“The irony is that Trump is attacking the institutions and foundation of US science that literally made America great.”
The Trump administration has shut down more than 100 climate studies
Tens of millions of dollars in NSF grants have been slashed, and scientists fear the US is about to lose a generation of climate researchers.

About 40% of human-caused methane emissions are from agriculture (mostly livestock, some rice) and 35% are from fossil fuels. 🧪 www.unep.org/resources/re...
More than half of global methane emissions stem from human activities in three sectors: fossil fuels (35 per cent of human-caused emissions), waste (20 per cent) and agriculture (40 per cent). In the fossil fuel sector, oil and gas extraction, processing and distribution account for 23 per cent, and coal mining accounts for 12 per cent of emissions. In the waste sector, landfills and wastewater make up about 20 per cent of global anthropogenic emissions. In the agricultural sector, livestock emissions from manure and enteric fermentation represent roughly 32 per cent, and rice cultivation 8 per cent of global anthropogenic emissions.
