Climate Change’s PR Disaster | Mother Jones
The Republican Party has largely decided that climate change simply doesn’t exist. It’s a hoax. And that leads them to oppose everything, even programs that have light footprints, don’t cost a lot of money, and don’t require massive regulation. After all, why should they support them if the problem they address literally doesn’t exist?
This is why so many environmentalists have switched gears recently, suggesting that climate change action should be disguised as energy research, national security programs, or competition with China for market share in the green market. And maybe that will work for a while. But just saying something doesn’t exist doesn’t make it so. Eventually even the GOP is going to have to acknowledge this.
