Got Shade - (More Republican solutions to global climate change)

Rep Barton (R-TX) now believes in global climate change. His solution:

http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2009_03/017456.php

"I believe that Earth's climate is changing, but I think it's changing for natural variation reasons. And I think man-kind has been adopting, or adapting, to climate as long as man has walked the Earth. When it rains we find shelter. When it's hot, we get shade. When it's cold, we find a warm place to stay. Adaptation is the practical, affordable, utterly natural reflex response to nature when the planet is heating or cooling, as it always is."

2. Well, this might be a minor improvement in his position

At least he is better than Inhofe, who is convinced that there has been no global warming.

Maybe he should adapt by not using ac when home in Texas in August.
