The Climate Change Climate Change

Steve Fielding recently asked the Obama administration to reassure him on the science of man-made global warming. When the administration proved unhelpful, Mr. Fielding decided to vote against climate-change legislation.

If you haven't heard of this politician, it's because he's a member of the Australian Senate. As the U.S. House of Representatives prepares to pass a climate-change bill, the Australian Parliament is preparing to kill its own country's carbon-emissions scheme. Why? A growing number of Australian politicians, scientists and citizens once again doubt the science of human-caused global warming.

The Cap & Trade - otherwise known as Cap & Tax - legislation is based on the idea that the earth is warming and it's our fault. Al Gore has led the charge with lemming-like legislators, sensing political opportunites, following in his wake. Pelosi is not sure she can continue the charade because a rising tide of scepticism is brewing.
