A very rare glimpse indeed of a top official in a mainstream motor manufacturer showing his true colours. Bring it on! This gives us a great insight into why development of less polluting automotive technologies have progressed at such an appallingly slow pace.

While it probably isn't wise for Mr. Lutz to talk the way he did, he is mostly correct. Global Warming is occurring, but man has had VERY LITTLE effect on it. If not for Global Warming, wouldn't we still be in the ICE AGE? If not for Global Warming, glaicers wouldn't be melting providing pure water for the majority of the worlds population, but WarMOngers only want to talk about melting glaciers and ice caps, they never mention that we only monitor/measure less than 5% of ALL glaciers, and of those we do monitor and measure, just as many are GROWING. The WarMongers talk about the THOUSANDS of tons of CO2 generated by mankind (what they really mean is the USA), but they NEVER mention that CO2 is less than half of ONE PERCENT of the atmosphere, and that fraction hasn't changed (significantly) in the last 100 years. They also won't mention that plants, which thrive in CO2 rich environment and produce OXYGEN, would thrive most in an enviroment of 17% CO2. I would be glad to DISCUSS this with anyone, but usually the LEFTIES/WarMongers don't want discussion, if you don't line up for their KOOL-AID your dismissed as an idiot. Don't confuse them with the FACTS, they don't care about the FACTS, this is really a guise for their true agenda, redistribution of wealth from the USA and EUROPE to the poor.
