galileo was and of course the only one to look at the marin.may have been the first one to use a telescope but the book on this side of the table is from the 19th century, when telescopes' had improved a lot, and there were two scientists in england who published this book on the moon, based on their observations with the telescope. but although they could photograph the moon, they couldn't take a detailed observations with their telescope and photography, so they made a model based on their observations with the telescope and then made photographs of those observations. so this is the fault of copernicus named after the author we start with with very detailed observations that look like they are actual photographs of the moon but in fact photographs -- the book behind it is the same century as galileo. this is isaac newton's famous principia known by the third word of the title of the full title is mathematical principles of natural philosophy. and this is a book represents newtons idea of universal gratification or his three laws of motion pe

take the example of galileo. the science of his time was that the earth was the center of the universe. the roman catholic church believed it. galileo bucked the system and said no, the son was the center of the universe and spent the last years of his life to buck the consensus of science. we both know they were wrong. most on the other side believe that washington, d.c. is the center of the universe. science is never settled. we should continue to to question whatever it is that is out there. the sense of urgency that the other side ud to pass this bill the way they've done, it's quite muted. 25-year exemptions for certain energy companies to allow them to get their power plants under the wire to get support for this bill. the ag delays implementations. and so this sense of urg against illinois evaporates as well. this will be the cost of thousands of jobs. the example is the spanish experiment over the last 12 years. there is more greening of their economy shows that every single green job created that two pri

put you may recall that galileo was the only scientist to actually thought that the sun was the center of the universe. the only one who would stand up and say it. and he was actually taken before a court for believing that. when the whole world thought he was wrong. that is one scientist. 40 percent of the scientists who are at great risk of getting their funding because of the current world and the media splash around this, are actually saying that it is not man-made. so when we conclude that this is decided science, make real sure it is actually the answer. i do believe in global warming, it has occurred. i don't believe it is necessarily bad and i don't believe, first of all, it is greenhouse gas emissions because of man-made and yet we should still control those. i hope you did not go -- away thinking that i'm a pro- republican anti-democrat or anti-climate guy. when we go across the world, we do all sorts of good things. one of the great pleasures of my life is actually doing things in west africa where we actually take and provide water supplies, clean water to people, medical k
