The thing about science is that it happens whether you believe it or not. Pretending we have not modified our weather & climate will not make the damage stop. This delusion from the administration will do lasting harm. If you voted for them, you enabled this. 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

“Broken promise. Abuse of power.”
