Friday Interview: The Impact of Climategate on the Climate Debate
RALEIGH — The recent Gulf oil spill has prompted some climate alarmists to renew their push for federal cap-and-trade legislation to limit carbon emissions. Even before the spill, alarmists sought ways to renew interest in government restrictions on carbon dioxide. One of their chief obstacles was publicity surrounding the Climategate controversy. Earlier this year, Paul Chesser discussed Climategate for a John Locke Foundation audience. The special correspondent for The Heartland Institute and director of Climate Strategies Watch also discussed the topic with Mitch Kokai for Carolina Journal Radio.
