If you wonder why @MarkHoofnagle and I call the @ACSHorg an astroturf group, read this post claiming that the free market will take care of air pollution and lead the US to meet the Paris Accord targets for reductions in CO2 emissions.

I notice how no mention is made of the massive subsidies granted to fossil fuels amidst the complaints about the government interfering with the free market to "pick winners and losses." 2/

Of course,
@ACSHorg is the same group that published an article a year ago lauding@realDonaldTrump's science picks. 3/https://www.acsh.org/news/2017/01/30/evaluating-president-trumps-science-and-health-choices-10784 …1 reply 0 retweets 0 likesShow this thread -

You get the idea. To @ACSHorg environmentalists are damned dirty hippies interfering with the magic of The Invisible Hand of the Free Market, and someone as obviously corrupt as Scott Pruitt is a defender of science. 7/7
