"The White House requested a PowerPoint presentation for President Trump from a group devoted to attacking climate science.
During the transition period after Trump's electoral victory, senior White House aides reached out to the Heartland Institute, a think tank that works to cloud the findings of scientists, to request a presentation on climate change, said James Taylor, the organization's senior fellow for environment and energy policy.
Taylor said the request came after former Vice President Al Gore met with Trump to talk about rising temperatures in December 2016."
