Gingrich, in a debate with Kerry the other day, fully and clearly stated that global warming exists and acknowledged that we need to do something about it.
"Former Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry debated former House Speaker (and potential Republican presidential candidate) Newt Gingrich today on the issue of global warming. Perhaps surprisingly, there weren’t nearly as many differences between the men as you might expect. Gingrich praised Kerry’s book on the subject, while Kerry described Gingrich as a generally swell guy.
More interestingly, both agreed that global warming was a problem, likely caused by human activities, in need of urgent action. Gingrich even disagreed with fellow Republican James Inhofe that the concept of global warming is a “hoax” and spoke of a need for a “green conservatism”.
They mainly disagreed about what to do next.."

Is Newt a global-warming alarmist?
