President Donald Trump‘s executive order ending the federal government’s push to transition to paper straws is a good reminder that environmentally-obsessed Democrats regularly botch “The Science.” This is especially true when it comes to their climate policies.

Trump’s executive order naturally earned a response from climate groups such as Oceana, whose “plastics campaign director” warned that “the world is facing a plastic pollution crisis, and we can no longer ignore one of the biggest environmental threats facing our oceans and our planet today.” Plastic straws, we were told, are a massive environmental threat. That’s why multiple Democratic states and cities have banned or restricted them.
