    Shortly after being elected President, Donald Trump expressed that he wanted to find ways to remove the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement and put a stop-payment on a $500 million check Obama wrote for the UN Climate fund days before Trump's inauguration.

    President Trump has signed executive orders moving the approval process for the Keystone and Dakota Access pipelines forward.

    Eric Holthaus is a meteorologist who writes at Slate.com. Rolling Stone calls him the "Rebel Nerd of Meteorology":
    Last fall, meteorologist Eric Holthaus was waiting for a plane in San Francisco when he made a life-changing decision. He'd just finished pitching Silicon Valley on an app that would bring quality forecasts to underdeveloped countries suffering from climate change-related storms. Investors were less than enthused. "These are the people controlling the world's forward-thinking economy, and they don't get we have to take drastic action on climate change," he says. So Holthaus made a bold stance to forever reduce his own carbon emissions: The flight home to Wisconsin would be the last time he'd ever get on a plane.
