Trump Admin Goes After States for Protecting the Environment
The Trump administration has been on a collision course with California, and it appears that collision is imminent. An administrative action to undermine the authority granted to the state by the Clean Air Act to protect its citizens from vehicle pollution appears to be imminent. This illegal attack is not just harmful for the nation's most populous state—it is an attack on the 13 states and the District of Columbia that follow California's lead and, ultimately, the entire country. The American auto industry and the American public will be worse off as a result.California's laws to reduce pollution from cars and trucks have long been a target of the Trump administration. Along the way various officials have given lip service to a commitment to negotiate with California and the desire to maintain a national program. Yet the administration ended the supposed negotiations despite Congress members from their own party telling them to go back to the negotiating table. There may be no surer sign that the administration negotiated with CA in bad faith than a deal that California and several automakers agreed to weeks ago. Fed up with an intransigent administration proposing actions that will undermine their businesses, BMW, Ford, Honda and VW agreed to a compromise agreement with California.
So it comes as little surprise that despite opposition from the regulated industry to a roll back and overwhelming public support for more efficient vehicles, the Trump administration is launching a direct attack on California's long held authority to clean up vehicle pollution.

sheer insanity...... He seems to be doing everything in opposition to what should be done........and what are the current concerns.
In fast-thawing Siberia, extreme warming is warping the ground, upending agriculture and spurring an exodus of climate refugees
The permafrost that once sustained farming is in the midst of a great thaw, blanketing the region with swamps, lakes and bizarre bubbles of earth that render the land virtually useless. A Washington Post analysis found one eastern region has warmed by more than 3 degrees Celsius since preindustrial times �� roughly triple the global average.
For the 5.4 million people who live in Russia��s permafrost zone, the new climate has disrupted their homes and their livelihoods. Thousands are leaving the countryside for the regional capital.

when parts of the planet become uninhabitable.......the climate migration issue will test nations.......with a ripple effect.
Folks have a choice: believe the Trump nonsense & denials. or believe science and the factual evidence as it is unfolding in real time. It behooves humans to do whatever they can to preserve this planet .......their home. Some things we have no control over.......but we must learn and do something about those things we can control . Playing ostrich does no one any good.

Hey OB do you actually think this is a true story? If so what crop are they growing in permafrost? What livestock are they grazing on permafrost? Why can't we farm our permafrost?

It's like you get more and more stupid every day
Not farming on the Tundra according to your article, just cold weather.

The IPCC admitted in 2018 that all their climate predictions and projections were 100% garbage. "Because the climate is a chaotic, non-linear system, there's no way computer models can accurately predict what the climate will do in the future."
Source: The IPCC.
In fact, based on their computer climate models, we're supposed to be 4 degrees hotter than we are now. The World Meteorological Organization, the parent organization of the IPCC, even told them to knock off their fear-mongering.
500 Scientists signed a letter to the IPCC telling them to knock off their alarmist crap.
Funny how the MSM who has been pushing the climate fear-mongering stubbornly refuses to acknowledge they've been bamboozled and continue to push the lie.
Just farming Siberia. Can you believe there are some idiots that think you can't farm in Siberia?
Facing unbearable heat, Qatar is air-conditioning the outdoors. The rising temperatures signal a larger problem: Climate change.
Already one of the hottest places on Earth, Qatar has warmed by nearly double the global average, exceeding a rise of 2 degrees Celsius, the planetary limit set by international climate negotiators. The tiny, fabulously rich country has delayed the 2022 World Cup soccer tournament until November to avoid the blistering summer heat. Soaring temperatures have been driven in part by fast urbanization, as well as an accelerated warming trend affecting much of the Middle East.
