How the 2014 midterm election FUCKED the environment.

I don't normally write about politics on this blog of random thoughts, but today I am.

Do you know this guy?

Well that is Senator James Inhofe.  

Senator James Inhofe meet my readers.

Everyone, meet Senator James Inhofe.

Senator James Inhofe has been serving our country since 1994.  Congrats on 20 years of service.

So, what does this guy have to do with the environment!?

Long story short.... 

The recent mid-term election gave the power of the senate to Republicans.  

Senator James Inhofe will become the head of the Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee.

The EPW deals with the following... 

1. Air pollution. 

2. Construction and maintenance of highways. 

3. Environmental aspects of Outer Continental Shelf lands. 

4. Environmental effects of toxic substances, other than pesticides. 

5. Environmental policy. 

6. Environmental research and development. 

7. Fisheries and wildlife. 

8. Flood control and improvements of rivers and harbors, including environmental aspects of deepwater ports. 

9. Noise pollution. 

10. Nonmilitary environmental regulation and control of nuclear energy. 

11. Ocean dumping. 

12. Public buildings and improved grounds of the United States generally,including Federal buildings in the District of Columbia. 

13. Public works, bridges, and dams. 

14. Regional economic development. 

15. Solid waste disposal and recycling. 

16. Water pollution. 

17. Water resources.

Being the head of the EPW is an important job, right?

Do you know what this book is?

This is the book that the Senator wrote.

And here's the main description...

The Greatest Hoax, Senator James Inhofe will reveal the reasons behind those perpetuating the Hoax of global warming, who is benefitting from the general acceptance of the Hoax and why the premise statements are blatantly and categorically false.

So you have Senator James Inhofe who doesn't believe in global warming, sworn to protect the environment.  

Thanks American politics.  Thanks.
