Obama’s EPA Puts Politics Above Science

We wrote here about the Environmental Protection Agency’s scuttling of a report by one of its own scientists that says human activity has little or nothing to do with climate change. The Obama administration, the scientist’s boss explained, “has decided to move forward on endangerment”–i.e., to make the false finding that CO2 emissions endanger human health and well-being–and therefore “your comments” can only have a “negative impact on our office.”

On PJTV, I interviewed Sam Kazman of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, which broke the story. We explained the legal context of the EPA’s action and updated the story. You can watch the interview here.
