No, but it's generally shown on the sub that climate change is fake news

I think you'll find people here who say its real, say its fake, and generally most can agree the alarmists help no one

I guess the real question isn't whether it exists or not, its what can actually be done about it?

Trump is a big believer in the environment

Because I don't hear many solutions coming from anywhere, just people saying we have to do something. Yet not what that something is, or if so, something that is actually realistically possible

IMO, we do not live in a society that enables the kind of mitigation needed to combat climate change.

So, basically nothing then

When 80% of the pollution comes from China, regulating the US won’t do much

Accurate

That includes air and water pollution

Either everyone has to play by the rules, or nobody will. Because playing by the rules when others don't puts you in a disadvantaged situation

Which only helps the ones not playing by the ruels

What about the rollback on environmental protections?

The biggest pollution producers are in the cities where liberals are in control. LA, New York, Chicago. Why haven't they done anything to fix their own issues?

Should nobody help them?

if I shoot myself in the foot, I dont have a right to force my neighbor to drive me to the hospital

Help who? The liberal politicians?

The people in those cites who are human beings.

People need to be held responsible for their bad policies

And the innocent people suffer

look at Baltimore

2 corrupt mayors in a row

Also it doesnt help anyone when the figureheads of the climate activists are doing everything they tell others not to do

The response translated
> Dear #Greta, thank you for supporting us railroad workers in the fight against climate change! We were pleased that you were on the ICE 74 with us on Saturday. And with 100 percent green electricity.

> It would have been even nicer if you had also reported how friendly and competent you were looked after by our team at your seat in first class.

Well, those people in those cities need to get rid of the corruption before any healing can begin. If you keep voting for people based on Party lines, and never giving anyone a chance that might actually do something, that's sorta on you

And what should the federal government do? Pay the states relief so they can launder it away to themselves?

Every time the federal government does a state bailout or gives funds to the states over half of the funds go to the politicians, and when states want to keep feeding off the feds the feds make stipulations for states to obey

There is no solution to do this federally as in the long run it harms everyone

Nothing like ever climbing taxes and ages of consumption

The government is terribly inefficient

Yes. That’s why donald trump has cleaned out personnel....and called out Baltimore and PR out on Twitter

State government tends to be far more efficient, federal government is supposed to be an arbitrator and minor regulator for interactions between the states

Trumps "rollbacks" are less rollbacks and more attempting to set the federal government closer to what its intended goal is

That goes back to what I said a bit ago. He levelled the playing field for Americans

We can't be limited when nobody else is. It puts us at a disadvantage

In the US if you want environmental protection, then given the variations between the states and available funds, it is up to those states to make those mandates, no federal blanket mandate is going to do it

<a:Boomer:584813810850856960>

Ive seen greater climate change activism in the midwest through choice of communities and people opting in than in what the federal government has tried to push

So what's the deal with impeachment?

I hear Adam Schiff is largely disliked.

There are two articles of impeachment. Abuse of power. And obstruction of congress (well only half of them)

But when I watch the hearings I see a man of integrity
