drumpf, his family and his administration don't give a sh't about animals, the environment or global climate change. Waiting anxiously for the Earth's liberation from these scumbags.

... because it didn’t happen twenty years ago when they were warned about it. Or some odd reasoning like that.

Bless the beasts and the children, they have no voice, they have no choice.

Those who don't know, possibly never will.

I vote for abandoning the entire US Executive Branch and Republican Party on the drying tundra. Sure they'd still say it was a liberal hoax, but at least they'd all be dead shortly afterward

If you're going to go that way, go with ice floes. Icebergs qualify for this purpose.

It's OK gents, here's a baggie of snowflakes I put in my freezer. Proves you are 100% correct. Have a nice cruise.

You don't really see this mentioned but the arctic isn't some human free zone. Rep. Lamar Smith had the gall to say it would create a whole new sector of an economy up there... first off we don't know how arable the land up in the arctic is, and it will destroy them. It is genocide. Plain and simple.

heard a journalist ask Trump to provide any evidence for that claim? Have you every heard a journalist ask for the Trump administration to explain why it refuses to accept the science behind climate change?

It was posted on the Science/Environment Group earlier today. This raw image is a primal last call for help.
In the name of greed we have reached this point of no return. And many fools scoff and jeer at climate change.
