TRUMP’S LIES, CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE FUTURE OF THE PLANET
The last eleven years have been the hottest eleven years on record. The last three years have been the hottest three years on record. Europe just saw its worst heat wave in recorded history that set all-time heat records in seven countries, killed more than 10,000 people, and caused the worst heat stress ever in half of the continent’s largest cities.
Much of the American west just saw its warmest winter on record, and as a country, the United States just saw its worst spring drought in recorded history. This summer alone we have seen multiple record heatwaves that have exposed hundreds of millions of Americans to dangerous levels of heat.
In both the United States and Canada, this heat and drought is driving longer and more intense wildfire seasons, including the more than 800 wildfires across Canada and northern Minnesota that are currently causing dangerous levels of air pollution for at least 115 million people across 20 states.
Let’s be clear: It is not normal for Detroit, Minneapolis, and Chicago to have some of the most dangerous air quality in the world.
NO, Mr. President: climate change is not a hoax. It is reality. And your ignorance is putting our kids and grandkids at risk in exchange for the short-term profit of your billionaire friends in Big Oil.
Our job: Reject President Trump’s lies and take on the crisis of climate change and the greed of the fossil fuel industry by transitioning our energy system to energy efficiency and sustainable forms of power. When we do that, we cut carbon emissions, reduce energy bills, and create millions of good union jobs.
And, by the way, we save the planet for our kids and grandchildren.
Proud that New York is one of 12 states suing to stop Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros.
This is not a merger that serves the public. It would hand one company nearly a third of the movies and cable channels Americans watch, raise prices for streaming and cable, endanger the livelihoods of thousands of New York artists and entertainment workers, and threaten to shutter theaters across our city.
New York's workers helped build this industry. They should not be sacrificed for the sake of further corporate consolidation.
