If Elected, Trump Would Mean Forever Climate Change Wars Or Something

(Before It's News)

Don’t misunderstand, at this point I do not trust Donald Trump on ‘climate change’. But, I do enjoy a good caterwauling from unhinged members of the Cult of Climastrology. Here’s Joe Romm, George Soros’ paid climate flunky, shrieking

Memorial Day: Trump’s War On Climate Action Would Ensure A World Of Wars

On Thursday, Donald Trump declared that if elected President, he would wage an all-out waragainst national and global climate action. On Friday, he went so far as to to deny the reality of California’s devastating drought.

Because Trump gave his big energy and climate speech right before Memorial Day, it is altogether fitting and proper that we look at what Trump’s plans to destroy a livable climate would mean for the future of war.

Trump said he would kill the EPA’s Clean Power Plan and all domestic climate-related regulations. And he said, “We’re going to cancel the Paris climate agreement” — truly humanity’s best if not only chance to avoid catastrophic irreversible climate change lasting 1000 years.

Now Trump can’t really cancel that agreement, since it involves nearly 200 other nations unanimously agreeing to leave most fossil fuels in the ground in a global effort to keep total warming “well below 2°C.” But since that agreement requires every country to ratchet down their carbon pollution targets ever five years, Trump could certainly throw a big wrench into the machinery of national and global climate action, making the already-difficult task of staying below 2°C nearly impossible.

He might not be able to cancel the agreement, but, he can end Americas’ involvement in it. Here’s the fun part, though

If President Trump does what he says he will, then America and the world will be doomed to decades, or more likely, centuries, of strife and conflict from catastrophic climate change from the synergistic effect of soaring temperatures, Dust-Bowlification, extreme weather, sea level rise and super-charged storm surges. These climate impacts will create the kind of food insecurity that drives war, conflict, and the competition for arable and habitable land.
