Energy Secretary Rick Perry downplayed the role of human activity in the recent rise in the Earth’s temperature, saying natural causes are likely the main driver of climate change.

"No. Most likely the primary control knob is the ocean waters and this environment that we live in," Perry said in the June 19 interview.
