Donald [Fucking] Trump has selected Scott Pruitt, the Oklahoma attorney general and a close ally of the fossil J.fuel industry, to run the Environmental Protection Agency, signaling Mr. Trump’s determination to dismantle President Obama’s efforts to counter climate change — and much of the E.P.A. itself.So we can now call it the "Environmental Pollution Agency".
Pruitt is a tool of the oil industry. He hasn't seen a resource he doesn't think should be extracted or an aquifer that he doesn't think should be polluted.

Trump thinks that climate change is a Chinese scam. There's already indications that he is going to purge everyone who works in that area.
The last national leader who put ideology over science was Josef Stalin, which is why nobody ever heard of noted Soviet biologists. Before that, another on ensured that he'd lose a war by assigning ideology to science.
