Fact
"On average, global warming is not going to harm the developing world."
Global warming
"I really try to say things as they basically are and it so happens that it is a good message that things are getting better, but there are still problems."
Problems
"Even if I was a bad right wing guy, to the extent of whether my arguments are right or wrong, they're right or wrong independently if I'm right or left."
Argument
"Of course, the world is full of problems. But on the other hand it's important to get the sense... are we generally moving in the right direction or the wrong direction?"
Direction
"It seems incontrovertible to me that there is a global warming effect and that it is going to be serious, probably not in the amount of, say, six degrees warming, but it's likely that we'll get two to three degrees warming and that will be serious enough."
Effect
"The obvious issue is providing clean drinking water and sanitation to every single human being on earth at the cost of little more than one year of the Kyoto treaty."
Being
"Just because there is a problem doesn't mean that we have to solve it, if the cure is going to be more expensive than the original ailment."
Cure
"The second thing is, if you want to do something about global warming, you have to think much more long-term. There is something wrong with saying we should start using renewables now, while they are still incredibly expensive."
Global warming
"So it's mainly a question of helping the Third World overcome the effects of global warming."
