| [FoxNews] Trump signed executive orders to end EV mandates, climate standards The global climate movement is already feeling the sting of the "Trump effect" after green energy policies were a target of President Donald Trump's first executive orders, according to energy experts who reacted to the president's first week in office. Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States Monday, signing numerous executive orders aimed at unraveling former President Joe Biden's climate agenda. "President Trump has not wasted any time to undo Biden’s many climate policies designed to make energy more expensive and less affordable. America and the world can look forward to a brighter future because of the actions that President Trump has started on his first day in office," Myron Ebell, chairman of the American Lands Council, said in a statement. But Ebell added that "it’s going to be a long, hard fight because of ferocious opposition" from climate groups. This week, Trump signed an executive order to ax the U.S. climate standards, which aimed to reduce emissions 61-66% by 2035. Additionally, the president ended the electric vehicle (EV) mandate and withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement, a legally binding treaty among more than 190 parties committed to international cooperation on climate change. "President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Accords is a victory for American workers and families, rejecting policies that prioritize the Chinese Communist Party’s interests over our own," said Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute and a former Texas state representative. Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress plan on going even deeper on reversing green energy policies enacted over the past four years. Republicans in the House have already introduced legislation to block Biden's climate standards on household appliances |

| #4 Global Warming/Climate Change is the biggest science scam since the Piltdown Man. Even now, people of the future are laughing at us, the same way we snicker at that Lysenko business and marvel about how things can go so wrong. The Science is never settled. Feel free to mock anyone telling you otherwise. Especially if it is your government. They are trying to sell you something. |

| #1 Proof a Pile of lies eventually reaches it limits, and collapses in on itself. But a lot and doomsayers made names for themselves and $$ MILLION in the process. What if the Government sued Gore and others to recover the Taxpayer $$$Billions spent trying to "Save the Planet" started by this scam. |
