Vegetation is really controlling what happens...whereas the emphasis in the climate models has always been on the atmosphere.

Science and religion are two windows that people look through, trying to understand the big universe outside, trying to understand why we are here. The two windows give different views, but they look out at the same universe. Both views are one-sided, neither is complete. Both leave out essential features of the real world. And both are worthy of respect.

Humanity looks to me like a magnificent beginning but not the final word.

Technology without morality is barbarous; morality without technology is impotent.

There is no doubt that parts of the world are getting warmer, but the warming is not global.

Committees do harm merely by existing.

We have no reason to think that climate change is harmful if you look at the world as a whole. Most places, in fact, are better off being warmer than being colder. And historically, the really bad times for the environment and for people have been the cold periods rather than the warm periods.
