Inclusion of a story in the Spotlight does not necessarily indicate my agreement with or endorsement of it. OUTSTANDING GREEN STORIES pierre9045 writes—Reminder: FL Scientists Banned From Mentioning Climate Change - But State is Now Relying on Them: “I would like to point out for the record that the Governor of Florida, Rick Scott — under whom state scientists have been banned from using the term “Climate Change” in any official capacity — is now bracing for Hurricane Irma, ordering evacuations and declaring a state of emergency, and effectively ordering the entire Florida government to rely heavily on the knowledge of modern climatology and weather science, as well as the sophisticated predictive models that are the culmination of all the research of climate scientists, that is based on the exact same science and research that have largely driven the broad consensus within the science community that human-caused climate change is occurring.In other words, what Rick Scott and his climate change-denying administration are largely denying and claiming has not yet been fully proven, which is the scientific findings that are the evidence for Climate Change, they will turn around and show they believe — when their lives are on the line.” ClimateDenierRoundup writes—It’s That Time of Year: Is Arctic Sea Ice Stabilizing?
