The EPA "leaders" want to keep their government jobs-----imagine someone in the EPA coming out and publicly stating that human activity has done nothing to change the climate----"Gone in Sixty Seconds" would be a gross underestimate of their longevity.
Imagine a climate scientist putting forth a proposal for a government grant with the premise that he intends to show human activity causing climate change is a myth----can anyone spell a grant of ZERO
Can you imagine a professor of climatology at one our universities (bastions of free speech    ) teaching their students that anthropogenic climate change is a myth?
And then the truly indoctrinated tout that "90%+ of climate scientists agree that human activity is driving climate change". First of all, that number has been shown to be false and secondly, DOH!!!! no kidding
And those are just the people trying to preserve their salaries. Then we can move on to those that stand to make hundreds of millions for this farce....

The people who have a vested, financial interest are not the people who work for the EPA but the fossil fuel industry that has billions of dollars at stake, and they're the ones funding climate change denial like their funding of conservative think tanks that propagandize and politicize the issue like the Heritage Foundation and American Enterprise Institute. Listen to a climate scientist rather than your own rigid political views. But you won't listen despite all the links to scientifically-based information that I have posted in this forum. It won't affect you down the road because you won't be around much longer, so no matter what someone says that is contrary to what you believe, you won't change:
"Would 2022 be considered a typical hurricane season?
It’s a little early to say. So far in 2022, we've had nine named storms. We've had four hurricanes and two major hurricanes, including Ian, which made landfall on the Gulf Coast of Florida as a Category 4. So, if the hurricane season ended today, it would be considered a below-normal hurricane season. But we still have two full months left in the official hurricane season, and it would not be surprising if we saw six more named storms and or four more hurricanes."
