Tides have come to testify

One of the most fascinating events I’ve ever experienced was a climate conference several years ago at the University of Texas.

There I observed the constant struggle between science and the special interests that have but one task to achieve: seed doubt about the science.

I saw Texas-based climate scholars say what the vast majority assert about greenhouse gases and global warming. They were followed in rebuttal by figures who, by appearance, had boarding passes in their pockets and airline peanuts on their breaths.
