Emails show collaboration among EPA and climate change deniers

EPA Administrator Scott 'The Rot' Pruitt

AP
5/25/18

Newly released emails show senior Environmental Protection Agency officials collaborating with a conservative group that dismisses climate change to rally like-minded people for public hearings on science and global warming, counter negative news coverage and tout Administrator Scott Pruitt's stewardship of the agency. The emails were obtained by the Environmental Defense Fund and the Southern Environmental Law Center through the Freedom of Information Act. The emails show John Kokus, EPA's deputy associate administrator for public affairs, repeatedly reached out to the conservative Heartland Institute.

No surprise at all. Pruitt & Co. will do literally anything to undermine our environment.

Did anyone really need an email to know that was going on? LOL

In his book Storms of my Grandchildren, noted climate scientist James Hansen issued the following warning: "If we burn all reserves of oil, gas, and coal, there is a substantial chance we will initiate the runaway greenhouse. If we also burn the tar sands and tar shale, I believe the Venus syndrome is a dead certainty."

For the first 2.5 Billion years, Earth's atmosphere was nothing but CO2, Methane and Ammonia, with no Oxygen, and yet there was no runaway greenhouse gas effect.

If you can't figure out you're being scammed, then that's just too bad.

During the previous Inter-Glacial Period, average global temperatures were 10.4° F higher than present, and the Greenland Icesheet nearly melted in its entirety.

In fact, seven of the last eight Inter-Glacial Periods have been warmer than today, so the reality is you really have no idea what the average global temperature ought to be; but you do have a bunch of control-freaks who think they know better telling you differently.
