No. NO. This is bullshit. This is my money. We are Americans who stand for freedom and they are stealing our money and giving it to a foreign Nation who is bent on genocide. No. We need to stop them from doing this crap. We need to figure out a way to stop them.

BREAKING: The Trump EPA is about to revoke the scientific finding that underpins all climate regulation.
The agency is walking back the conclusion that greenhouse gases pose a risk to public health.
This will open the door to deregulation, a win for the fossil fuel industry.

For too long, a dangerous narrative has dominated: that Earth is a collection of "resources" for us to extract, a challenge for us to conquer, a bottomless pantry for us to consume.
This is human arrogance. And it is despicable.
