Fox Host: Greenhouse Gases Are Actually Good For Us

Mediaite has the transcript:

Now what are greenhouse gases? Are greenhouse gases poisonous? It sounds so ominous. Greenhouse gases are in the atmosphere.

You ever drive by one of these sorta glass buildings, and they create a greenhouse gas environment, so they can grow plants during the winter or during a harsh season. Those are greenhouses, right? That’s greenhouse gas.

Carbon dioxide, that’s what they focus on. The vast majority of the greenhouse gases are condensation, water. Carbon dioxide, represents — well, let me give you an example — you have a stadium of 10,000 seats? Four seats, four seats. Almost no pollution when you really think about it, as a result of carbon dioxide.

And what else? Without carbon dioxide, we die. Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. The federal government doesn’t even have regulatory authority to regulate it. It’s not a pollutant.

What is it? It is oxygen for plants. In essence, plants use carbon dioxide to create oxygen for you and me. Remember, we used to like the Amazon, we used to like trees, we used to like all those things. Well, they suck up our carbon dioxide and push out oxygen.

Mediaite responded to the above with explanations of how wrong he is on the science and on the law.
