EPA chief Scott Pruitt says carbon dioxide is not a primary contributor to global warming

Oh my god, how is this even real life? We have an epa administrator who doesn't even understand basic climate science. This isn't exactly challenging rocket science here.

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt said Thursday he does not believe carbon dioxide is a primary contributor to global warming.

"I think that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do and there's tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact, so no, I would not agree that it's a primary contributor to the global warming that we see," he told CNBC's "Squawk Box."

"But we don't know that yet. ... We need to continue the debate and continue the review and the analysis."

The statement contradicts the public stance of the agency Pruitt leads. The EPA's webpage on the causes of climate change states, "Carbon dioxide is the primary greenhouse gas that is contributing to recent climate change."

1. He's a lawyer not a scientist

He would find brain surgery challenging as well.

2. Seems like nobody in the government is qualified anymore

You could probably find a HS teacher who would do a better job than some of these guys.
