Climate Change Skeptic Receives Warm Welcome in Charleston

By Scott Finn 

When people talk about climate change, a word you hear a lot is “consensus.” Everywhere you look, it seems like former skeptics of climate change, including big oil companies and President Bush, are joining the fight against global warming. 

This week California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and former vice president Al Gore received a warm reception at the United Nations Summit on climate change. President Bush is hosting his own summit on climate change later this week. 

But in coal-rich West Virginia, there is far less consensus on climate change. That was evident Tuesday night, when a controversial climate change skeptic received a warm welcome from an audience in Charleston. He says the earth might be warming, but it’s not our fault – and it may even be a good thing.
