I’m a recovering Republican, and I don’t recognize my party any more. I’m ashamed so many Republicans don’t recognize the science. The writing is on the wall. … My dad was the biggest Republican that ever walked the earth. He always said: ‘Actions have consequences.’ To pretend that a 38 percent increase in greenhouse gases isn’t going to have any impact, that we can have our cake and eat it too, and smear it all over our face, and maybe have our grandchildren deal with the hangover, I think it is immoral.
Meteorologist Paul Douglas, from “Paul Douglas: ‘I’m a recovering Republican, and I don’t recognize my party any more’” by David Brauer
