typical exxon mobile b.s. this kind of denial. Same scientists that defended tobacco are denying this and being paid by exxon just like they were paid by tobacco. Warming is real and these ppl are paid and this guy has no science, the science is exactly the opposite of this guys claims and increasingly show more and more as time goes by that global warming is happening and the effects are going to be very long term. We may not be able to adapt to this rapidly enough and there will be major economic consequences that greatly exceed the costs of doing nothing.
