Frankly I don't think this guy, MIT professor or not, knows shit for sure. I'd rather err on the side of caution when it comes to the environment. What is interesting is that BP, (British Petroleum), in 1996 resigned from the Gloabal Climate Coalition, which has ridiculed the science and has sought to undermine the Kyoto treaty. BP's CEO said, "The time to consider the policy dimensions of climate change is not when the link between greenhouse gases and climate change is conclusively proven, but when the possibility cannot be discounted and is taken seriously by the society of which we are part. We in BP have reached that point." BP took Kyoto to heart and since instituting Kyoto reductions in its operations, BP has seen cost savings of over $1.4 billion dollars. So here's a company that decided to be responsible and found out along the way that doing the right thing actually made them money rather than costing them money.
