Trump is launching a concerted campaign to unleash the fossil fuel industry and to end all climate protection:
- Withdrawing from and trashing the Paris Climate Agreement
- Dismantling the Clean Power Plan
- Ceasing all payments to the international Green Climate Fund
- Appointing top climate denialist Myron Ebell to oversee the EPA demolition
- Allowing the wholesale extraction of fossil fuel on federal lands
- Approving the Keystone and Dakota Pipelines and other fossil fuel infrastructure
- Bringing back coal and promoting “Drill Baby Drill”
- Ending federally funded climate science and clean energy research
Essentially, Trump promises to destroy the climate and extinguish much of life on Earth! America is rogue regime on climate…We can bring the information to the American public, if funding can be secured. The Climate Emergency Coalition will be one group that asks philanthropy to fund such a summit…A highly visible Climate Summit is necessary; without US public support, there is no chance of effective climate action or effective US internal opposition to Trump and the Republicans. Yet Americans are mostly unaware of the severity of the crisis, and of our continuing fossil fuels excesses. In our ignorance, we continue in our “seemingly entitled” consumption patterns, relentlessly burning up what little global carbon budget remains.
