Leading French environmental scientist switches sides in AGW debate

Allegre's second thoughts:
"[Dr. Claude Allegre's] article cited evidence that Antarctica is gaining ice and that Kilimanjaro's retreating snow caps, among other global-warming concerns, come from natural causes. 'The cause of this climate change is unknown,' he states matter of factly. There is no basis for saying, as most do, that the 'science is settled.'"

Amazing to behold, but we have found an honest socialist in, of all places, France. Dr. Allegre's defection is a double blow to Al Gore and friends in that he is among the worlds experts on atmospheric processes and a former cabinet minister under the Socialist Party administration of Lionel Jospin.
