The 97% Number That Won’t Die
The problem is that the issue is not whether or not “humans are causing global warming.” I can concede that there is a good possibility of that, and it still has zero implications for policy, absent quantification with sufficient confidence levels, which remain lacking.

Gregg Easterbrook

It’s almost as though they want to blight the lives of the young and working poor.

Ken Starr
Of course, the media has developed a “strange new respect” for him.
