Baker says US needs to get serious about global warming
I’m not sure this is the actual 7th Sign, but I’m pretty sure it’s mentioned somewhere in Revelation:
Mar 3, 2005 — HOUSTON (Reuters) – Former Secretary of State James Baker, a close ally of the Bush family, broke ranks with the Bush administration on Thursday and called for the United States to get serious about global warming.
Baker, in a speech to an audience that included a number of oil company executives, said “orderly” change to alternative energy was needed.
“It may surprise you a little bit, but maybe it’s because I’m a hunter and a fisherman, but I think we need to a pay a little more attention to what we need to do to protect our environment,” he told the Houston Forum Club.
“When you have energy companies like Shell and British Petroleum, both of which are perhaps represented in this room, saying there is a problem with excess carbon dioxide emission, I think we ought to listen,” Baker said.

I noted the implication that Baker only got interested when he heard it from the *energy companies*.. screw the scientists..
