Question

Which celebrities/politicians have publicly announced that they are anti-Global Warming? Or don't believe it?

Answer 1

Could you please post this question in "Gossip" or "Culture" or "irrelevancies" or "religion" or something like that?

This forum is generally about science, the environment and global warming, not about US celebrity obsessions or pop culture.

Does it really matter whether any celebrities have stated an opinion one way or another?

If Brad Pitt for example said that he was against global warming, what relevance would that have on the facts?

To answer: I don't know nor care

Answer 2

me  But I'm not a politicians but there are alot of politicians that don't believe in Global warming . The ones that don't believe in it just use the word "environment" in place of the politicaly correct term "global warming"  

Answer 3

AL GORE

Answer 4

Celebrities?   Don't know, don't care.   Why do you?    Does Brad Pitt's opinion sway you either way?      

Answer 5

That would be like saying they don't believe in god.  

People in the public eye need to be careful about what opinions they express.

John Travolta is on record as saying that addressing global warming is important, but he doesn't see the need to stop using his 737 as personal transport.  Perhaps he thinks the link between CO2 and global warming has been somewhat exagerated.

Answer 6

i can't think of any celebrities.

politicians are another matter.

if they're hard core republicans,  or are from coal or oil producing states, and want to get re-elected, they don't have much choice.

Answer 7

The previous Australian PM John Howard was a climate change sceptic - and proud of it too - until polling shortly before last November's Federal election persuaded him that there were votes in them thar emissions. He learned to say "climate change" and to talk about "brokering solutions to climate change which do not impede economic growth".

I am pleased to report he was resoundingly defeated. He will go down in history as the first Australian PM in 90 years to lose his own seat in a swing away from him which was larger than the national swing. I must say he was a bad PM in many ways not just on climate change and it was a well deserved and long overdue defeat.

He was a great friend of George W's for quite some time. Ask George what he thinks of climate change.

Not a lot is my guess.

Answer 8

Neither group is likely to do that. Celebrities and Politicians stay that way when people like them. If they say what they really believe, someone or group of someones may not like them then they are no longer popular.

Then they are no longer famous celebrities or politicians.

Answer 9

As far as I know, Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK) is the only one.

Answer 10

Off the top of my head two politicians come to mind.

Czech President Vaclav Klaus. http://mpinkeyes.wordpress.com/2008/05/2...

Former British Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson.
