The employees were notified by EPA officials on Tuesday that the administration had instructed EPA's communications team to remove the website's climate change page, which contains links to scientific global warming research, as well as detailed data on emissions.

Trump is a termite. I'm sorry, I just am a very unhappy person right now because of that Orange Thing. He is trying to undo any progress we have made in the last 40 years, and we really haven't made much apparently. Is Iceland accepting refugees?

Apparently in Trumps 'merica such things don't matter...sure the EPA needed improvement, but just getting rid of it or any environment oversight certainly seems like a bad idea.
