(CNSNews.com) – In an interview with “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said he believes “climate change is real,” but he rejects the cap and trade solution proposed by former Vice President Al Gore.
“I believe climate change is real, but I reject the cap and trade solution of … of Al Gore. He’s made a religion. It’s a problem,” he said.
Gore’s proposed cap and trade system would penalize companies for exceeding carbon emissions limits. Last month, Gore said politicians who deny that climate change is an “accepted science” should pay a price.
Host Chris Wallace noted that in his home state of South Caroline, Graham is running fourth behind Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Jeb Bush and Sen. Ted Cruz (R- Texas). He asked if Graham was too far in the center of nondefense issues to win the Republican presidential nomination.
