A more cynical person than I would almost think they know their views can’t stand up to scientific inquiry.

Industry trolls are paid to spend their time scanning social media to plant denier comments, I know some who are doing it. We will all pay dearly for worshipping financial gain over the preservation of our home… the only one we have. We need a carbon fee and dividend yesterday to get industry into renewables. Better for the planet and the economy hands down. Ask Germany… they are kicking ass after doing just that in 1999.

These politicians are not true skeptics, open to questions, but ideologues, with closed minds.

This, to me, is criminal negligence, as they are avoiding the due diligence required for looking after the well-being of their constituents.
