Tim Pawlenty Says Climate Change Not Man-Made | TPMDC
Tim Pawlenty went full climate denier on Tuesday, embracing fringe claims that the vast international consensus on the issue is "bad science."

"So there is climate change, but the reality is the science of it indicates that most of it, if not all of it, is caused by natural causes," Pawlenty told FOX News. "And as to the potential human contribution to that, there's a great scientific dispute about that very issue."

Pawlenty added that "until recently, people were worried as much about global cooling," a reference to an exhaustively debunked myth that's floated around conservative circles for years.
