The GOP Backlash to Climate-Change Deniers Begins Now

PolicyMic: When I was 18 I registered to vote. The choice was easy at the time: Republican. Though liberal on social issues, I prioritized national security, leaned toward free market policies (this was before the 2008 financial crisis), and I was a proponent of the environment. In our current political environment that last part may seem odd, but it is sometimes forgotten that it was Richard Nixon that signed off on the Clean Air and Water Acts, the National Environmental Policy Act, and the Endangered Species...

Interior Secretary Says She Wants 'No Climate Change Deniers' in Her Dept

E & E: Interior Secretary Sally Jewell today challenged her employees to take an active role in the moral imperative to address climate change. I hope there are no climate change deniers in the Department of Interior, she said. If there are any, she invited them to visit public lands managed by the agency be it the melting permafrost in Alaska or shrinking snowpacks in the Sierra Mountains as proof. If you dont believe in it, come out into the resources, she said. Interior will be following...

The Heretic: Mr Bean's play about climate change deniers and liars
2013-07-22 01:19:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Business Review: The Heretic by Richard Bean Auckland Theatre Company Maidment Theatre Until August 10 We dont get many politically incorrect plays but playwright Richard Bean (One Man. Two Guvnors), who admits to being something of a climate change sceptic, takes pot shots at the debate with The Heretic. Its a play which mocks both the climate change deniers and the liars, scientists who know how to work the system and scientists who abuse it. It is a riotous roller coaster of laughs deploying cynicism,...

Mapping the climate change deniers making our laws
2013-07-06 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Fast Company: In a post-fact era, you can be an elected official and have a remarkably flexible relationship with the truth. Take climate science: more than 97% of scientists agree that climate change is a man-made phenomenon, but conservative politicians--and more than 65% of Republicans in Congress--outdo one another to demonstrate just how little they believe in science.
