Will Power

  • Posted by:
  • on April 3, 2006 at 2:33 pm

On Sunday, George Will wrote a little column in the Washington Post that has some people angry. He posits that the 85% of Americans fearful of global warming feel that way because the media has told them to feel that way. Clearly, the media’s control of people is pretty limited, or else they’d be making people do more lucrative things that worry about climate change. We’ll let American Prospect tell you what they think is wrong with the science side of Will’s argument. Needless to say, there seems to be very little on the science side of Will’s argument.
