Donald Trump's administration is falsely claiming that greenhouse gases are not a threat to public health — breaking the law to once again grovel to the oil industry.
California will fight this lawless action in court.

ALT Quote from California Governor Gavin Newsom and Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers: “This action is unlawful, ignores basic science, and denies reality. We know greenhouse gases cause climate change and endanger our communities and our health — and we will not stop fighting to protect the American people from pollution.”

“What he [Trump] is doing is putting at risk millions of lives….This is also going to be amazingly expensive for communities all across the U.S. who now don’t just have to worry about their healthcare but have to worry about what this president may do next.” @Gina_McCarthy

🚨BREAKING: C40 Cities reacts to the disappointing draft outcome of #COP30
“The draft texts we have seen this morning in Belém suggest several parties are trying to leave the global mutirão in ashes.
"We are not seeing enough ambition on fossil fuels, on a just transition, or on multilevel dialogue and action - areas that cities are leading on and are ready to go further and faster.
"There is an open goal for implementation on core issues with subnational partners - and it is about to be missed.
“Even now, we can still correct this by realising Brazil’s vision of moving COP from negotiation to implementation. That means bringing subnationals - the climate doers - into the heart of a more ambitious outcome text.”
- Mark Watts, Executive Director of C40 Cities, on the latest draft of the Belém Political Package
