Last month, KUSI news aired a special report with John Coleman, the founder of the Weather Channel.

During the hour long segment, John Coleman detailed the science and the controversy surrounding global warming. He discusses how carbon dioxide does not cause significant warming of the earth, how Al Gore and the U.N. became involved in global warming, and the issues surrounding Climategate.
