Global Warming Hysteria: Obama and Bush–Kyoto Twins Separated at Birth » Secondhand Smoke | A First Things Blog
That was the very reasoning behind Bush pulling the USA out of Kyoto.

So, where’s the outrage? If Bush was CAUSING THE END OF THE WORLD! by rejecting Kyoto, why isn’t Obama? Isn’t it amazing how the hatred disappears over the same policy when the political party of the presidency changes from R to D?
Climate Lessons: Heroic teachers can get classroom cheers by telling the truth about climate
I’ve had a similar experience Jenn. I’m a maths teacher in a London secondary school (11-18 years). During one of my lessons a child mentioned AGW, so I decide to explain to the class why I thought the theory was complete rubbish and showed them some graphs (eg graphs that show MWP, logarithmic effect of CO2, etc) to explain why. I’m not exaggerating when I say the kids actually cheered!
Anyway, the next day the Head of Science came to see me in the staff room and told me to stop telling the kids about my ‘conspiracy theories’.
