The best earth scientists around the world believe that the road to 7 degrees of global warming will gravely challenge our own survival. There is not a single scientific or political body in the world that disagrees with this assessment, except our president, the Republican Party, and their oil-rich sponsors.
In the past, we have witnessed corrupt corporate officers who would risk the future of their company, the livelihoods of their employees, and even their own careers, in exchange for a short-term, self-dealing payday. In similar fashion, the Trump administration intends to sacrifice the future security of civilization in exchange for today’s profits, amounting to a short-term win for his ego and his administration.
Trump’s catastrophic failure to perform his presidential duties is a betrayal of our country and the world. So much for making America great again.
