I
absolutely agree with what my classmate said in the blog entry Drilling to Our Doom. The National Park Services and such natural reserves have done the
country and the world a big favor by limiting the urbanization and destruction
of nature. With President Trump working diligently toward developing American economy,
and anti-terrorism, he has forgotten some of the world's other troubles. One of
the largest issues we have come to recognize and President Trump’s ignoring is
global warming or rather, climate change.
I
voice out the same question my friend has pointed out in the blog, “If the
Republican party is so family oriented then why don’t they stop for a second to
think about what kind of world their children and grandchildren will be living
in?” Our newest president is putting in every effort, from removing
restrictions on fossil fuel productions to threatening to pull out of the Paris
Agreement, to nullify all that has been done till now to stop or at least slow
down our planet’s destruction. And while he may not be even a bit concerned, we
who recognize and believe in planet Earth’s vulnerability are. President Trump’s
plans and actions are taking us backwards to the era where the United States’
air was filled with sooty and extremely harmful chemicals.
The climate change nonbelievers who lead our country at the
moment really are drilling a path that will lead us straight to our doom. We
must protest their actions, and we must do so right now.
