Because they want a token right-winger, and he won a Pulitzer.
Here's the link to the actual column: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/28/opinion/climate-of-complete-certainty...

You got me curious enough to check out what pieces he got his Pulitzer for. Some are very interesting.

I haven't seen any prize-worthy climate change skepticism in there yet. ;0)

From what the Pulitzer committee commended as a guy with unique 'contrarian twist', Bret's twist on climate change Vox interview:
Absurd. "Presumably including himself" because right wing grifters and their crackpot mob cannot believe anybody acts for anything but self interest.
Climate science should have been left to experts in atmospheric science. Like other science issues like soil biochemistry and the disposal of toxic chemical waste.
It was a huge crime for the GOP, Koch brothers, $$ etc to turn it into another political football.

The same is true for Gynecology, Infectious Diseasees, Pediatrics (discussing guns with little children; vaccines, etc); and Health Care in General. Many more areas of expertise have been co-oped by political lackeys, religious nuts, and grifters,
Sad.
