The Beginning of the End.

The Beginning of the End.
Hyperbole?  Maybe. You decide.

Trump picks top Climate "skeptic" to lead EPA

Quote:The Trump team has also lined up leaders for its Energy Department and Interior Department teams. Republican energy lobbyist Mike McKenna is heading the DOE team; former Interior Department solicitor David Bernhardt is leading the effort for that agency, according to sources close to the campaign.
Ebell is a well-known and polarizing figure in the energy and environment realm. His participation in the EPA transition signals that the Trump team is looking to drastically reshape the climate policies the agency has pursued under the Obama administration. Ebell’s role is likely to infuriate environmentalists and Democrats but buoy critics of Obama’s climate rules.
Ebell, who was dubbed an “elegant nerd” and a “policy wonk” by Vanity Fair, is known for his prolific writings that question what he calls climate change “alarmism.” He appears frequently in the media and before Congress. He’s also chairman of the Cooler Heads Coalition, a group of nonprofits that “question global warming alarmism and oppose energy-rationing policies.”
This was my top reason for voting Clinton.  yeah, I know Fracking, big oil.  I can't have everything.  
But this is going to take us in the opposite direction we need to go, at the most crucial time.  We've tipped, and now we have decided to sprint there, I guess.  
If you're going to hell in a handcart, full speed ahead!

RE: The Beginning of the End.
One of my major concerns coming with this presidency. And one that's probably unopposed by a republican congress. Trump already said he would roll back on climate change policies. When it's land under for LA or New York he won't be in office anymore, so it's none of his concerns. It's also of no concern to establishment republicans. They probably wet their pants over the prospect of taking off yet another corporate shackle.

It's pretty damn amazing how these people believe the bible. Stories dating back thousands of years and written by primitives who thought the earth was flat.

Then we have years of scientific data showing increasing temperatures. Test showing CO2 traps heat, and measurements showing how much is going into the atmosphere. But that's the fantasy and its a liberal lie. What kind of paint do people sniff to come to that conclusion.

How can anyone with a child not take this seriously?
