Bull Shyt! Time for the left to get on the right side of this vulgar scheme.
Two Princeton, MIT Scientists Say "EPA Climate Regulations Based on a 'Hoax".
Lefty paid Physicists & meteorologists testify that the climate agenda is 'disastrous' for America!! Wrong
Two prominent climate scientists have taken on the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) new rules to cut CO2 emissions in electricity generation, arguing in testimony that the regulations "will be disastrous for the country, for no scientifically justifiable reason."
Citing extensive data to support their case, William Happer, professor emeritus in physics at Princeton University, and Richard Lindzen, professor emeritus of atmospheric science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), argued that the claims used by the EPA to justify the new regulations are not based on scientific facts but rather political opinions and speculative models that have consistently proven to be wrong.

One is not a climate scientist and was asked to leave the trump administration because his advisors thought he was a quack, and the other is a well-known climate skeptic who has been caught misquoting sources numerous times. Oh, and the original article was from Zero hedge.

Your fallback position for every topic seems to be if he, she, they, it doesn't have the mainstream stamp of approval he, she, they, it is wrong. You might want to take a look at that.

I did my own research on both of those clowns. And Zero Hedge is a Russian propaganda site. I will give you one guess what Russia's primary export is.

I would suggest to you that you take a look at where almost 100% of climate-change deniers draw their salaries from - and it's going to be one of about six think tanks like the Cato Institute, the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society, and American Legislative Exchange, etc...the vast majority of which are funded directly by either Exxon or especially the Koch Foundation. You know, Big Oil.
Most of those used to have another primary client before Big Oil. Many of these organizations - actually, many of the same people - used to spend their time creating pseudo-scientific studies claiming cigarettes didn't actually cause lung cancer on behalf of Big Tobacco. The Heritage Foundation's #1 donor by a mile up until around 1995 or so was Phillip Morris (Marlboro!)
We all know, after all, that the very best real scientific research takes place not in research labs or universities, but rather on K-Street by lobbyist firms. I mean, if you want the straight skinny on anything, your best bet is a political lobbyist, amirite? They're honest brokers and not at all influenced by the fact that they are directly funded by moneyed interests seeking influence over politicians, who we all also know are even more honest than the lobbyists.

So I'm just going to google these fellas, and lessee here...gosh. Shocker. Literally, this took 10 seconds: https://www.cato.org/people/richard-lindzen
