The Trump administration’s announcement that it would withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement is a largely symbolic move, but it is nevertheless another reminder of President Trump’s greatest folly: his disgraceful denial of the threat posed by catastrophic climate change. No matter who wins the Democratic presidential nomination, Trump’s open hostility toward any action on climate will elevate it to a defining issue in the 2020 campaign. Voters will choose between a president and Republican Party proud of systematic resistance to any action on climate, and a challenger and Democratic Party dedicated to historic efforts to limit the already costly threat to life as we know it.
Against this real and escalating threat, Trump — aided and abetted by Republicans in Congress — has pushed to roll back regulation after regulation to curb fossil-fuel emissions. The president has deep-sixed President Barack Obama’s climate plan, rolled back automobile mileage standards and opened federal lands to fossil-fuel companies.
At a time when the international scientific community has concluded that we have 11 years to avert the worst of climate change, Trump and his Republican allies are working to intensify the threat, not deter it. A more egregious dereliction of duty is impossible to imagine. Trump’s denial mirrors the story of Nero fiddling while Rome burns. Like Nero, Trump is helping set the flames. Democrats are raising the alarm. The contrast cannot be clearer.

Von Drivel denies that increased fracking has resulted in less CO2 [less coal, more gas uded to generate heat].
She’s an oblivious Hoax Denier.
Editor and publisher of The Nation? That is a hardcore Marxist rag.
“Man-made climate change is a Neo-pagan religious cult. There’s nothing ‘scientific’ about it.”
That’s a fact.
It’s these idiots that are climate cycle deniers.
“LAPELVIS”??!!!?
WTH kind of Auto Corrector do I HAVE!!? GEEZ..
“The republican principle demands that the deliberate sense of the community should govern the conduct of those to whom they intrust the management of their affairs; but it does not require an unqualified complaisance to every sudden breeze of passion or to every transient impulse which the people may receive from the arts of men, who flatter their prejudices to betray their interests.” ― Alexander Hamilton
Yep, just 11+ years and doesn’t this just PROVE how stupid Liberals are? Obama our ex Halfrican ex president just spent almost $15,000,000 on a new home on Martha’s Vineyard which will be under water in just a few short years!!

Until then, FO you liars
Actually Katrina, POTUS Trump has said many times that the Climate Changes.
He just doesn’t ascribe to the THEORY that Mankind is causing it.
Enough, enough! Our stupid culture and war against fossil fuels is driving many of our young people to despair and desolation. Some are committing suicide, deciding to never have children, etc.
There is nothing uplifting in the hoax of global warming and the concept that we only have 11 years left on the planet.
Halloween is over. Stop scaring the children!!! Boo Hoo!
You’re right, God IS in charge. These wayward individuals need to be more concerned about an eternal climate change.
Climate change is opinion not fact.
No one can deny that the climate changes. Its obvious that there are trends over long periods of time in temperature such as ice ages and warming periods.
Reasonable skeptics don’t say it isn’t changing they just say that the climate models that we have created to understand how it changes are too simple and lack the accuracy to determine the underlying causes of these changes. Without this understanding anything we do is more likely to make things worse.
Have any of you ever seen this deranged bitter b*tch on television? I have. Her sanctimonious arrogance is incredible.
On the Nasty B*tch Scale, she exceeds Kankles, Skanka Harris and Kolubchar COMBINED.
“Climate change is opinion not fact.”
Climate change is a vehicle meant to destroy the American middle-class.
Hyperbole much? Hmmm?
