It Was 65 Degrees In Antarctica This Week
Conservatives have explained away all of Trumps environmental roll backs
His behavior in office all based on people who's reasoning is so far outside the consensus ,its comical Alan Dershowitz is the latest in this trend ( not on climate yet anyway)
The Trump cabinet contains more public climate science deniers than any administration in modern history.
But 65 in Antarctic no issue
1936–1989: Wordie Ice Shelf significantly reduced in size.
1995: Ice in the Prince Gustav Channel disintegrated.
Parts of the Larsen Ice Shelf broke up in recent decades.
1995: The Larsen A ice shelf disintegrated in January 1995.
2001: 3,250 square kilometres (1,250 square miles) of the Larsen B ice shelf disintegrated in February 2001. It had been gradually retreating before the breakup event.
2015: A study concluded that the remaining Larsen B ice-shelf will disintegrate by the end of the decade, based on observations of faster flow and rapid thinning of glaciers in the area.[24]

The Environmental Protection Agency is about to make it a lot harder to use legitimate scientific and medical studies in crafting environmental policy. According to a report published Monday by the New York Times, the agency is expanding its proposed "Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science" rule in a way that could completely dismantle how the agency uses scientific studies. It's the latest salvo in the agency's war on the exact thing it's supposed to protect — the environment.
I guess if you don’t believe the science, it makes sense you would direct the EPA to take steps to ignore it. Clean water and air, who needs it when your 401K is doing good. Climate change is going to be a pay me now or pay me in a big way in the future kind of thing, this administration would rather kick that can down the road, hoping a future administration will be forced to pay the tab.

Climate change: Loss of bumblebees driven by 'climate chaos'
A new analysis shows the likelihood of a bee being found in any given place in Europe and North America has declined by a third since the 1970s.
Bumblebees are key pollinators Much bigger impact than honey bees
