CNN's Costello: Climate Change Skeptics 'Aren't Listening to Scientists' or 'Reading the Bible'

In her coverage of “Wheel of Fortune” host Pat Sajak’s tweet about climate change and Sen. Marco Rubio’s (R-FL) recent comments on climate change, “CNN Newsroom” host Carol Costello declared “climate change is real.” Costello expressed exasperation that “some people keep debating it.”

She also asked why “can’t we just say it like it is — climate change deniers aren’t listening to scientists or they’re not reading the Bible, they are denying global warming for purely political reasons?” Costello then teed up Rev. Mitch Hescox, President of the Evangelical Environmental Network by asking, “Why do you think scientists are right?”
