That includes funding for Barack Obama’s signature climate change initiative, his Climate Action Plan, to reduce America’s use of coal-fired electricity.

The worldwide golden calk of AGW is being melted into bullion.

The world’s leaders will very much be hampered to use it to line their pockets and control their populaces.

Trump WINS AGAIN!

I guess that means modern society will have to continue as normal. So much for progress back to prehistoric times.
