USA Today features Climate Depot: Pope lobbying for a UN climate treaty is an ‘unprecedented action and massively misguided’
USA Today: A group of climate change skeptics from the conservative Heartland Institute were also at the summit. They said the pope should not lend his moral authority to the climate change agenda. "If Pope Francis goes ahead with his climate encyclical and uses it to essentially lobby nations to commit to a development-limiting U.N. climate treaty, it will be unprecedented action and massively misguided," said Marc Morano who oversees the climate change skeptic site ClimateDepot.com, in a statement. "And to now have the pope jump on that bandwagon would sow confusion among Catholics."
