Trump’s war on the environment

Defying US public opinion that has long favored climate action and environmental protection,  Donald Trump, president in 2025, demonstrates how much damage one leader can do when motivated by the ideology of revenge.  In only a few months in office, Trump has gutted scientific institutions of all kinds, from the Weather Service to the National Academy of Sciences; has started shutting down the Environmental Protection Agency, the Dept. of Interior, the National Park Service and many other federal institutions associated with conservation and the environment.  He has also promoted fossil fuel use and undercut energy conservation programs.  The sum of these and other  damaging, dangerous and illogical policies is an historically unprecedented global policy crisis.
