“Do you still believe that global warming is not man made?” Gibson asked Palin.

“I believe that man’s activities certainly can be contributing to the issue of global warming, climate change. Here in Alaska, the only arctic state in our Union, of course, we see the effects of climate change more so than any other area with ice pack melting. Regardless though of the reason for climate change, whether it’s entirely, wholly caused by man’s activities or is part of the cyclical nature of our planet — the warming and the cooling trends — regardless of that, John McCain and I agree that we gotta do something about it and we have to make sure that we’re doing all we can to cut down on pollution.”

An entire contextual quote is usually more informative than a selective one. This is hardly a rousing endorsement of global warming and certainly not one of Gore’s carbon credit scheme or of cap and trade.

I would have preferred if she said conserve resources or save resources. "Carbon" is not pollution by any stretch of the imagination.
