Global Warming - The Pope weighs in
I agree wholeheartedly that in the case of global warming, being sure NOT to overreact, seems wise and prudent...
In the U.K.'s Daily Mail, Simon Caldwell reports:
"Pope Benedict XVI has launched a surprise attack on climate-change prophets of doom, warning them that any solutions to global warming must be based on firm evidence and not on dubious ideology.
The leader of more than a billion Roman Catholics suggested that fears over man-made emissions melting the ice caps and causing a wave of unprecedented disasters were nothing more than scare-mongering.
The German-born Pontiff said that while some concerns may be valid it was vital that the international community based its policies on science rather than the dogma of the environmentalist movement."
