Ron DeSantis can deny climate change all he wants. In Florida, nature has the last word.
Without bad luck, Florida governor Ron DeSantis would have no luck at all.
After a Hindenburg of a presidential campaign, he is back to governing the only way he knows how not by trying to help people, but by trying to get their goat.
In keeping with this curious public policy style, on May 15 he signed legislation wiping any reference to climate change from his states agencies and blocking a grab-bag of clean energy initiatives, from off-shore windmills to ensuring gas stoves would run on gas.
This, fresh off his bold move to block the commercial use of lab-grown meat, a circumstance that doesnt exist and probably never will.
