Bonespurs putting together another panel to put out fake news from fossil fuel folks. Yes we WILL need to continue to use fossil fuels for the foreseeable future, but REDUCING their use has reached critical mass. The lethal London smogs of the 50’s and desertification increase in the Sahara at the same time were regional warnings, and steps, laws, were taken to reverse the damage. On a global scale reversal may not be possible by this time, but dragging our feet on action will only push us over the edge sooner. Venus is our potential future, not Mars, and wishful thinking to continue profit margins high, is our worst addiction.
That’s too high a percentage of actual climate scientists for #45. Any percentage above zero is too high for him.
It’s not clear to me whether his entire policy is “do the opposite of Obama” or whether he is just a crook benefiting from this — probably some combination of both, since it can’t be any form of logic or reason.
Human-caused global warming is real. It’s happening now, it’s been happening for some time, and the curve is heading upwards faster. It may already be too late.
But #45 and the GOP cronies who are the only major party in the world who denies this patently obvious fact — the modern Flat Earthers, as it were — are still pretending there is doubt.
This panel is of denialist not skeptics. Science is skeptic in that it requires proofs whereas denialism is a belief in that its only proof is what these people “know”. You can’t argue with a believer but you can scientist or skeptic.

The panel is being sponsored by a megalithic oil company or some coal company which was a big donor to Donny Boy’s campaign.

The Climate Change panel doubles as the Ethics and Compliance in Government panel.

I doubt that this panel will ever have a meeting, much like the voter fraud committee of 2 years ago.

The biggest threat to national security isn’t climate change, it is trump.
