I personally think that, if there were any aliens, they would be the ones to blame for it as in these cases:

However, some apparently see "aliens" as the solution to it!

UFO science key to halting climate change: former Canadian defense minister
Wed Feb 28, 2:45 PM ET

A former Canadian defense minister is demanding governments worldwide disclose and use secret alien technologies obtained in alleged UFO crashes to stem climate change, a local paper said Wednesday.

"I would like to see what (alien) technology there might be that could eliminate the burning of fossil fuels within a generation … that could be a way to save our planet," Paul Hellyer, 83, told the Ottawa Citizen.

Alien spacecrafts would have traveled vast distances to reach Earth, and so must be equipped with advanced propulsion systems or used exceptional fuels, he told the newspaper.

Such alien technologies could offer humanity alternatives to fossil fuels, he said, pointing to the enigmatic 1947 incident in Roswell, New Mexico -- which has become a shrine for UFO believers -- as an example of alien contact.

"We need to persuade governments to come clean on what they know. Some of us suspect they know quite a lot, and it might be enough to save our planet if applied quickly enough," he said.

Hellyer became defense minister in former prime minister Lester Pearson's cabinet in 1963, and oversaw the controversial integration and unification of Canada's army, air force and navy into the Canadian Forces.

He shocked Canadians in September 2005 by announcing he once saw a UFO.

"He shocked Canadians in September 2005 by announcing he once saw a UFO."

Maybe Hellyer was a "Scare Tactics" victim:

Maybe Hellyer is one of the people on this chopper:

At least some of those aliens have learned how to spell in our language:

ummm how did he get elected ?

Cacique Caribe04 Mar 2007 2:19 p.m. PST

Dunno.

Is the "Canadian defense minister" appointed, or are they elected?

In Canadian politics, one must get elected to serve in the House of Commons. Those that do are called "membres of Parliment". The party to garner a majority of votes becomes the government, and its leader becomes Prime Minister. the Prime Minister then appoints MPs (from his party) to his cabinet to serve as ministers.

Given that we was a minister in the 60s and only revealed his belief in UFOs in the 21st century, I doubt it was an issue. Heck, Stockwell Day revealed back in the late 90s that he believed that mankind and dinosaurs co-existed, and he's never lost his riding…

I had a feeling they were appointed by the Prime Minister. Thanks for clearing that up.

Yes. I think that if he had disclosed his beliefs while he was still serving, or soon thereafter, it would have caused quite a stir. Now, it is just a cheap attention-getter for reporters' headlines.

Well, it "they" are somehow causing a "terraforming" of sorts, I guess this is what we have to look forward to:
