You never know with politicians what they are really saying. And I don't say that in a negative way-they have an appalling job.

If you start any large theory, such as quantum mechanics, plate tectonics, evolution, it takes about 40 years for mainstream science to come around. Gaia has been going for only 30 years or so.

It just so happens that the green religion is now taking over from the Christian religion. I don't think people have noticed that, but it's got all the sort of terms that religions use. The greens use guilt. That just shows how religious greens are. You can't win people round by saying they are guilty for putting (carbon dioxide) in the air.

I wouldn't be against them (large wind turbines) if they actually worked.

Only nuclear power can now halt global warming.

I'm a scientist, not a theologian. I don't know if there is a God or not. Religion requires certainty.

Evolution is a tightly coupled dance, with life and the material environment as partners. From the dance emerges the entity Gaia.
