The Trump transition team is compiling a list of staffers at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) who have attended climate change meetings. They have sent a questionnaire with some 70 items wanting to know who did what, when and where.
Next step: Get them out, as a new leader -- an opponent of regulation and a climate change denier -- takes over as head of the EPA.
Couple that with President-elect Donald Trump's other choices for Cabinet-level positions in a new Administration, and all signs point to a purge of professionals in favor of arch-conservatives who want to eliminate government regulation of anything that might impede corporate profits.
