Scott Pruitt making An Example Generating CO2

Embattled EPA chief Scott Pruitt says he was trying to make an example for his staff.

"As we all know, carbon dioxide is the gas of life. Plants need it to make food for us and for animals. Growth is promoted by carbon dioxide!"

Pruitt said he had to fly to Morocco and then Paris to generate as much CO2 as possible by his jet travel. The fake science of NASA and others says we made the levels of CO2 go up, but Pruitt knows that "CO2 follows warming, does not cause it."

A private jet would burn even more fuel. Pruitt is in talks with Netjet to lease one.
