Trump's Denial of Climate Change Threatens National Security
Since at least 2004, the Pentagon has been warning U.S. presidents that Climate Change threatens U.S. national security and "will destroy us". Denial of this existential threat, as President-elect Donald J. Trump and his nominees for important administration posts have professed, flies in the face of the assessments made by the Pentagon and Department of Defense and constitutes a refusal to protect the security of the United States, demonstrating that Donald J.Trump and his nominees threaten the security of the United States and are, therefore, unfit to govern the U.S.

Why is this important?
We are ALL threatened by Donald Trump's refusal to accept the reality of climate change. His nominees, all of whom deny climate change, will implement policies which will cause irreparable harm to the United States and the rest of the planet.
