Dr James Hansen is a professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Columbia University. Some of his quotes:

  • Adding CO2 to the air is like throwing another blanket on the bed.
  • Global warming isn't a prediction. It's happening.
  • It's as certain that as long as fossil fuels are the cheapest energy, we will just keep burning them.
  • The democratic process is supposed to be one person one vote, but it turns out that money is talking louder than the votes.
  • What has become clear from the science is that we cannot burn all of the fossil fuels without creating a very different planet.
  • Coal is responsible for as much atmospheric carbon dioxide as other fossil fuels combined and it still has far greater reserves. We must stop using it.

How is Global Warming a Scam?

The science of global warming could be a scam if someone had anything to gain by it. Yet scientists resisted the idea that they should be concerned about the possibility for almost a century after the possibility of anthropogenic global warming was first identified. No scientist has anything to gain by creating a hoax. In fact, any evidence that a research scientist has engaged in a scam would be career-destroying.
