    Trump claims U.S. has ‘record clean’ air. A new report says otherwise.

    LoL more trump fake news...…..

    See more at the link https://thinkprogress.org/trump-air-...-b346f070f8bd/


    Excerpt:

    People across the United States are breathing increasingly polluted air, according to the American Lung Association’s annual State of the Air report. Climate change is a major contributor to worsening air quality, and the Trump administration’s ongoing efforts to roll back environmental protections could make it even worse.

    The American Lung Association has been tracking air quality for two decades, and the air pollution increase found in this year’s report is worse than the past two reports, which examined air quality dating back to 2013. This runs counter to repeated claims made by President Donald Trump in which he’s stated, “I want crystal-clean air,” and asserted that the U.S. has “record clean” air.

    Between 2015 and 2017, more than 141 million people — one in four Americans — were exposed to dangerous particle pollution and unhealthy ozone levels, also known as soot and smog. This represents an increase of 7.2 million more people compared to last year’s report.“In many areas of the United States, the air quality is worsening, at least in part because of wildfires and weather patterns fueled by climate change,” Harold Wimmer, president and chief executive of the American Lung Association, said in a statement.

    India has the world's worst air pollution: report | News ...

    https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/03/india-world-worst-air...
    India has the world's worst air pollution: report. India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and China are home to the 50 cities worldwide with the dirtiest air, new study shows.



    When you leftists finally realize that no matter what the US does.....no one is going to force China and India to comply to their environmentalism. Which means the problem will never be solved.

    Didn’t you know that there was no air pollution before Trump was elected.

    Leftists LoL… So air pollution is a leftist thing? Ok, so back to reality, China is fast becoming a world leader in clean energy, they are way ahead of the game. They are ambitious. They even stopped accepting the worlds recycling. That is why it is pilling up in our landfills. They have massive solar farms. Anyways a quick google search can tell you a lot. When most of the world is on board and working at least to not pollute then the rest of the world will naturally follow suit. The US is falling behind. The rest of the world is leaving us in the dust. We choose to stay in the fossil fuel age while the rest of the world is advancing into the future.

    This also begs the laughable statement that your reply implies that just because others are doing it we should too. So let me get this straight. Because India is polluting we should too? We should continue to contaminate our fresh water with chemicals for fracking. We should drill everything and mine everything even at the expense of our own citizens health?https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...O0nXTcXwqhw45Y

    Lady, I've been around too long to buy this nonsense. I remember when it was so bad that you couldn't see from one corner to the next. Our air is as clean as we can get it. Go screw with the Chinese ans Indians. They're the problem. I hate to break your Hate American little heart but facts are what they are.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.

    @MMC I never said they weren't the worst polluters? But they are moving away from that. It is going to take time to heal the damages they did. Do you think it will fix overnight? LoL. The facts are facts,and cannot be disputed. China is becoming a green energy superpower. Opinions on it can be argued but the facts are undisputable. https://futurism.com/china-new-world...ewable-energy/

    China plans to put solar in space https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...station-space/
