U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has instructed the Environmental Protection Agency to remove the climate change page from its website, two agency employees told Reuters, the latest move by the newly minted leadership to erase ex-President Barack Obama's climate change initiatives.

The employees were notified by EPA officials on Tuesday that the administration had instructed EPA's communications team to remove the website's climate change page, which contains links to scientific global warming research, as well as detailed data on emissions. The page could go down as early as Wednesday, the sources said.

"If the website goes dark, years of work we have done on climate change will disappear," one of the EPA staffers told Reuters, who added some employees were scrambling to save some of the information housed on the website, or convince the Trump administration to preserve parts of it.

The sources asked not to be named because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

Earlier today I made a list of all the fucked up shit he's done in the last few days for talking points with coworkers, etc. I logged back on tonight to see it just got bigger. Jesus.

This is the Republicans' wet dream... Where science, education, responsibility and common sense have no fucking place.

Fuck the GOP

Can you post your list?

 

[tbm24]

At this point we can expect Trump to scrub all climate change research he can so when he goes and cuts majority of regulations in place to combat climate change, the federal government won't have evidence for detractors to point to. Helps for the inevitable Alternative Science.

 

[WeAreStarStuff]

Sad and pathetic. Too many shitty threads in a row about Trump to handle atm...sigh.

Seriously; I have five tabs open and they are all diff. threads about Trump.

How can we help them archive the site in it's entirety?

 

[i-Lo]

Only 1,455 days to go!

If they were indifferent enough to vote him in once, that number should be twice as large because the republicans will find ways to prevent minorities and the poor from voting in 2020.

 

[FyreWulff]

Can they say no?

Nope.

 

[Dierce]

Get fucked republican mother fuckers. I wish all of you could have your own universe away from ours so you can experience your own masochistic fantasies.

 

[giga]

How can we help them archive the site in it's entirety?

Honestly, Google et al need to do something about this. If we can't trust our government for these basic resources, we need the private sector to step up.

One day I'll have to explain to my (as of yet nonexistent) child exactly why the earth is so fucked... and why we voted in this piece of shit.

[beelzebozo]

fuck every single trump voter to death.

 

[Dierce]

So.

How many years until the USD becomes worthless, anyway.

Russia wanted this to happen because it is the only way that they can come up on top. It is a race to the bottom and every country in the world will be part of the whirlpool with Putin laughing along the way.

 

[PsychoSoldier]

My mind is still trying to grasp that this is real and is resisting it all the way.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

This is dictatorship regime levels of truth and information control at play.

 

[i-Lo]

Oh & from now on you'll get alternative facts & figures on climate change.

 

[Gutek]

Thanks for destroying the future, Republicans.

You are traitors to America and the human race.

 

[clay_ghost]

So.

How many years until the USD becomes worthless, anyway.

On one hand, Trump will destroy the climate and flood my country.
On the other hand, cheap import from Amazon!

America seriously fucked up, huh.

Big league!
