I think this article is a waste of time. Rather than using actual sources the author uses scenes from mtv highschool sitcoms to prove their point. Also the author injects their personal bias into everything.

Do you have a source showing he is a climate change denier? I think you should provide one given that you posted this trying to attack his credibility.
