IN PRAISE OF CARBON - THE PRIMAL ELEMENT

December 1, 2008, 12:11 pm News

"There is no scientific theory linking carbon dioxide to the 'runaway' global warming that is the basis of the calamitous predictions.

LET US BANISH RELIGION FROM SCIENCE

"Let us not confuse environmental religion with observational science. Reliable science explains what we observe.

"I’ve seen evidence, which I believe, that says there has not been a rise in global temperature since 1998, despite the increase in carbon dioxide being pumped into the atmosphere.
