ONE OF THE PRIMARY ISSUES THAT PEOPLE WERE CONCERNED ABOUT
IF DONALD TRUMP GOT ELECTED WAS CLIMATE CHANGE, AND WHETHER WE
WOULD PULL OUT OF THE PARIS CLIMATE DEAL.
ALMOST EVERY
COUNTRY IN THE WORLD HAS SIGNED THIS, I'LL TELL YOU THE TWO
OTHERS WHO HAVE NOT, AND PRESIDENT OBAMA DIDN'T GO TO THE
SENATE FOR RATIFICATION, HE SAID THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH CAN HANDLE
IT, AND THEY DID, AND WE WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN MAKING THIS DEAL
HAPPEN SO WE WOULDN'T MELT THE PLANET.
ALL SHOW YOU SOME
NUMBERS ON HOW BAD IT IS IN A LITTLE BIT.
THE PROBLEM WITH
THAT STRATEGY WAS IF A REPUBLICAN WON HE COULD CIVILLY
BACKOUT AS PRESIDENT, AND IT LOOKS LIKE THAT IS THE DIRECTION
DONALD TRUMP IS HEADING.
HE TWEETED TODAY --
AND THEN IN BOLD BECAUSE HE'S A CHILD, MAKE AMERICA GREAT
AGAIN!
THAT IS AN INDICATION THAT HE WILL BE PULLING OUT.
THERE WAS A BATTLE BETWEEN THE -- I DON'T WANT TO SAY MODERATE
FORCES, THERE ARE NO MODERATE FORCES IN THE WHITE HOUSE -- BUT
THE SLIGHTLY NON-INSANE FORCES OF IVANKA TRUMP, JARED GOVERNOR,
THE GOLDMAN SACHS GUYS, AGAINST THE NATIONALISTS.
THE STEVE
BANNONS, ETC., WHO SAID WE TOLD EVERYONE WE WILL BURN THE PLACE
DOWN, NOW LET'S LITERALLY DO IT, YOU CAN'T BACK OUT OF THIS
CAMPAIGN PROMISE, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE WILL GO IN THE STEVE
BANNON DIRECTION.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES --
THAT'S IT.
IF THEY MAKE AN EXECUTIVE DECISION IT'S OVER,
THEY WON'T BE PARTICIPATING.
YOU THINK TRUMP WILL BE LIKE, OH, WE
SAID WE WOULD BE IN THROUGH 2019 SO LET'S SPEND A LOT OF MONEY
GOING IN THAT DIRECTION?
NO, HE WILL SAY WE ARE DONE WITH IT, NO ENFORCEMENT, AND
POWER EVERYTHING DOWN.
IN FACT --
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE ACTING
OUTRAGED AND SURPRISED TODAY,
BUT COME ON, OF COURSE YOU SHOULDN'T BE SURPRISED.
THEY
ALREADY STOPPED THE CLEAN POWER PLAN, AND WITHOUT IT THERE IS NO
WAY WE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PARIS
ACCORDS.
SO IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF OFFICIALLY SAYING IT.
SECOND
OF ALL, GEE, I WONDER WHAT DIRECTION HE WOULD GO WHEN HE
TOOK THE GUY WHO IS SUING THE EPA TO MAKE SURE THEY COULD NOT
BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THIS ACCORD AND MADE HIM HEAD OF THE
EPA.
THIS ISN'T COMPLICATED, I KNOW HEALTHCARE IS, AND NORTH
KOREA IS, NOBODY KNEW THAT, BUT THIS ONE ISN'T, OF COURSE HE
WOULD BACKOUT.
THESE ARE THE CONSEQUENCES FOR VOTING FOR
DONALD TRUMP, WHAT DID YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN?
THE HUFFINGTON
POST CONTINUES TO EXPLAIN --
EVEN THE OIL COMPANIES ARE LIKE, DUDE, WE WANT TO MAKE A
TON OF MONEY AND I'M GLAD YOU PUT SCOTT PRUITT IN THERE AND
YOU ARE DOING DEREGULATION SO WE CAN MAKE MORE MONEY, BUT YOU
SHOULD REALLY FOLLOW THIS PLAN BECAUSE WE HAVE RESEARCHED
SHOWING THE PLANET IS IN FACT HEATING UP, AND THAT IS IN FACT
GOING TO CAUSE HORRIFIC WEATHER PATTERNS AND CLIMATE CHANGE,
WHICH IS GOING TO HURT ALL OF US.
SO EVEN THE OIL COMPANIES
ARE LIKE, YEAH, BUT WE REALLY SHOULDN'T DO THIS, DONALD.
THIS
IS A REALLY BAD IDEA.
THE ONE GUY INSIDE THE ADMINISTRATION WE
KNOW FOR SURE IS AGAINST PULLING OUT OF THE PARIS DEAL -- ARE YOU
SITTING?
REX TILLERSON, FORMER CEO OF EXXON MOBIL.
BECAUSE
THOSE GUYS DID RESEARCH ON IT, THEY KNOW THEIR INTERNAL
RESEARCH, THEY DON'T SHARE WITH THE PUBLIC, BUT HE'S SEEN THE
RESEARCH AND HE'S LIKE, I DO HAVE KIDS AND GRANDKIDS, DONALD,
YOU SHOULD NOT PULL OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, CLIMATE CHANGE IS
KIND OF REAL.
