“Global warming, climate change, all these things are just a dream come true for politicians. The opportunities for taxation, for policies, for control, for crony capitalism are just immense, you can see their eyes bulge,” he says.

Finally...reality.

He said this in the jump... very much like what you're saying Lonesome.

Lindzen is emeritus (retired). He was one of the founders of the science of climatology, and is, ever was, and has remained skeptical of catastrophic anthropogenic global warming. He has been completely consistent and intellectualy honest for as long as anyone knows. He thinks human contributions to global warming are tiny, and largely beneficial.

He is the “polar” opposite of Micheal Mann. Give him props.

Thank you for posting that comment. Lindzen is a hero. In the face of tremendous peer pressure, he has maintained his integrity.

"to fight global warming in Massachusetts."

Two good reasons to leave Mass: liberals and they want it to be even freaking colder than it already is.
