10 QUOTES WITH «WARMING»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word warming.
1
Clive Anderson

2
Fred Barnes
Obama sounded like Al Gore on global warming. The more the case for man-made warming falls apart, the more hysterical Gore gets about an imminent catastrophe. The more public support his stimulus bill loses, the more Obama embraces fear-mongering.
3
Thomas P.M. Barnett
We need to remind ourselves that our ultimate goal is not to reduce greenhouse gases or global warming per se but to improve the quality of life and the environment. We all want to leave the planet in decent shape for our kids. Radically reducing greenhouse gas emissions is not necessarily the best way to achieve that.
4
Amy J. Berg
As the people of Shishmaref lose their natural hunting grounds to the warming sea, they are forced to buy U.S. canned goods from the only local store on the island; however, this is not their natural diet and cannot sustain them throughout the year.
5
Conrad Black
The greenhouse effect of carbon-dioxide emissions does produce gentle warming if it is not counteracted by unpredictable natural phenomena, but it cannot be measured directly against the volume of such emissions.
6
Jim Clyburn

7
Godfried Danneels

8
Freeman Dyson
Unfortunately the global warming hysteria, as I see it, is driven by politics more than by science.
9
Jerry Falwell
The whole global warming thing is created to destroy America's free enterprise system and our economic stability.
10
Renee Fleming
Well, any time I'm preparing for a performance or even a rehearsal, it's as if in a way, like any other athletes, these are muscles that support the vocal cords which are just I believe cartilage. It demands a kind of constant warming up and a constant feeling of where is the voice today.
