Sen. Inhofe Challenges Global Warming ‘Alarmists’
October 26, 2007, 10:12pm
Former Vice President Al Gore has drawn hordes of attention to concerns about global warming this year, what with his Academy Award for the documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” and his recent share of the Nobel Peace Prize for his focus on climate change. But Gore’s views on the subject have not gone unchallenged.
Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., has been one of Gore’s chief critics over the past year, and today he delivered a two-hour speech on the Senate floor to challenge some of the research underlying conclusions about global warming as a threat to Earth. His staff on the Environment and Public Works Committee, where Inhofe is the top Republican, captured parts of the speech in shorter video clips and posted them to YouTube.
The videos are the latest in a series that capture Inhofe’s kickback against Gore and other advocates of government intervention to counteract global warming. You can see the others at his YouTube page.
