Need any more proof the EPA is a shady organization? This oughtta do it:
Think sunny days are good for plants? Not always. Sunlight causes #ozone to form, which harms foliage, weakens trees: http://t.co/6skU7aBsTx

Oh noes!
@JudicialWatch @EPA oh dear what have the trees done for how many BILLIONS of years?

The @EPA warns against "sunny days" – what a joke! https://t.co/p3mz2jsUIo

@EPA YOU HAVE COMPLETELY GONE INSANE. SUNLIGHT AND WATER IS WHAT CREATES LIFEFORM, INCLUDING PLANTS. FRIGGEN IMBECILES

@EPA Except for that whole photosynthesis thing. Seems a little important.

@EPA I presume you'll be regulating it then, a la CO2. Can't wait for the enforcement action against God.

Right?
The EPA’s heliophobia raises an excellent question:
@EPA So sunlight is bad, but the country should be moving exclusively towards solar power? Got it. Thanks a bunch!

Some entertaining pushback in the replies. @EPA took down the post, probably because of the insanity factor. https://t.co/i4gyxDOeme

@EPA strays off the science reservation again, and the Twittersphere quickly responds. Soon… no more linked page. pic.twitter.com/JHPE4KUHQu
