Greenpeace co-founder: No scientific proof humans are dominant cause of warming climate
Fox News ^ | February 26, 2014

Posted on 02/26/2014 10:32:36 AM PST by jazusamo

A co-founder of Greenpeace told lawmakers there is no evidence man is contributing to climate change, and said he left the group when it became more interested in politics than the environment.

Patrick Moore, a Canadian ecologist and business consultant who was a member of Greenpeace from 1971-86, told members of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee environmental groups like the one he helped establish use faulty computer models and scare tactics in promoting claims man-made gases are heating up the planet.

“There is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are the dominant cause of the minor warming of the Earth’s atmosphere over the past 100 years,” he said.

Even if the planet is warming up, Moore claimed it would not be calamitous for men, which he described as a “subtropical species.”

Frankly, I believe the climate hysterics will find some way to kill this man. It is their way and there is nothing more important than their humanist religion of control

Since scientist also agree that 98-99% occurs naturally.

Mankind has no affect (over other species).

Man, is the only species taxed and government wants there money.

It’s a real possibility, a lot of them are crazy and/or greedy enough to do it.

I wouldn’t begin to guess how many of these nuts are making their living off this fiasco.

It you look at what Greenpeace was in the beginning it was not a bad organization. After the fall of the Soviet Union, the hard core left went underground. They infiltrated organizations such as Greenpeace and as they have done since the time of President Roosevelt, redoubled their efforts to infiltrate (mission accomplished) and take over the Democrat Party.

I was a member of the Sierra Club starting in 1968 and left it in total disgust in about 1998 when it became clear that it had become nothing but an anti-American communist conspiracy.