BUT DONALD IS LIKE STEVE BANNON TOLD ME IT'S NOT
REAL SO WE ARE OUT.
THAT WAS MY CAMPAIGN PROMISE.
NOW --
IT'S SUPER CLEAR, HE WON'T DO THAT AT ALL.
YOU THINK HE'S
GOING TO FOLLOW THE LAW?
OH NO, THERE WAS A SUPREME COURT
DECISION IN 2007, SO SCOTT PRUITT, THE ONE DESTROYING ALL
THE REGULATIONS, MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THE REGULATIONS.
NO, IT
WILL BE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO CHECK, THEY WON'T ENFORCE IT AT
ALL.
NOW ABOUT THE RAMIFICATIONS --
CONGRATULATIONS, AMERICA, YOU ARE NOW
A ROGUE COUNTRY.
EVEN
SYRIA REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT IT, THEY JUST PROBABLY COULDN'T COME
TO AN AGREEMENT.
ASSAD AND ISIS ARE LIKE, CLIMATE CHANGE IS
REALLY BAD -- LET'S KEEP FIGHTING AND THEN WE WILL FIGURE
OUT IF WE SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE.
CONGRATULATIONS AMERICA, WE ARE IN THE CAMP WITH SYRIA AND
NICARAGUA.
HOW DOES THE ADMINISTRATION AND THEIR ALLIES
RESPOND?
THIS IS MY FAVORITE QUOTE, TRUMP'S EPA TRANSITION
TEAM LEADER, MYRON EBELL, SAID "WHO CARES?"
THAT'S
SOPHISTICATED.
WE ARE NOW A ROGUE NATION, TEMPERATURES ARE
GOING UP DRAMATICALLY, WORSE THAN SCIENTISTS EXPECTED BECAUSE
THEY ARE GENERALLY CONSERVATIVE, NOT POLITICALLY BUT IN THEIR
NATURE AND IN THE REPORTING OF THEIR FACTS, IT IS WORSE THAN WE
SUSPECTED -- WHO CARES?
IT TURNS OUT THERE IS AN ANSWER
TO THAT
QUESTION, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE CARE.
ARE YOU READY FOR THIS
POLLING --
THAT ISN'T FROM YEARS AGO, THAT'S EARLIER THIS MONTH.
61 TO
17, AND THE GENIUS POLITICAL STRATEGISTS, BANNON AND TRUMP,
DECIDED TO GO THAT WAY.
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE VOTED FOR HIM.
WHAT DID YOU THINK, HE WAS JOKING?
WE TOLD YOU IT WOULD BE
DEVASTATING FOR CLIMATE CHANGE IF TRUMP GOT ELECTED BUT PEOPLE
DIDN'T TAKE US SERIOUSLY.
NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ECONOMIC
SITUATION --
THE REALITY IS, WE ARE SCREWED.
WE ARE SCREWED
ECONOMICALLY, WE ARE SCREWED IN TERMS OF THE EFFECTS ON THE
PLANET, AND OF COURSE TRUMP AND HIS NATIONALIST CADRE IN THE
WHITE HOUSE DON'T CARE, LITERALLY.
THEY SAY, WHO CARES?
WHO CARES ABOUT THE PLANET, OUR HEALTH, OUR WELL-BEING?
THESE
ARE DANGEROUS TIMES.
IN FACT, LET ME SKIP AHEAD AND SHOW YOU
SOME OF THE GRAPHS.
LET ME GO TO GRAPHICGRAPH LET ME GO TO
GRAPHIC 62, THIS IS THE AVERAGE TEMPERATURE, YOU CAN SEE FROM
1980 TO 2015 HAS HAPPENED, IF YOU CAN'T TELL THAT THAT'S GOING
UP SIGNIFICANTLY, ONCE AGAIN YOU HAVE ISSUES WITH NUMBERS AND
YOUR EYES.
WHERE IS THE WARMING?
IT'S RIGHT THERE, KNUCKLEHEAD.
AVERAGE TEMPERATURE IN FEBRUARY WAS 1.35 DEGREES CELSIUS ABOVE
THE NORM FOR 1951-1980, AND THESE FLUCTUATIONS MAKE A HUGE
DIFFERENCE.
SHOW YOU ANOTHER ONE HERE, AVERAGE MONTHLY ARCTIC SEA
ICE EXTENT -- THAT CHART IS GOING WAY DOWN.
AND THERE IS ONE
OTHER DEVASTATING CONSEQUENCE OF THAT, THAT IS IF THE ICE MELTS
IN THE ARCTIC AND THE POLES, THAN METHANE THAT'S TRAPPED IN
THE ICE GETS RELEASED, AND METHANE IS EVEN WORSE THAN
CARBON.
SO ONCE THE METHANE GETS RELEASED, WE CAN'T PUT IT BACK
IN THE ICE.
YOU LITERALLY CANNOT PUT THAT GENIE BACK IN THE
BOTTLE.
WE TOLD YOU THAT ELECTING DONALD TRUMP WAS NOT A
SHORT-TERM PROBLEM, IT COULD HAVE DEVASTATING LONG-TERM
CONSEQUENCES.
AND HERE WE ARE.
