State distances itself from climatologist

Minner directs Legates not to use his title when speaking on climate change

WILMINGTON, Del. — Gov. Ruth Ann Minner has directed Delaware's state climatologist to stop using his title in public statements on climate change, citing a clash of views on global warming and confusion over the position's ties to the administration.

Minner, who made the directive in a letter, described the move as a way to "clarify" the role of David R. Legates, a prominent skeptic of views that human activities are warming the planet and triggering climate shifts.

Be a parrot or be quiet, so sez DE Governor. Sadly, science holds little sway in this state house.


All the ugly facts here.
