We’re refusing the request. Let ALEC sue. The record will show that in 2013, ALEC offered “model legislation,” still available on its Web site, to state legislators, saying the science was uncertain about the role of human activity in climate change. The model resolution noted “such activity may lead to deleterious, neutral or possibly beneficial climatic changes. Further, a great deal of scientific uncertainty surrounds the nature of these prospective changes, and the cost of regulation to inhibit such changes may lead to great economic dislocation.” Moreover, at ALEC’s meeting this past December, speakers emphasized the ways carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere benefit the environment and the economy over time."
