To the editor:
My blood boils as I read of President Trump making “good” on his promise to remove the United States from the Paris climate accord and then of his Environmental Protection Agency’s rollback of coal pollution rules to please his foundering coal industry supporters.
These are just a few of the myriad assaults on our environment and health dished out by the Trump administration.
At the same time, New Delhi’s air pollution crisis causes its leaders to impose an “odd-even” scheme for drivers, a paltry effort to alleviate the toxicity in the Indian capital city. Some of India’s distraught people want to escape, but where will they go? Pollution knows no boundaries.
Trump would have the U.S. abandon its role battling climate change. We must vote for a new president whose first order of business will be to rejoin the Paris agreement and restore our leadership in the world.

Note from KBJ: Global warming is a hoax, Gloria. It's why we elected Donald Trump. Guess what? We're going to elect him again!
