Subject: [FairfieldLife] The sane voice of Vaclav Klaus on global-warming
Czech president calls for rational debate on global warming,
rejects "current hysteria"
The Associated Press

PRAGUE, Czech Republic: Czech President Vaclav Klaus on Wednesday
called for a rational debate on global warming, rejecting what he
called "hysteria" driven by enviromentalists.
"Let's bring the debate to whether the 0.6 (degree Celsius warming
over the last century) is much or little, how much Man has
contributed to the warming and ... if there is anything at all Man
can do about it," Klaus said when presenting his book "Blue, Not a
Green Planet."
He charged that groups other than scientists have now seized on the
topic and ambitious environmentalists are fueling a global warming
hysteria that has no solid ground in fact and allows manipulation of
people.
"It is about a key topic of our time, and that is the topic of human
freedom and its curtailment, " Klaus said.
"The approach of environmentalists toward nature is similar to the
Marxist approach to economic rules, because they also try to replace
free spontaneity of the evolution of the world (and of mankind)
with ... global planning of the world's development, " Klaus writes in
his book.
"That approach ... is a utopia leading to completely other than
wanted results," he says.
Klaus, an economist by profession, has repeatedly warned that policy
makers are pushed by the widespread fear of global warming to adopt
enormously costly programs that eventually may have no positive
effect.
Klaus served as Czechoslovak finance minister after the 1989 fall of
communism and as Czech prime minister after Czechoslovakia split into
the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1993. As president, he now has
mainly ceremonial powers.
