News: March 2008 Archives

On March 3, New York hosted the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change where Lord Christopher Monckton, a policy advisor for former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher during the 1980s warned that the global warming alarmism could have agrave impact on humanity. He pointed out past events in history where individuals misinterpreted science, the eugenics movement in the 1930s which led to Hitler, the Lysenko movement in Russia under Stalin and even the great leap back under Chairman Mao which led again to tens of millions of deaths.

"Monckton used the banning of DDT, which was linked to the deaths of 40 million children dying from malaria, as an example. The World Health Organization lifted the ban on September 14, 2006, and that was, as Monckton said, 'The science standing in front of politics."
