Pres. Trump said his administration will fight for a better environment in a speech Monday that did not mention the threat of climate change.

Trump campaigned on rolling back some of the stringent environmental proposals put forth under President Barack Obama, saying they went too far to single out industries like coal, but the administration claims the U.S. still has some of the strongest environmental protections.

The president did not mention climate change, other than to mention his decision to withdraw from the Paris Agreement, a landmark international accord to fight climate change signed by more than 190 counties in 2015. The president and administration officials have vocally cast doubt on research that shows significant risks to the U.S. from the warming climate, including more severe, extreme weather, coastal flooding and damage to the economy.

An EPA document on new air quality data, set to be released next week, shows that while air pollution has decreased dramatically in recent decades there have been more unhealthy air days and increased pollution from tiny particles of pollution in the last two years, partly due to smoke from wildfires.

"The basic message is we've made a lot of progress but the things the administration is doing will both make that progress less likely in the future and make it worse," he said. "With this administration, not only have they dropped the baton, it's like they're trying to run the relay race in the wrong direction," he said Monday.

Because President Trump knows well that environment challenge is real and we can and should do something about it while climate change is fake science, totally fabricated nonsense!

realDonaldTrump Hello? Your lowered EPA standards, and in some cases completely did away with them. Too late! TrumpIsNotMyType2020

“I am the best at the environment(Lie 10,001). No one knows the environment like me(10,002). I love the environment(10,003). Can someone out there create a lie counter that iterates live? I know that’s a full time job.

I mean I figured u love the whole find the immigrants game with this?

Didn't FOX News cut his speech short to state how Trump is lying & causing harm to the environment?

Good. What a worn out term.

Make sure to turn off your air conditioning since it was made environmental haters.

Probably because humans have extremely minimal impact on the climate. But narcastic libs and millennials want to believe we can control the climate. Sad.

The only thing defiling our planet is democrats and rhinos.

He is lying again. He has done nothing for the environment, nor will he ever do so.

He lies all the time!!!’

Bla bla bla bla, no action only shit talk!!!! 👎👎👎👎

You don't need climate change to do the right thing... It is Common sense.

washingtonpost nytimes NicolleDWallace maddow WSJ SpeakerPelosi Trump lying again. His administration has done absolutely nothing to help Climate Change. One of the first things he did was to leave the Paris Accord Treaty. Everyone be aware of what he is doing.

Fake

nytimes SpeakerPelosi NicolleDWallace maddow His lies just roll off of his tongue. He says them like his telling the truth. There you have it a Narcissistic Pathological Lier. He has taken his play book from Hitler and Goebbels. It is important for everyone to be educated

You can't let anyone -- particularly leader - blather on and on, in direct contradiction to facts. How many federal acres open to mining? How many endangered species abandoned? How much environomental destruction due to anachronistic devotion to coal?

We only have 12 years left , enjoy!!!

Trump also announced a partnership with long-time women's rights proponent Jeffrey Epstein to form an alliance against sexual assault.

The Climate will change in America in a couple of Months! Happy Fall Everyone!

Trump lies about the environment now like he’s been lying about health care.

...and?

As we know realDonaldTrump only reads what’s on the TelePrompTerhe doesn’t know what he’s saying. So it’s likely just a speech nothing more. In a week he’ll say the TelePrompTer was broken or i didn’t say that

What does know about God ? He doesn’t go to church and you know that old saying Don’t use God’s name in vain !

What a joke come on this guy lies a lot better about a lot less important stuff that at least he could hug a globe or something to show how much he really cares about lying about global warming.

OUIoui it forces us we the people develop carbon and Chemical plums floating around can be extracted so not killing everything around Jobs Pattens cleaner AIR 100% USA 🇺🇸 VOTE TRUMP

Trump is so full of shit.

Lmao. Didn’t he just let all the scientists go !!! So full a lies and crap

Climate change is a hoax to let Marxists control the world's energy and control the population. MAGA2020 KAG2020 climatechangehoax DemocratsHateAmerica

I'd like to know HOW we're going to have a better environment, when HIS EPA is rolling back rules and protections?! How exactly does THAT work.

People that don’t believe in climate change don’t want to believe in climate change. They are motivated by short-sighted greed at the expense of the earth.

But democrats do not care about the environment. They say they do. They push agendas which sound nice but in reality do nothing but waste or take money. It’s all a scam for them.

