U.S. Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan said last week that while he believes climate change is real, it is something for God — not humans — to fix, according to a report in Time.

The congressman told his constituents during a town hall meeting in Coldwater that he believes God will "take care of" climate change if it proves to be a "real problem."

"I believe there's climate change. I believe there's been climate change since the beginning of time," Walberg said, as reported by Time. "Do I think man has some impact? Yeah, of course. Can man change the entire universe? No."

He continued: "Why do I believe that? Well, as a Christian, I believe that there is a creator in God who is much bigger than us. And I'm confident that, if there's a real problem, he can take care of it."
