*Scientists Are Planning the Next Big Washington March
<http://www.climatecentral.org/news/scientists-march-washington-dc-21111>*
Climate Central-6 hours ago
Last weekend, a massive milieu of women in pink hats descended on
Washington, D.C. for the Women's March. The next big protest being
planned for the nation's capital.......The march would be the latest
in a string of actions taken by scientists following Donald Trump’s
election and his inauguration as president. His administration has
been widely viewed as hostile to science — from the transition
period through hearings for his cabinet nominees through silencing
key federal science agencies and freezing grants.

Today, the Earth got a little hotter, and a little more crowded.
And the chances of Donald Trump’s family and fortune surviving
climate change are small, dwindling daily and irreversibly.

Scientific American-10 hours ago
Communications staff were told to remove the agency's webpage
on/climate//change/, according to two unnamed EPA staff members. The
move adds to concerns
"Scientific information about climate change is a public good.
Taxpayers have a right to the results of research and studies they
are paying for. The idea that Americans could be cut off from access
to basic information about what is happening to their environment
and in their communities is dangerous and appalling," said a former
EPA official in response to the news reports.
Meanwhile, EPA's staff has already been told not to issue external
press releases or post on social media and agency blogs
(Climatewire, Jan. 24, 2017).

**January 26, 2011: Prof. Robert Brulle of Drexel University rips
President Obama for avoiding any specific mention of climate change
in his 2011 State of the Union Address, noting:
"What I see going on here is that Obama is following the rhetorical
advice of David Axelrod and groups like ecoAmerica, who argue that
the American public is unwilling to deal with climate change.
"So rather than make the case for climate change and the necessity
of action, this approach focuses on 'clean' energy and research and
development as a way to make a transition to a different energy mix.
This is considered the popular, no pain, 'energy quest' approach
that relies on a mystical belief in R&D to address climate change.
The Obama administration appears to have bought this approach
completely as the politically popular way to address this issue. In
my opinion, this approach has several major drawbacks, and
effectively locks in massive and potentially catastrophic global
climate change."

January 26, 2013: MSNBC's Chris Hayes praises President Obama's vow
to combat climate change in his State of the Union address, and
notes that Obama can take action to cut carbon emissions despite the
House of Representatives' "depraved kind of denialism" on climate.
