"The Biggest Climate Ghouls of the 2022 Midterms"

"November's ballots include some people spouting disturbing views on climate science."

"According to the world’s top scientists, we have less than three years to right the ship to avoid climate disaster. Across the globe this summer, heat waves, fires, and floods are affecting millions of people and destroying lives as the impacts of our warming planet get more severe. Some scientists suggest that we may not even be thinking about the worst-case scenarios.

But you wouldn’t know things were so dire from the way some candidates for public office talk about climate change. As the U.S. counts down the weeks until the midterm elections in November, let’s take a look at who has the most—and dumbest—stuff to say on climate change."
