Re: Burt Rutan - Is Climate Change caused by Mankind?

Try going through Scaled Composites, his company. I think they're located in Mojave, CA. They sponsor a team, too, FRC 1641 of Mojave, CA, so that team should probably do some of the reaching.

My reading is this: If the data is correct, then we can't do a whole lot about the carbon emissions, which are the main focus, even if we adopt economy-killers (and government-expanders). So why adopt those?

I also like that he actually states his bias. Everyone has one, but nobody has the guts to 1) admit that they have one and 2) tell you what it is. I may not agree with some of the data with respect to time (PM me for why, if you're interested), but taking the data at face value, if it's accurate, is a slap in the face for those that say global warming is caused by humans. (I'd also like to see some of his sources.)
