L’interview, dans Politico-Com<\/em>, le 10 novembre 2010<\/a>, du Repr\u00e9sentant (r\u00e9publicain) de l’Illinois John Shimkus a soulev\u00e9 le plus grand int\u00e9r\u00eat. Shimkus s’appuie sur la Bible, qu’il cite avec g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9, non pas pour nier le changement de climat et le global warming<\/em> mais pour affirmer que Dieu nous dit bien clairement que ce global warming<\/em> et la crise climatique en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral ne nous menacent en rien puisque nulle part (dans le Bible) n’est mentionn\u00e9 effectivement ce cas. Dieu est donc objectivement, et imp\u00e9rativement selon Son habitude, un n\u00e9gationniste, un climatedenier<\/em>, comme l’\u00e9tait encore r\u00e9cemment Claude Allegre<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tComme on le lit ci-dessous, Shimkus est candidat pour un poste clef \u00e0 la Chambre sur cette question de l’environnement<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00abRep. John Shimkus is standing by a controversial comment that global warming isn’t something to worry about because God said he wouldn’t destroy the Earth after Noah’s flood.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbThe Illinois Republican running for the powerful perch atop the House Energy and Commerce Committee told POLITICO on Wednesday that his understanding of the Bible reaffirms his belief that government shouldn’t be in the business of trying to address rising greenhouse gas emissions.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbI do believe in the Bible as the final word of God, Shimkus said. And I do believe that God said the Earth would not be destroyed by a flood.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bb Now, do I believe in climate change? In my trip to Greenland, the answer is yes. The climate is changing, he added. The question is more about the costs and benefits and trying to spend taxpayer dollars on something that you cannot stop versus the changes that have been occurring forever. That’s the real debate.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbShimkus drew snickers from the left in March 2009 when he quoted an exchange between God and Noah in Genesis during a subcommittee hearing on adaptation policies for dealing with climate change. His critics have rehashed the congressman’s remarks now that he’s entered the internal GOP campaign to take charge of the House panel with direct oversight of global warming and other environmental and energy policy issues.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbI’m glad that John Shimkus can sleep at night, faithful that that God’s word is infallible, unchanging, perfect,’ Salon blogger Andrew Leonard wrote on Wednesday. But for those of us who are less confident in humanity’s ability to keep from massively screwing up, the thought that the Bible will be determining government energy policy is massively ulcer inducing.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbSteve Tomaszewski, a Shimkus spokesman, said the congressman cited the Bible during the hearing because two ordained ministers testifying on the panel included their own Bible passages as part of their prepared remarks. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n \t\u00bbShimkus is one of four Republicans seeking the Energy and Commerce gavel Joe Barton, Fred Upton and Cliff Stearns are the others in what has become an increasingly nasty campaign.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tCet exemple en pointe est illustratif de la situation au Congr\u00e8s concernant la question de l’environnement et de la lutte contre la crise climatique. L’ampleur du courant n\u00e9gationniste est impressionnante. Une tr\u00e8s forte majorit\u00e9 d’\u00e9lus r\u00e9publicains, surtout \u00e0 la Chambre, rejette cat\u00e9goriquement tous les d\u00e9veloppements scientifiques concernant le global warming<\/em>, les pr\u00e9visions sur le changement climatiques et les perspectives de d\u00e9stabilisation parfois catastrophique qu’entra\u00eene cette crise climatique. La synth\u00e8se Progress Report<\/em> du 15 octobre 2010<\/a> d\u00e9taillait cette situation.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \tLa question de la lutte contre la crise climatique va \u00eatre l’objet d’un affrontement consid\u00e9rable, \u00e0 Washington m\u00eame, et entre les USA et les grands blocs r\u00e9gionaux du reste du monde.
