On Climate Change[edit]
Paul said the earth goes through periods of time when the climate changes, but he's "not sure anybody exactly knows why...the conclusions you make from that are not conclusive." [2014]
"That alarmist stuff really detracts from the case that we shouldn't pollute." [2014]
Ignoring that it's not the individual storm, but the trend of increasing amounts of storms and increasing severity of the storms that is connected to climate change, Paul said "What I would say is someone is an ignoramus who would say, 'Oh yeah, three hurricanes this year, this proves that somehow the climate is warming,' Paul said. "The earth is 4.5 billion years old, and so, you are going to say we had four hurricanes and so that proves a theory? No...I'm not saying that theory is right or wrong. What I would say is there is something that all of us should be in favor of and that is we should minimize pollution." [2014]
