Key Statements

"So in a study I did, a Natural Choice, I actually proposed that we do a garment tax and two oil companies decided not to sign the study. Guess who else? The Sierra Club natural resource defense. It was good balance for us to get it through the Secretary of Energy, by the way. But it was embarrassing. We had brought these people in for almost two years to talk about having environmental centers of excellence in every oil field in America and also to tax CO2. Now, regardless of your belief in anthropogenic causes of poor global climate change and I have as a scientist, I am far unlike our president, who's not a scientist, who is absolutely certain."
