November 16, 2017

A new report released by the Trump administration confirms that the effects of climate change are being caused by “human activities.” It reconfirms that average global surface air temperature has increased by 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit over the last 115 years, that the average sea level has risen 8-9 inches since 1900 and that there have been increases in the amount and intensity of extreme weather events including rainfall, heat waves, and large wildfires. It also calls for an extreme reduction of carbon dioxide emissions in the country.
