Emily's Post: Ron Johnson: Friend of Big Oil, foe of the glaciers - Isthmus | The Daily Page

Here's what [Republican candidate for Senate, Ron Johnson] said, when asked whether he agreed or disagreed that "man-caused global warming is a proven fact":

I totally disagree...I'm always surprised that people think this is the sweet spot in global history in terms of this is where we should be climate-wise. We live in Wisconsin – I'm glad there's global warming or we'd be standing on top of a 200 ft. thick glacier. So I think it's absolutely not proven, and for us to be contemplating fixing something that is not proven is absurd.
