Is this true or is it fake news? realDonaldTrump

After everything they gave away to big budinesd, after cutting worker safety and clean air standards the economy, stock market and jobs growth have ALL fallen off the 7 year trajectory inherited from POTUS44... AKA slowing since gop & realDonaldTrump took over!

Trump is doing the bidding of his energy donors...they pay his bills and he loosens the restrictions

Are people ready to pay the price? See how they react in France.

AGuyNamedDrake when, to her verygreat

This isn't just trump. Many Republicans believe it's all in God's hands and we can't change anything. Just like the religious in dark ages that thought only God could heal you from disease.

realDonaldTrump must be longing for 19th century London.

Paris ClimateChange

The next president better make climate his first priority cause it’s going to be needed and sadly even then it will be to late to fix

Climate Change.. just what in the world does that mean? The climate has been changing for billions of years. It will be changing for billions of years after man is no longer on this planet. Guess the key work Climate Warming or cooling didn't work so you change it to 'Change'.

Hello earthlings, please everyone help save the planet because rich bachelors with no kids, don't care about the destruction they cause, Elon musk, especially, the trump admin z blah blah blah, I could go on but I'm saving my energy for when trump is finally arrested.

Forget the Mueller investigation, get him on global murder.

Ah, but 'clean coal' (file under 'healthy disease') is actually GOOD for the environment! It's been reported! (Fox News) and Tariff Man has heard it is also rejuvenating the economy in Kentucky and West Virginia, where the run off has purified streams and rivers.

Americans realize that unfortunately we may need to wait until 2020 to restore all the Environment bills on coal that Trump killed. Coal is a third world country energy source with The harshest Environmental Effects on Climate Change by all forms of energy. A new President 2020.

It is all about jobs and life and liberty

Waste of time, carbon emissions will only increase if human population isn’t plateaued if not reduced. Developed countries are having less children as it is, it’s time to look at making sterilization part of aid packages for the third world.

What has the one to do with the other?

He doesn’t care about America tomorrow just his ‘ratings’ today

The state of our world, we roll back for coal, China is landing robots on the moon.

There is no such thing as 'global warming' a.k.a. 'climate change'. Those phrases never existed until Al Gore was offered a lot of $$ to write a book about it.

Trump believes he can control reality just by insisting. DonTheCon UGotConned TrumpCrash2018

France is burning 👍🏻 We already do more than most other countries to fight pollution and the majority of the garbage is China on our west coast. Stop feeding us crap

He's a terrorist. A danger to the very existence of humankind

CNN Corrupt News Network, global warming is a hoax. CNN Sucks

Climate change is BS

Detroit needs to clean it’s emissions

There Is No Such Thing as“CleanCoal” ClimateChangeIsReal

UvKLvr47 Can we declare Trump the biggest enemy of the US & The World & have him arrested 4 ClimateTerrorism

Stupidity is Trump's greatest asset

France has got this. We good.

That's what the Devil has planned. He's destroying our planet

This : is destroying our country and world. He needs to be removed.

realDonaldTrump 's definition of climate is how warm or cold is his reception at a gathering.

Great pic...a Pelosi stack...a Schumer...a warren...but where is the biggest stack spewing out shit...CNN?

In poker that would be calling a bluff & doubling down.

This from the POTUS who claims to want clean air and water.

Better tell those in California to stop driving, and those Hollywood celebs and people like Sanders to stop jetting around. Then you can criticize the Trump administration.

It sometimes seems when he wakes in the morning, he's thinking, 'What can I do to make things worse?' I don't really believe that's the case, but if it were, he'd be batting pretty close to 1.000.

Here is what water looks like when coal byproducts are allowed to be dumped. Trump says ok.

The Government? Who believes what THEY say?

Not surprising. Trump's looking to put coal in everyone's stocking this Christmas.

Wait, aren’t electric batteries made predominantly from coal?

I just bought a solar plane with Soros Funded Yuan. Got it 15 feet off ground for 3 secs. Progress being made in solar.

What about taxing Cruise Ships the appropriate amount for pollution and putting garbage in the oceans? How about a 💯 % tax deduction for every home that installs solar panels? How about paying 3rd world countries for every bag of garbage collected by people? Options

So much winning!

pldLMT Be nice if that white smoke meant we had a New prez

more FAKE fear mongering from CNN

... smart guy...!

