[THE CHALLENGE:] Translating global warming science and policy into plain language that conveys the immediacy of the problem is tough, ... But it's the only way to craft legislation that will bring results in our lifetime.

Global warming is the greatest environmental threat we face. Fortunately, states are stepping up to the plate in taking on this great challenge. Connecticut policy-makers have shown great leadership in reducing global warming and cleaning up the air we breathe.

The lower court's blatant punting on global warming is a travesty. Despite the plain and simple language of the law the lower court refused to act. It's time for the nation's highest court to correct the lower court and take on global warming.

The Administration should never have walked away from the Kyoto Treaty. Global warming is real and it is here today. The facts aren't the issue. The policy is the issue. I think the Administration's policy on global warming is dead wrong.

[Still, Rifkin said that while the United States shows little sign of cutting emissions of greenhouse gases or otherwise dealing with global warming, in Europe record flooding attributed to climate change has speeded up legislation aimed at promoting renewable sources of energy.

It is reprehensive for a politician to promote an agenda by taking a tragedy Americans feel so deeply about, particularly when there is no merit to his ideas, ...

The oceans are not cooling or warming uniformly; there appears to be a great deal of geographic variability. When people usually speak of global warming, they think of the entire ocean warming up or cooling down.

That vote may be an issue if Cheney were going to be the person signing legislation or proposing legislation, but he's not, ... It's going to be George W. Bush, who's already told us he's going to have an open-door policy and he'll listen to us. He has said he wants sound science not politics.

We thought we live in a global warming world, but this is actually not right. We lived in a global warming plus a global dimming world and now we are taking out global dimming. So we end up with the global warming world, which will be much worse than we thought it will be, much hotter.
