Oh yes. And of course none of them have any stake in the matter. If there is not global warming, we don't need more money to study it, but if we say there is, voila! Another problem, and it threatens us all, give us more of your money so we can study the problem and do nothing about it.
Fact: The Earth has heated and cooled drastically on its own without any influence of humans. That is a fact. Guess what? It will continue to do so.
Anyone else also notice that the phrase "climate change" is slowly replacing "global warming". It is subtle, but watch for yourselves. The propaganda campaign is underway. I believe there is a recent report that over the last 10 years, worldwide temperatures have not changed measureably, hence the change.
People still have not answered, raise your hand if you want $5 a gallon gas. It will happen sooner than people think, especially with people refusing to investigate things on their own. Don't worry though, we can still blame the oil companies.
