Responsible scientists & Trump

En cuanto al cambio climático, Trump ha hecho una serie de promesas, entre ellas, no ratificar el acuerdo de París.
Esperemos que las iniciativas, como la de los 375 científicos americanos (entre ellos 30 premios Nobel), atacando de frente a Trump en relación al cambio climático, puedan hacer la presión suficiente para ir desmontando este tipo de políticas que no van a beneficiar a nuestro planeta.
En su carta, los científicos explican que:

The political system also has tipping points. Thus it is of great concern that the Republican nominee for President has advocated U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Accord. A “Parexit” would send a clear signal to the rest of the world: "The United States does not care about the global problem of human-caused climate change. You are on your own." Such a decision would make it far more difficult to develop effective global strategies for mitigating and adapting to climate change. The consequences of opting out of the global community would be severe and long-lasting – for our planet’s climate and for the international credibility of the United States.
