We've elected a president who thinks Climate Change was made up by China. Not to mention Republican Senate and House, and probably at least two more conservative justices. Trump from what I understand is intent on undoing any executive action Obama took with regards to the issue.

It was arguably already a lost cause, but eight years from now will certainly be way too late to stop the worst of it. Lost cause, or am I being pessimistic?

yes. At least for now.

Expect regulations to be removed en masse.. We're on our way towards China like cities filled with smog and pollution.

Breh the overwhelming evidence suggests that there is man made global warming from greenhouse gasses. Literally every major university on earth every reputable institute... the science is over on this. It's a done deal it does exist. There is no academic dissent.

Stop letting facts get in the way of ignorance or a reactionary agenda.

:comeon: How much of that evidence have you examined yourself ? Everyone repeats that "consensus" mantra but few have actually followed it up.
I looked into it and found cooked books,politically based projections and a disconcerting lack of skepticism...Anytime politics gets mixed in with science Truth always becomes a casualty.

Im not against environmentalism as an ideal..we do need to clean up our act but creating fake data to back up politics is not helping anyone...the modern environmental movement has morphed into some blatantly Malthusian agenda.
