When is Enough ,Enough?

Speaking of shams and jokes, I'm really glad the admin decided to release that 4 year climate report yesterday when there wouldn't be anything else to draw people's attention away.

What's that you say? The WaPo is a joke and totally uncredible? Fine. Let's go right to the source:

Oh look, they even made a convenient "Summary Findings" tab to make it easier for us non-science lovers.

Let's pull a quick paragraph to see if there's anything we can understand. How about the first one?

The impacts of climate change are already being felt in communities across the country. More frequent and intense extreme weather and climate-related events, as well as changes in average climate conditions, are expected to continue to damage infrastructure, ecosystems, and social systems that provide essential benefits to communities. Future climate change is expected to further disrupt many areas of life, exacerbating existing challenges to prosperity posed by aging and deteriorating infrastructure, stressed ecosystems, and economic inequality. Impacts within and across regions will not be distributed equally. People who are already vulnerable, including lower-income and other marginalized communities, have lower capacity to prepare for and cope with extreme weather and climate-related events and are expected to experience greater impacts. Prioritizing adaptation actions for the most vulnerable populations would contribute to a more equitable future within and across communities. Global action to significantly cut greenhouse gas emissions can substantially reduce climate-related risks and increase opportunities for these populations in the longer term.

Really, this is my major problem with the Trump admin. Everything else he does, all the executive actions he signs, everything he does without going through Congress can be reversed. But loosening laws and allowing the major polluting companies free reign to do whatever they want is only speeding up this runaway train we call global warming.
