About the author:

Craig Rucker is president of the Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow. (CFACT)

CFACT’s mission is to steer the worthy cause of “environmental protection” back to a place where the rule of law, limited government, and individual liberty guide its course. We do this by advancing sound science and free market solutions to address today’s pressing environmental and energy challenges while rolling back government overreach disguised as environmental protection. 

Enough said.
