In his new book, The Deliberate Corruption of Climate Science, Canadian climatologist Tim Ball says his profession has been hijacked by a perverse political agenda whose chief backers have as their goal the de-industrialization of America.

And the Club of Rome agreed that, "The real enemy then is humanity itself." No wonder times are hard!
