“Buried in a lengthy Washington
Post article about President Obama’s environmental policy is an illuminating
anecdote about just how debatable the administration views climate change —
namely, not at all:
“In an agency-wide address to
employees Aug. 1, (Interior Secretary Sally) Jewell took the unusual step of
suggesting that no one working for her should challenge the idea that human
activity is driving recent warming. “I hope there are no climate-change deniers
in the Department of Interior,” she said.
“What would happen to somebody
at the department who raised some skepticism regarding Jewell’s take on climate
change? Would they be in danger of losing their job?
“For example, what if that
person posted a news article pointing out that the global temperatures have
been flat for the last two decades?” [Sean Higgins, Washington Examiner, 11AUG13]
