WASHINGTON — A Trump administration national security official has sought help from advisers to a think tank that disavows climate change to challenge widely accepted scientific findings on global warming, according to his emails.
Academic experts denounced the administration official's continued involvement with groups and scientists who reject what numerous federal agencies say is the fact of climate change. President Donald Trump in November rejected the warnings of a national climate change assessment by more than a dozen government agencies.Happer, a physicist who previously taught at Princeton University, has claimed that carbon dioxide, the main heat-trapping gas from the burning of coal, oil and gas, is good for humans and that carbon emissions have been demonized like"the poor Jews under Hitler.
Happer at the time was not yet a security adviser, although he had advised the Trump Environmental Protection Agency on climate change."We provide the data that informs policy makers around the world," spokesman Bob Jacobs said."Our science information continues to be published publicly as it always has."
