Yeah, I don't know that but I think that it is," Romney said, as reported by Reuters. "I don't know if it's mostly caused by humans.""What I'm not willing to do is spend trillions of dollars on something I don't know the answer to," he added.Just two and a half months ago in New Hampshire, Romney expressed concern about climate change and greenhouse gas emissions.
