In its latest denial of climate science, the Trump administration said that there is \u201cnot a climate crisis\u201d in *an environmental analysis* of its sale of public lands to oil companies. The notice of this analysis came on the same day the United Nations released a report on the staggering effects climate change is already having on our planet.<\/p>\n

YESTERDAY:Trump\u2019s Interior Department published a notice that said there is \u201cnot a climate crisis\u201d to defend its sellout of public lands to oil companies.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg<\/a>: \u201c\u2018There is not a climate crisis,\u2019 the Interior Department\u2019s Bureau of Land Management asserted in its environmental analysis of the coming sale of drilling rights in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge\u2019s Coastal Plain released earlier this month.\u201d<\/p>\n

The warming climate is killing coral reefs, supercharging monster storms, and fueling deadly marine heat waves and record losses of sea ice. And Wednesday\u2019s report on the world\u2019s oceans, glaciers, polar regions and ice sheets finds that such effects foreshadow a more catastrophic future as long as greenhouse gas emissions remain unchecked.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
