New U.S. Climate Assessment Forecasts Dire Effects On Economy, Health
The Trump administration released a major climate assessment on Black Friday, the culmination of years of research by the country’s top climate scientists. It’s well over 1,000 pages and touches on a daunting range of topics.
President Trump said Monday that he’s read parts of it. “It’s fine,” he told reporters at the White House, although he said he doesn’t believe the report’s assessment that climate change will cause devastating economic impacts for the U.S.
The report is required by Congress every four years, and is issued by 13 federal agencies and the U.S. Global Change Research Program. This one marks the most detailed and blunt assessment yet of the dangers of unchecked global warming.
