Mike Pence Quotes
Most climatologists agree that, at best, global warming is a theory about future climactic conditions and cannot be proven based upon the historic record.

It was Bruckner who first started serious discussion about human behavior affecting the climate of the earth. So the polarizing political issue really began in 1890.
This was his last House debate and whereas almost all scientists had agreed that climate change was a serious challenge to the nation, an ideologically driven majority of his Republican Party denied that that there was any climate change that was different from the usual vicissitudes of nature, he tried to persuade his anti-scientific, conservative colleagues to face reality.
This was a climate-change science denier who actually helps make the climate change argument in this quote. Since the Earth has had several ice ages, there must of been times when it did not go from hot to cold as Koch herein observes. During periods after the ice ages, climate went from cold to hot. But this point has nothing to do with the contemporary evidence of man made global warming.. Scientists with the benefit of mathematics have been able to calculate the normal and average temperature fluctuations and the actual fluctuations that have occurred since man began the industrial revolution. The clear difference shows that there has been an increase over and above the normal fluctuations that new expected.
Here is a case of where an absolutely true quotation is used inappropriately politically. In this case to imply that there is nothing we can do to stop global warming. Just as humans have created some of the climate change in the last centuries, humans can change behavior and stop that portion of the change that we are creating. In addition, there are scientific and technological techniques being developed to alter the climate beyond that which mankind has produced.
