A must watch clip. Republican Bob Inglis challenges fellow republicans to, “Go on the record so your kids and grandkids can see what you said about climate change.” He makes two analogies that are easy to comprehend. First, if you take your kids to the doctors and 98 recommend treatment, and 2 recommend do nothing, which will you take? This is a stronger version of my argument that you can’t pit the ignorant against the educated, and call it a controversy. Second, Inglis goes on to say to his fellow “conservatives and business advocates in the room. China doesn’t think climate change will hurt business. At all. In fact, they’ve hit the fast forward button while the U.S. has hit pause. China is several years ahead in green technology.” 

GO BOB INGLIS!

In direct contrast to some legislators, Rep. Bob Inglis (R-SC) has a fairly realistic take on climate change. He’s even a Republican.
