I guess the science isn’t settled
The nation’s largest business lobby wants to put the science of global warming on trial.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, trying to ward off potentially sweeping federal emissions regulations, is pushing the Environmental Protection Agency to hold a rare public hearing on the scientific evidence for man-made climate change.
Chamber officials say it would be “the Scopes monkey trial of the 21st century” — complete with witnesses, cross-examinations and a judge who would rule, essentially, on whether humans are warming the planet to dangerous effect.
Just a guess, but, I really doubt the EPA will actually do this, as, most of the Climahysterics do not actually want a public debate. Al Gore sure won’t debate anyone. Hansen doesn’t. Nor do the rest.
The EPA is having none of it, calling a hearing a “waste of time” and saying that a threatened lawsuit by the chamber would be “frivolous.”
Guess they won’t. Shocker. EPA spokeshysteric Brendan Gilfillan says the science is settled, damnitall, so, stop mucking around and ginning up opposition to AGW legislation with that damned science.

Heh. Of course, climahysterics will just say this is weather, or blame the chilly weather on climate change.
It’s also getting really cold in the Arctic
“We’ve never lost a national park before,” but global warming could change that. Yeah, sure. And climahysterics wonder why I call them climahysterics. (Paragraphs 6-9)
