Charge: Obama, EPA use fake news to push global warming

The House chairman who oversees environmental policy on Thursday accused the EPA and administration of using fake news and “science fiction” to scare Americans into accepting expensive climate change regulations targeting the energy industry.

Texas Rep. Lamar Smith, chairman of the House Science, Space, and Technology Committee, said in a speech that the administration is hyping reports of global warming to implement anti-energy policies that will do virtually nothing to address climate change.
