(June 10, 2007)--A theology professor who speaks for the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation says global warming isn't all bad.

In a speech at the Family Research Council, Knox Theological Seminary Professor Calvin Beisner noted that carbon dioxide emissions blamed for global warming also enhance plant growth, which will help feed the world's poor.

Beisner said the plants and animals that died for mankind's sin in Noah's flood were compressed into the fossil fuels we now burn to fuel growth.

He compared that to Jesus dying, being buried and then resurrected to give people new life.

He said, "Added carbon dioxide from fossil fuels isn't pollution -- it's part of the solution to human poverty and to the thriving of the whole Earth."
