I happened to be in the car today when Rush Limbaugh was quoting MIT meteorologist Richard Lindzen as saying that environmentalism has become a religion, complete with superstitious beliefs and requirements for strange rites, like changing lightbulbs and planting a tree for every airplane flight. I’ve tried locating the source for that, and haven’t been able to. Please leave a comment if you know where it is.
Meanwhile, I did find a lot about him which is well worth reading if you can handle anti-alarmist science. He wrote this op-ed in 2006. He’s mentioned in this smackdown of the whole anthropogenic global warming scene, and written about in the Boston Globe. I got close to what I was seeking with this article. If you happen across whatever Rush’s source was, please chime in.
