Hi, I'm a Republican conservationist. You may know me from my greatist hits including "We Need a Man Like Teddy Again", "Lincoln Does Yosemite", "Reagan and the Montreal Protocol", "Read My Lips-No Net Loss of Wetlands", and "Yes, Virginia, there are green Republicans".

Hi, I’m a climate scientist. You may know me from my greatest hits including, “No, it’s not a natural cycle,” “Yes, I know it’s been warmer before (and the only reason YOU know is because we scientists told you so),” and “Just because it’s on YouTube doesn’t mean it’s true.”