Not surprising. He doesnt read. He only reverses things that hurt Americans.

One more reason Trumped should be dumped.

If this surprises anyone...you don't have a pulse. WAKE UP.

There is no point in pointing fingers at this point but we all know whos fault it is that 45 is our current president.....racism is essence of ignorance...

2020 win win win ,, DonaldTrump

No surprise since the head of the EPA is a former coal industry lobbyist. Does anyone see ANYTHING wrong with this picture?!?!

Maybe BernieSanders should stop spending 300k a month flying private? Or if we are serious, shut down the entire airline industry

Stop using electricity if you’re worried about it

2Freelancer The future is alternative energy! Think of the amount of jobs where manufacturing is important, reduction of CO2 and an aggressive plan towards climate change. Our children deserve better!

Trump is like a defiant child! If he can’t get his way he’ll do something to show no one can tell him what to do!

More reason to get him out of office!

HELLS GATE

Trump lives in YOUR HEADS EVERY FREAKIN DAY

The pricks don't care!

This is STABLE GENIUS TRUMP, LISTENING TO DUMB GUT TRUMP! This is what happens when you watch T.V. all day, and try to be on Twitter around the clock, not only do you not get anything done. You come up with all the wrong answers to problems. Really, your brain shrinks. Exp. Trump

Give Americans Black Lung Again GABLA

بكل اسف كل شيئ متاح امام العالم . القضاء على الانبعاثات . القضاء على كافة التغيرات المناخيه . الحصول على الطاقه النظيفه . كل الحلول متاحه الآن وبنتائج فوريه . من يعرقل

False Narrative

Good.

Unfortunately, everything is available to the world. Eliminate_emissions. Eliminate_all_climate_change. Access_to_clean_energy. All solutions are now available with immediate_results. Who hinders

What a farce that report is...80 years? Who knows what technology humans will develop. So many variables missing.

All that can be said is he too will have to meet his maker at the Pearly Gates, and he will have to answer the question: What did you do on earth to make it better while you were there? There will not be a back door or a wall to climb! Good luck!

So China is 10X worse cant go out side without a mask on. When is China going to cut back? There's nothing the USA can do to reverse the problem if China does not cut back as well .

And by the year 2020 the sun will burn out and we will all die.

Gee, that’s funny.. Audi/Fiat just decided to build a car manufacturing plant in Detroit. Oops. The lefty media didn’t tell America about thaf did they.... Hahahahaha 🍻

“Aggressive action”...like in France?

Trump hates the earth andlife on it.

Talk to China and India, Shitholes..

Another thing we will have to put back in 2020, for the love of god please choke on a Big Mac, oh ya he believes he is god

All that coal is going into realDonaldTrump's stocking. Nothing says bad more than collusion warcrimes bigotry hatred liar LiarInChief

As if we do not have enough to kill us now we have coal fired plants again sheesh!

POTUS Took an Oath, Swearing 2 Protect America & Its Ppls. Easing These Restrictions Seems 2 TOTALLY Go Against His Promise?! He Lies All The Time, So I Guess I Shouldn't B Surprised. Will The Ppl FINALLY Figure it Out When They'r Gasping 4 Air, Poisoned By H20 & Soil?!

CNN THATS STEAM!!!!

Lol we’re back to “global warming”😂😂😂 Make up your minds dopes😉

He and his family must breathe something different from the rest of the world. Between that, and the 500 Billion tons of pesticides that have been poured into the ground since WWII, only those with superhuman immunity will move across this earth unscathed. 💔

Compared to the rest of the world we burn coal in the cleanest fashion possible 🇺🇸

We know why Dems hate Coal. That's all Santa would bring them for Christmas. 🙁

These ppl must GO

Showing smokestacks? That is not how coal is burned anymore

I guess no one wants to report what’s happening over in France

literallyshaking nevertrump

Siberia and Alaska needs ALOT of thawing. Set cooker for coal.

Unacceptable!

Trump could care less.

Much needed and appreciated!

What about China?

Why repeat the same story over and over?

It's show how much serious Trump administration is about climate change..Should understand all devlopment be destructive if we don't care for nature

Fake news

Trump's administration = this:
