Sorry, but I have to ask, what are you talking about ?


He seems to think that if we stop polluting the earth, the trees will not have enough CO2... Never heard THAT one before. He also mentioned the sun going 'quiet', so he's probably one of those that thinks global warming is only because the sun is hotter right now, not because of CO2.


Koch network propaganda. They also believe we should move underground and evolve into subterranean cave dwelling Morlocks to escape the heat—instead of using less oil. And yes, they actually proposed that idea in lieu of transitioning to renewables. It was one of the highlights of their science museum exhibitions about climate change. Nothing is too crazy for these people. My favorite, however, is when they sold specialized Koch lesson plans to schools. The Koch curriculum was designed to teach students to sacrifice their health and well-being on behalf of the free market, since as major oil producers, environmental regulation hurt their bottom line. From what I understand, some US states are still using those lesson plans or similar ones like them.
