? What is the affect of the poles melting away again? Who is that great for? The Atlanteans? Great job of obscuring the issues. It is little wonder that the Bush administration put him in charge at NASA. I bet he loved putting those gag orders in place on his scientists.
Houston, you have a problem.
