"Climate is changing, you can't tell me that taxing people, putting electricity costs is going to change the climate. The climate is changing pure to nature itself and our relation to the sun."
The senator suggested people who were concerned about climate change should "take all the aeroplanes out of the sky" and stop driving cars.
