As William Saletan notes, Climate Change is already costing us many, many lives and many, many dollars. And what's our government going to do to stop it from getting a lot worse? Well, as long as Donald Trump has anything to say about it, nothing.
Dick Cheney used to say that if there's even a 1% chance that a rumored terrorist threat is true, we have to respond as if it's a certainty. Trump's position is that if he's decided the scientists are all wrong and he's right, he's right.
