Officials ousted from White House after papers casting doubt on climate science

Two controversial officials who have questioned climate science have been dismissed from the White House after they apparently published papers, which claimed to be from the administration, that promoted skepticism about climate change and its impacts.

The Washington Post reported that David Legates and Ryan Maue were ousted from the White House after the papers, which purport to be copyrighted by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), came to light.

Office spokesperson Kristina Baum told the Post in an email on Tuesday that OSTP Director Kelvin Droegemeier "was outraged to learn of the materials that were not shared with or approved by OSTP leadership."

"He first became aware of the documents when contacted by the press. As a result, Dr. Droegemeier took swift action and the individuals responsible have been relieved of their duties at OSTP," Baum said.
