Climate change: Report warns of growing impact on US life

Unchecked climate change will cost the US hundreds of billions of dollars and damage human health and quality of life, a US government report warns.

"Future risks from climate change depend... on decisions made today," the 4th National Climate Assessment says.

The report says climate change is "presenting growing challenges to human health and safety, quality of life, and the rate of economic growth".

The warning is at odds with the Trump administration's fossil fuels agenda.

Fake science.  Fake News.  Total bullshit.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Taken as gospel by way too many people for my comfort. But the collective cranks out millions more climate alarmists every year from our schools and universities. It won’t be long before they find climate deniers can be prosecuted under federal law.

I’m sure it’s in the constitution somewhere.

Sumthin' tells me that the folks who prepared this "report" are holdovers from the previous administration...
