CBS “60 Minutes” Promotes Scientist Who Claimed Billions Would Die From Global Cooling
VIDEO: 8 Minutes of Stanford University's Paul Ehrlich Spreading Pseudoscience

Michael Shellenberger
20 hr ago
On Sunday night, CBS’s flagship news program, “60 Minutes,” highlighted warnings from a Stanford University biologist named Paul Ehrlich. In the broadcast, Ehrlich claimed, “humanity is not sustainable… for the entire planet, you'd need five more Earths.”

But that claim was debunked in the peer-reviewed scientific journal PLoS Biology, by leading scientists, including the Chief Scientist of The Nature Conservancy, nearly a decade ago.

And archival footage shows Ehrlich claiming that global cooling, not global warming, would result in global famine.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
