Wisconsin's PSC also cut climate topics from site

In addition to the Department of Natural Resources, a second state agency has scrubbed information on global warming from its website

For years, the Public Service Commission featured material devoted to climate change, including strategies designed to reduce Wisconsin's reliance on coal.

Then, sometime after May 1, the agency eliminated its global warming web page.

...

The PSC's former global warming web page featured, among other topics, links on the potential for development of wind turbines on the Great Lakes and exploring the potential for injecting carbon dioxide from coal-fired power plants in the ground.

Those topics can be still be found as part of past and current regulatory cases, but could be difficult to access by the general public.

As recently as December, DNR officials removed language from a page on the Great Lakes that had previously acknowledged the role humans play in global warming and added new wording saying climate change is a matter of scientific debate.

On Monday, the DNR said it made the change on the page after a northern Wisconsin newspaper asked whether the DNR should be posting information on its web page that stated human activities have played a role in increasing heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere.

I believe Wisconsin has a Republican governor, who like many of us believes man-made climate change and global warming are not settled science

Tammy was foisted upon us via massive amounts of ‘Dark Money’ from other states. That is something we have to watch out for as the Democrats rebuild their ‘brand.’

They’re going to sneak Socialists in under the radar wherever they can, in ANY state, if we’re not vigilant!

Luckily, we’ve shed 1,000 of them all across the board, thanks to 0bama, so we have a head start!
