Part of me is relieved that our civil rights icons and legends are leaving this mortal coil. They don’t deserve to watch their work be undone.

If the Supreme Court ever rules carbon isn’t a public health danger, it won’t be a legal decision, it’ll be a confession: science discarded, reality vetoed, and fossil fuel money seated on the bench. At that point, stop calling it governance and start calling it fraud.

The EPA no longer exists. Its actions yesterday were an act of appeasement for the oil and gas industry, the very sector it’s meant to oversee.

POTUS doesn’t care about your health or your child’s health.

Society will bear the costs of this selfishness.

Dozens of researchers will move to France from US following high-profile bid to lure talent Large proportion worked at Columbia University, which had its grants cut and frozen by the administration of US President Donald Trump.

More than 10,000 Ph.D. scientists were fired by the Trump administration last year. Grant cuts affected more.

"A few dozen got jobs in other countries" is not a serious solution.

There are not enough jobs in the whole world. The result will be less science, not the same science just elsewhere.
