This article discusses climate change and its impact. The climate is being disrupted by natural internal processed, external forcings, and human activity and the impacts have been more negative than positive. Scientists have noticed a rapid increase in the global average air and ocean temperatures, the natural greenhouse effect (necessary for life because it helps keep Earth warm enough to be habitable) is being supplemented …show more content…
It discusses Trump's executive order for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reconsider the Clean Power Plan and how he also wants to deregulate the fossil fuel industry to increase federal, state, and local tax revenues. The Trump Administration is known for claiming global warming/climate change is a hoax and has fired many members of an EPA science advisory board that have said otherwise, replacing with representatives of the industry. While the promise of more money is great, our planet is being mistreated and one day will be an uninhabitable place. Lastly, Trump's EPA administrator, Scott Pruitt, denied that carbon emissions can't be pointed at as a cause of climate change. He also said that we can't tell how much human activity has caused or impacted the rate of climate change and we probably aren't the primary …show more content…

This article is about S. Fred Singer, who is a leading skeptic of anthropocentric global warming and the founder of the Science and Environmental Policy Project, which is an organization that challenged the findings of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Singer believes that global warming is just another scientific controversy and he hopes that the public will realize it as well. He also believes that if his findings are proven to be right, then the public policies being discussed are "pointless, hugely expensive, and wasteful of resources that could be better applied to real societal problems". He also believes that while global warming does exist, human contributions are minimal, and we would even benefit from temperatures rising. Singer believes science isn't settled and will continue his research to disprove that climate change is
