As of November 8th, 2016 Donald Trump won the presidential election for the United States of America. As a nation, we are quite divided, many environmentalist are extremely devistated with the results from the election. The issue with trump being president is that the man does not even believe in global warming. This is a huge issue for the environment, and is going to cause a huge problem when he starts electing people who are environmentally uneducated into to powerful positions to make decisons for the environment.
Trumps presidency is going to hurt the environment in many ways. He wants to bring back coal jobs to the united states, which will increase the burning of fossil fuels, which increases global warming. In addition to this he is constantly bashing the subject of renewable energy. This is an example of the tradgedy of the commons, trump is going to use up all of our reasouces and we will be left with nothing. To have a president who values money over preservation and reffers climate change and environmental issues as a joke, is a poor reflection on the great America. https://thinkprogress.org/the-environmental-implications-of-a-trump-presidency-fc298e5fd83c#.6kfkeywsn
