Arizona Court Spanks Climate Deniers



I asked Lauren Kurtz, Attorney for the Climate Science Legal Defense Fund, to give us an update on the latest embarrassment for the crank legal team currently known as E&E Legal, aka American Traditions Institute – the group that was soundly spanked by the Virginia Supreme Court last year, after its attempt to tie up the University of Virginia in pointless wrangling. Turns out judges in Arizona were no more sympathetic to science-denier attacks on academic freedom.

To the scientists especially for collecting the data and putting it to paper. And to the Climate Science Legal Defense Fund for stepping in, if they have to, to prevent this harassment.

If some weasel GOPer needs to make it his mission to discredit data, perhaps he should go collect his own set of independent data sets, using the scientific method and not some horseshit cherry picking goose chase, and present it on his own. Nobody will care. I certainly won't.

Otherwise, STFU Chris Horner! I don't even want to hear the bad breath coming out of your vile mouth. We need to keep focused on identifying problems and finding solutions. E&E is just a brat trying to get attention from the adult in the room.
