== On Climate Change ==
[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/21/mike-huckabee-climate-change_n_7632030.html Huckabee has used] the global cooling myth of the 1970s to rationalize that the science is not settled on climate change. He cites studies from a minority of scientists who said the earth was entering into a cooling period in the 1970s as evidence, despite the fact that most scientists believed the earth was entering a warming period.

"I know that when I was in college I was being taught that if we didn't act very quickly, that we were going to be entering a global freezing," [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/21/mike-huckabee-climate-change_n_7632030.html he told "Meet The Press" in 2015]. "Go back and look at the covers of Time and Newsweek from the early '70s. And we were told that if we didn't do something by 1980, we'd be popsicles. Now we're told that we're all burning up. Science is not as settled on that as it is on some things.” 

"A beheading is a far greater threat to an American than a sunburn," [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/21/mike-huckabee-climate-change_n_7632030.html 2013]

"It does prove that even some of the smartest people on Earth might not know just how much they still don’t know.” [http://www.nationaljournal.com/twenty-sixteen/the-guide-to-republicans-and-climate-change-20150208 2013]

However, these quotes are in sharp contrast with [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/21/mike-huckabee-climate-change_n_7632030.html Huckabee's comments in 2007,] during his presidential run, when he said "One thing that all of us have a responsibility to do is recognize that climate change is here, it's real," he said then. "That what we have to do is quit pointing fingers as to who's at fault and recognize that it's all our fault and it's all our responsibility to fix it."
