President Donald Trump pushed back on reporters who confronted him with a government report on global warming, saying he knew of “scientists that very much dispute it.”
“Well, I think we’ve contributed, we certainly contribute, I mean, there’s certain pollutants that go up and there’s certain things that happen,” Trump said in an interview with Axios reporters that aired on HBO Sunday night.
Axios reporters thought bringing a copy of the most recent National Climate Assessment (NCA) would make it harder for Trump to question its findings. It didn’t work.

CO2 is not a dangerous pollutant.
The opposite is true.
It is essential for life.
The US has exceeded its goals for reducing CO2,the only country that has.
See Uh Oh 2 is much loved by the plants in my yard. We must stop reducing it.
It seems every 6 months or so, the left creates some new “media outlet”, that they then pretend does real news. Axios is the latest (now someone will tell me Axios has been around for years....)
Says Trump may be a “lukewarmist”, which I might agree with. Yes, CO2 is a greenhouse gas, and yes, we’ve put more of it in the atmosphere. But does it matter? So far, the benefits of our industrial activities have far outweighed any causes that can be directly attributed to it, and I’m not convinced that’s likely to change in the foreseeable future.
These reporters need to go to China and India and ask what they are doing.
Yeah, and more than 1,600 ‘scientists’ signed a letter denouncing President Trump administration’s plan to narrow the definition of gender to be strictly biological.
Proving that ‘science’ is more about politics today than science.
Axioms is some former Politico staffers, funded by Katzenberger, Schwartz, and Paul Allen. Closely associated with MSNBC and NBC.
So yes, suspect everything they say.
The role of mankind in climate change is far from settled science.
The USA started out on an even keel by launching satellites that would collect the data needed to understand climate change. Then politics entered, with too much money being spent to prove that mankind is no good. It takes time and money to measure and understand the parameters affecting climate change.
It turns out that Democrats no longer need data and information to make scientific decisions about climate, about gender, and about the serious negative effects of dope. It is easier and cheaper to declare their version of science and then destroy anyone who disagrees. Will that work?

They never include the amount of CO2 the plants soak up ,I wonder why ,LOL
CO2 does not contribute to anything other than plant life.
When Global Temps go up, the level of CO2 follows years behind.
This is the dam bald face lie those like the Carnival Barker Gore have pushed. They claimed that CO2 rise resulted in the rise of Temps. Its the other way around. When temps go up (the result of solar activity/inactivity) CO2 rises afterwards.
I am waiting for these assholes to propose legislation against volcanic activity, wildfires etc.
According to Wikipedia, “Axios (stylized as AXIOS) is an American news and information website founded in 2016 by Politico co-founder Jim VandeHei, Politico’s former chief White House correspondent, Mike Allen, and former Politico chief revenue officer, Roy Schwartz. “
Question: what are you made of???
Answer: Carbon dioxide.
ALL living thing are made from CO2.
The process is photosynthesis it causes airborne CO2 to react
H2O in the atmosphere to create living matter and in the process return the excess oxygen to the atmosphere. It is essence of all life.
Plants and man have worked out a deal.They'll provide us with O2 if we give them CO2...a true win/win.
Ever hear of Coca-Cola ?
Yeah. Why aren’t “they” whining about those bubbles?
Seems strange the Gaia Worshippers are obsessing over the US when the US has been reducing its carbon emissions. Why not ask France and Germany and all those Europeans why their emissions are increasing when they agreed to decrease emissions?
Better still, China is the biggest carbon emitter in the world and India is top 5 and growing fast. Why not whine to them about their carbon emissions?
What’s that? They’re not stupid enough to hand over their money? Oh.
Hey, I’ve got a good idea. Let’s let the Leftists take an active role in helping the planet.
Why don’t they go out in the cattle fields and collect the buffalo chips on the ground and transport them to a system at the farm that collects methane.
This work will be very therapeutic for Lefties. It’s good exercise, and they can spend less time worrying and they will be too tired to hate Trump 24/7.
Just a suggestion :- )
