Globally 2015 was hottest year on record. So far, this year is on track to break that record. 2016 been as hot as #PokemonGO. #WebOfDenial

Anyone watching tonight younger than 31 has never exp a month whose temp. was below 20th century avg. Last happened in Feb. '85 #WebOfDenial

Exxon, Kochs & others whose profits might suffer under rules 2 cut CO2 have had vested interest in stopping #climate action. #WebOfDenial

Millions of $ that Marshall Institute received from Exxon & Koch-connected foundations over the years have allowed the #WebOfDenial to grow.

We know that Kochs, Exxon & major donors have invested millions into orgs that actively work to discredit #climatechange. #WebOfDenial

It's been reported that the oil & gas industry, including Kochs, Exxon spent $175M & hired more than 800 lobbyists in 2009. #WebOfDenial

But members in the House knew better. They saw that Waxman-Markey was good for our environment, good for our economy & good for America.

The oil & coal industries won’t stop their efforts because now the presumptive nominee of #GOP is a #climate denier. #WebOfDenial
