In related news oceans are warming even faster than previously predicted. Even Obama wasn't doing anywhere near enough about climate change and now the US goverment is going to basically working to accelarate it even more.

I'm looking forward to have the sea level rise faster than before.

So fucking depressing and there is nothing we can do.

Like Flint but nationwide, lmao. How shit can one man be. This is straight-up going back to the 80s.

80s? Clean Air Act was in the 60s and Clean Water Act was in the early 70s. We're rolling back 50+ years of progress at this point.

There are things you can do.

I'm fucking sick of this animated image. People seem to think that its an equal substitute for substance.

Because your post on the other hand had so much substance, it could barely contain it. The point is, it's not a shit post, and while there is certainly some things to add, I do think this is hardly a shocking move from the Trump admin as well.

One of the theories as to why crime has gone down so much over the past two decades is that we removed lead from the air, thus reducing brain damage caused by it in poorer areas near freeways and major traffic thoroughfares.

So let's get all that lead back in the air, crime will go up drastically, and we can then justify murdering and incarcerating even more poor brown people!

Win win for everyone (white) !

Basically a Nintendo & HD situation, and America's got the future of the Wii U.

A more obvious analogy would be the N64 going with cartridges when the market has already moved on to CDs.

How did we not get a climate change question in the debates? Unbelievable.

Yup. Life imitates art. Or something like that.

How does one sign an order detailing this...

We all know he's a moron who doesn't believe in it, but what does that actually entail?

Pretty sure we did. He denied it ever denying it:

I'd like to think my generation (30 somethings) are a bit more accepting of the idea of man-made climate change, so I'm optimistic that when the old fellas die off and we take their place, there will be more action taken on this.

The world doesn't need more engineers.

It needs more coal jobs.

Except we can't wait that long.

How fundamentally stupid must you be to want to roll back regulations against lead contamination. What an absolute unmitigated shithole this administration is.

Found the article on this:

Under the proposal, which was sent to the EPA this week, grants to states for lead cleanup would be cut 30 percent to $9.8 million, according to the source, who read the document to Reuters.

Grants to help Native American tribes combat pollution would be cut 30 percent to $45.8 million.

Poor and disadvantaged communities most need lead cleanup programs. They will be most impacted by this.

I heard climate change is only slightly less-awful than nuclear winter.

Hrm. 20 years from now... Severe droughts in the midwest, constantly flooded coasts, ocean too hot for fish as well. Possible shutdown of major currents from melted artic fresh water.
