 WAR OF THE WORDS : FLORIDA RETALIATES FOR STEAMY
      MEMES WITH STATEWIDE "CLIMATE CHANGE" BAN

The New York Times reports :

Florida’s state government will no longer be required to consider climate change when crafting energy policy under legislation signed Wednesday by Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican.

The new law, which passed the Florida Legislature in March and takes effect on July 1, will also prohibit the construction of offshore wind turbines in state waters and will repeal state grant programs that encourage energy conservation and renewable energy.
