400 billion in hurricane damage from 4 category 5's and a Gulf 2 to 7 degrees warmer than normal.
California on fire, Canada on fire, California on fire again, plus all the regular yearly worsening normal forest fires.

(55,445 posts)is that climate change is a communist plot by Red China to weaken us on trade (and he pulled us out of the Paris Climate Accords), and the stance from Bush Jr. was climate change was a big con by liberal college professors to keep those sweet sweet research grants flowing, it's no surprise that few Americans take environmental issues seriously...
