"EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt said a newly released government report that lays most of the blame for the rise of global temperatures to human activity won't deter him from continuing to roll back the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, a major rule aimed at combating climate change."

The joke continues. Who needs a clean planet, right? 2018 and 2020 blowout Dem wins look likely, esp after last night.

Good. The clean power plan was an evil, monstrous, unconstitutional power grab. Regardless of your policy preference,  its downright absurd that after failing to pass congress as a law, cap and trade could be implemented nationwide by EPA fiat.

Perhaps, but that would be completely unrelated to this decision. People who care this much about climate change already vote for the Democrats.
