Dr. Happer: Carbon Taxes Are a Scam, CO2 Is Essential for Life and Prosperity

Dr. William Happer, Professor Emeritus of Physics at Princeton University:

"CO2 is actually good for the world, so people ought to be encouraged to make more of it."

According to Dr. Happer, carbon taxes are being pushed by "opportunists who are making a good living out of frightening everybody, and sucking money out of the common man, to push idiotic energy solutions on them that make everyone poorer and provide less reliable energy, less affordable energy".

"Let's hope that there are enough people of common sense in the world... Let's hope that they've got the good sense to throw out the rascals before they do too much damage."
