Jeffrey Bossert Clark, a lawyer who has repeatedly challenged the scientific foundations of U.S. climate policy and was part of a legal team that represented BP in lawsuits stemming from the nation’s worst oil spill, the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster, was nominated by President Donald Trump on Tuesday to serve as the Justice Department’s top environmental lawyer.
“When did America risk coming to be ruled by foreign scientists and apparatchiks at the United Nations?” Clark demanded in a 2010 blog posting on the Environmental Protection Agency’s endangerment finding.
Clark was prominently involved in industry challenges to the EPA’s “endangerment finding” that set the scientific basis for all subsequent attempts to regulate greenhouse gases, including from autos and industrial sources. It was a demonstration of opposition to the underpinnings of the whole Obama administration regulatory approach to carbon dioxide, which were consistently upheld by the Supreme Court.

How about “balanced” view of climate change.

"When did America risk coming to be ruled by foreign scientists and apparatchiks at the United Nations?" Holy cow ... this rivals my tagline for the top spot in the list of great quotes about this climate-change nonsense.

Whatever happened to that Exxon Valdez captain, Joseph Hazelwood?
I'd love to see him in the administration.

Not just against climate change, but actually against climate itself! That shouldn't be grounds for disqualification, since he has no ability to make it stop climating.

How about “balanced” view of climate change.
What does “balanced view" even mean?
Who gets to determine the tipping point? You? Why you?
First,someone has to do what has not been done...Prove with exact science that man is responsible for and is actually capable of altering/effecting the climate.

Seriously, Trump has had one HUGELY spectacularly GREAT few weeks! He is draining the swamp and killing the swamp creatures.

The major need for an Environmental Attorney in the DOJ is to prosecute eco-loons for crimes against humanity.