Why is the realDonaldTrump administration fighting for a better environment if they believe climate change is fake news? I think donnie got some splaining to do.

Climate change is a scam.

This man totally reminds me of the cheating husband. Wife catches him red handed. He says “wasn’t me”. There’s always someone who wants to believe. God help them. He is doing all he can to cause damage that may not be able to be reversed. I’d love to see his stock portfolio

What does that mean?

There is no threat- so no need to waste his breath

Can anyone tell me when the climate hasn't been changing?

he meant he has removed so many environmental restrictions that almost any business can dump and burn at leisure making for a more profitable environment for doing business.

Uh no...he will fight to destroy our environment. Get it straight.

I thought you already had the cleanest air and water on the planet.

That's because President Trump and his supporters aren't brainwashed and believe in fallacies!!!

Trump: Many people have said gravity is a climate change hoax and is the number one cause of cancer.

Because climate change is a hoax.

That doesn't work.

Say anything and do anything to please a base of uneducated trumpies.

Meanwhile, everyone at FakeNews ABC has a plastic water bottle in their hand.

A large portion of trumps base doesn’t agree with climate change and if he wants to motivate them towards better environmental policy then it sounds like a smart move to omit the term where possible.

Sureeeee, ha ha ha.

Then why is he rolling back environmental protection laws? Back and forth 🏓🏓

EPA.& excessive fake regulations need be wiped clean for the good of the economic engine of this country.

LAUGHABLE!

'Eloquent words are unfit for a fool; how much worse are lying lips to a ruler!' Wonder if he knows who said that. Try not talking and instead doing something positive for the environment, POTUS. You've done more than enough damage.

It's sign orange face of dun cause heat wave

Trump is full of balloney!

Man made climate change is a Hoax perpetrated by the Elites to tax more and to gain more power! Don’t ever forget it!

He can say that we all need to be consious of our environmental impact which is true.. but the left wont be happy until they make a business out of it (taxing citizens)

lordy there are tapes at jeffrey's

Was Trump’s speech given in Flint, Michigan?

If any scientist or professor disagrees that climate change is real, silence them and get them fired. That way we can say ALL scientists agree with our bs cause.

Hmmmmmm 🤔 From 2007 to 2009, gas emissions soared down by a lot, then declined overall during Obama era. With Trump, it's pretty much a standstill overall, partly thanks to that 3,4% increase last year. However, if it ain't going down, we aren't happy.

And nor should it talk about climate change. It’s a new field of study. You Democrats think you know science? You think girls can have penises. We have a tiny glimpse of what takes millennia to occur. You could make no substantive claims by examining the weather for 100 years.

“We only have one planet” as he systematically destroys all the protections of said planet. hypocrite realDonaldTrump

Awful individual

He has no idea what he’s talking about. 🤬

realDonaldTrump Another bunch of hateful people, never giving the benefit of a doubt. Always shaming and wishing you worst of you Mr. President. Perhaps they we find love and change their ways. TrumpForKing KAGA StopOpenBorders DrainTheSwamp BuildThatWall JustDoIt

is supporting the coal industry better? Trump has already abandoned a better environment, we need a new POTUS at this point.

His actions prove he’s a bigger liar then we know him to be

Good! Climate change is a hoax!

😢😤😭🤤🤤🤤

He trips over his own tongue!

He’s full of crap on this ! Almost to 11000 lies ! Winning TrumpCrimeFamilyForPrison

Better question is why did people listen to the media. 🤦🏽‍♀️😂

What about the sign Trump was holding Trump digs coal only one of the biggest pollutants out there

Of course not...he meant a better environment for business to trade profits for clean air and water.

Why are we so fucked?

The earths climate has been changing for a few billion years. And no matter what nonsense is spewed...we have very little control over that.

The gaslighting is off the chart here. Who is still buying this garbage? I have huge concerns about their decency and mental health.

Trump shares fake Reagan quote praising himPresident Trump retweeted a photo of himself shaking hands with Ronald Reagan with a fake quote attributed to Reagan that read, 'I felt like I was the one shaking hands with a president.' The account that originally posted the meme was later suspended. That’s lol funny and horribly sad all at once. I feel like Reagan would view Trump much like George Bush does. What will it take for the Dems to do their job and impeach Trump? Unfortunately, the VP and the Cabinet are too self-serving to do their jobs and remove Trump, but the Dems?
