Ohio Panel: Climate [swindle] action a must
Al Stroucken, O-I's chief executive officer, followed Mr. Brown's opening remarks by saying it is "unacceptable" for businesses to reject concerns about climate change.

That report's lead spokesman, Joel Scheraga, head of the U.S. EPA's global change research program, told The Blade that climate change "poses real risks to human health," especially in the Great Lakes region.
"EPA Recognizes Peril of Greenhouse Gases" (Houston Chronicle headline indicative of alarmist bias) — MasterResource
Headlines sell papers, but this scream from atop Page 1 of today’s Houston Chronicle deserves critical comment. A fair and accurate (but less sexy) headline would have been: “EPA Declares Peril of Greenhouse Gases.” Just changing one word–from “recognizes” to “declares”–makes all the difference.

The Chronicle, particularly the editorial page, has been a bastion of climate alarmism rather than informed skepticism, or what a lot of us simply call climate realism. (Eric Berger, the “sci-guy” at the Chronicle, is more of a straight shooter on day-to-day global-warming reporting.)
