Republican lawmakers react to the IPCC report – ‘we have scientists’ too! | Dana Nuccitelli

While their responses were predictably terrible, it's nevertheless crucial for journalists to hold GOP politicians accountable for their climate denial and policy inaction. Donald Trump's answers were particularly ignorant and nonsensical in his 60 Minutes interview with Lesley Stahl.
