Public concern over supposed "climate change" continues to erode.
According to the latest Pew Research Poll, only 35 percent see global warming as a very serious problem, down from 44 percent last year. Fifty-seven percent believe there is solid evidence that man is driving climate change, down from 71 percent in 2008. As the public concern over climate change continues to erode, Lord Christopher Monckton -- the former advisor for science policy to Lady Margaret Thatcher -- says the alleged science behind manmade climate change is eroding as well. "First of all, it's now been demonstrated by measurement that CO2 has only one-sixth of the warming effect on the planet than the U.N. had previously thought," he states. "It's therefore harmless and generally beneficial." He adds that even if the U.N. were right, nothing economically could be done to fix the problem. "You would have to forgo the emission of one trillion tons of CO2," Monckton explains. "And that is 33 years of global output -- the entire emissions of the whole world for 33 years -- in order to forestall just one Fahrenheit degree of future temperature increase." The drop in public concern over alleged climate change comes at a point when the U.S. Congress is considering a massive energy bill that critics say would cut carbon emissions while dramatically raising energy prices.
