Donald Trump is now the president of the United States of America and needless to say, many US citizens and immigrants alike are in an outrage. There are many reasons to fear a Trump presidency in one of the most powerful nations on earth, one of which is what it would mean for the planet.

Donald Trump has not been quiet about his disbelief in one of the earth's biggest united concerns - global warming. It is true that there are many reasons to dislike Trump. He is a homophobe, a sexist, and a racist.

All of which are understandable reasons to dislike the new president, however, all of these are aspects that divide humanity. Everyone on earth has one common problem, Global Warming, and Trump is one of those people who strongly believe that global warming is a myth.

Donald Trump has used the word "hoax" to describe climate change. Three times in a South Carolina rally back in 2015. Moreover, he has also called climate change "bullshit" and " nonsense" and the last straw was when he told CNN directly "I don't believe in climate change."

America is, in fact, a global leader, and having a man in power who doesn't believe in this planetary concern is frightening. He even pledged to dismantle the Environmental Protection Agency. He also promised to cancel the landmark Paris Agreement.

In his mind, Global Warming is a myth, and he plans to focus on new infrastructure for the country. To make this possible, Trump will use the funds he will "save" after canceling "wasteful climate change spending"

I will also cancel all wasteful climate change spending from Obama-Clinton, including all global warming payments to the United Nations. These steps will save $100 billion over 8 years, and this money will be used to help rebuild the vital infrastructure, including water systems, in America's inner cities.

Frightening as it may be, people can only hope that everything Trump has said about his plans regarding climate change would turn out to be all bark no bite.
