Phyllis Schlafly Quotes

I'm a guy that's worked out in the weather since I was 16. I can tell there's climate change. The cause? I'm not smart enough for that.

Of course I would disagree that there's a definitive science that has concluded that mankind has turned the earth's thermostat up and that we can turn the earth's thermostat down at will, we just haven't yet found the will. That's the argument on climate change.

I found the source of global warming is coming from the hot air coming out of Washington.

The idea that human beings have changed and are changing the basic climate system of the Earth through their industrial activities and burning of fossil fuels - the essence of the Greens' theory of global warming - has about as much basis in science as Marxism and Freudianism.

The evidence for human-made climate change is overwhelming.

Man is now in charge of the thermostat for the globe.

Once you start to look into the guts of climate change you find that just about every scientific institution in the world is conducting research on the issue.

Much of the debate over global warming is predicated on fear, rather than science.

As a scientist, my attention became totally focused on global warming some 15 years ago by the elegant and powerful measurements of carbon dioxide trapped in ice cores taken as much as 2 miles deep from the great East Antarctica ice sheet.

The question of whether or to what extent human activities are causing global warming is not a matter of ideology, let alone of belief. The issue is simply one of risk management.

By burning fossil fuels, we are already dumping 30 billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere every year, which has a profound effect on the climate. So, like it or not, we're already messing with a system we don't understand.

The greenhouse effect of carbon-dioxide emissions does produce gentle warming if it is not counteracted by unpredictable natural phenomena, but it cannot be measured directly against the volume of such emissions.

Climate change is a controversial subject, right? People will debate whether there is climate change... that's a whole political debate that I don't want to get into. I want to talk about the frequency of extreme weather situations, which is not political.

There is no significant man-made Global Warming underway and the science on which the computer projections of weather chaos are based is badly flawed.

Some of the scientists, I believe, haven’t they been changing their opinion a little bit on global warming? There’s a lot of differing opinions and before we react I think it’s best to have the full accounting, full understanding of what’s taking place.

Global warming might be the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people.

I think that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do and there’s tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact, so no, I would not agree that it’s a primary contributor to the global warming that we see.

There is still significant uncertainty around all of the factors that affect climate change.

2007, according to a Harris poll, 71 percent of Americans believed that climate change was real, that it was human caused.

By 2007, 85% of Americans cited climate change as an important issue, compared with just 33% in prior years. The phrase we invented, 'An Inconvenient Truth,' became a part of the lexicon.

The jury is still out on whether humans are causing climate change.

The hoax is that there are some people who are so arrogant to think that they are so powerful, they can change climate. Man can't change climate.

This notion that manmade climate change is happening is wrong.

For many years now, ExxonMobil has held the view that the risks of climate change are serious and do warrant action.

Global warming is controversial, of course, but the controversy is mainly over whether human activity is driving it.
