The Environmental Protection Agency has canceled the speaking appearance of three agency scientists who were scheduled to discuss climate change at a conference on Monday, Oct 23, 2017.

Scott Pruitt, agency head, has said that he does not believe human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are primarily responsible for the warming of the planet. Source: E.P.A.
