Earlier this month, Kentucky State Senator Brandon Smith (R-Hazard) argued that climate change on Earth is impossible because Mars is warming up and “we all agree” that Mars and Earth have “exactly the same temperature.” Except “we” don’t. Because the planets don’t. And did we mention this Senator has vested financial interest in preventing EPA carbon emissions regulations? Shouldn’t we demand more from lawmakers besides the pseudoscience and falsities spewed without transparency?
