Current Events:
Another One of Trump’s Stupid Executive Orders
In
2014, President Obama, and the president of China signed a contract to cut down
on emissions to prevent pollution. The
United States is one of the leading countries in producing pollution, so Obama
created the Clean Power Plan to do away with factories that are generated by
coal, and replace that energy with something more green, such as wind powered
and solar energy. The United States is supposed to cut down emissions by 26% by
2025, keep in mind that this is an international agreement with many countries
involved, but Donald Trump just signed
an order to do away with and rewrite Obama’s Clean Power Plan, and he plans to
bring back the coal mining business. He has also stated that he does not plan
on reaching the commitment that Obama promised to reach. Trump made it clear
that America’s leadership in this plan to save the environment would take a
backseat to his commitment to creating more jobs. In the next couple of years,
if the planet warms any more than 3.6 degrees, then our future generations will
have to suffer through drought, rising sea waters, flooding, and food shortage.
If
Donald Trump wanted to create more jobs then, why doesn’t he invest that time
and money into something other than coal mining. Who would want to be a coal
miner? It is dangerous, unhealthy for the workers, and it is not healthy for
the environment. People that don’t listen to science and facts about the Earth
dying are stupid, and I personally believe that this order to do away with the
Clean Power Plan is very inconsiderate. The majority of Americans agree that pollution
should be decreased, so Donald Trump should listen to the citizens of the
country he is running.

I agree with what you're saying. Maybe Trump should focus more on solar energy.
