[Dr.Zoidberg]

Maybe Thomas Sowell might be a great man, but he is an economist and because of that it´s no surprise that he is on side of the global warming critics. But I can´t hear it anymore that doing something for the protection of the environment will ruin the economy. Look at europe and you will see many countries which do a lot for the environment and have additionally very strict environmental regulations without spoiling the economy.

The experts he names in his article are not even known as neutral as they are connectet with heavy idustrie companies (mostly oil industry), which need them to deny the facts and statistics of the mainstream opinions in science, to protect theire business.

Here a link about Richard S. Lindzen and Fred Singer and their connections with the industry: http://www.ecosyn.us/adti/Corrupt_Ri...S_Lindzen.html

Here something interesting about Dennis Avery and Fred Singer. Both work for the Hudson institute which is financed by many heavy industry companies (among others Exxon Mobile):
