Mr. Clark’s column that pointed out holes in the global warming theory may have a hole or two of its own.

He was very detailed about what evidence is in a court of law and pointed out the hyperbole of Al Gore’s statement. However, his inference that previous accords never became accords because no developed nation would commit economic suicide seems to me to be a bit of hyperbole.

Many developed nations are well into replacing coal with newer “clean” technologies and even in this country, The growth of employment in clean energy appears to eclipse the most optimistic predictions of the number of jobs that opening closed coal mines in this country could generate.



Even if man has no role in climate change, I don’t see why we would spoil our planet for the sake of short-term profits at the expense of long term consequences.
