EPA personnel felt they were no longer valued after this announcement.

In 2009, President Obama put forth a campaign to help with the climate change by implementing clean energy.

Conservationists expressed their concerns with President Obama's clean energy regulations. Americans for Prosperity group started attack ads towards EPA. Oklahoma was one of the strongest states against these new regulations.

Scott Pruitt went full force against Obama's administration when running for Attorney General. He won by a landslide.

All of this caused Obama to have a difficult time getting Congress to pass anything to help with climate change.]]> 2019-02-14 00:07:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jmrauch/kmak1aj75oj3/wish/331096891 jmrauch https://padlet.com/jmrauch/kmak1aj75oj3/wish/331113500 RAGA getting donations from lobbyists (top law enforcements from the different states)from energy sector.

President Obama's 2nd term he decided he was going to put climate control as his top priority. Republican control congress wouldn't allow him to try to improve it.

Lawsuit from RAGA to EPA against the policies.

In 2015, 195 countries come together to approve the 1st global agreement to limit carbon emissions.

2016 Presidential Campaign Murray tried to form another political alliance with Trump. Murray had no comment when he was asked if he advised President Trump to name Scott Pruitt to be EPA administrator. A week after Pruitt took his place, President Trump put into place that the federal agency can slash regulations. 2 dozen rules were pulled out under Pruitt's administration. Obama's clean power plan was top priority. 

Trump withdrew from the global agreement.

Global warming is causing the island to have the seas rise causing people to have to move if it becomes too high. Rising temperatures are killing the coral, droughts are occurring, coastlines are eroding, cyclones could have a greater intensity.

Marshall Islands became independent in 1986. They are run with a president. Marshallese government is trying to find ways adapt the impacts of climate change. Forming a climate change group in UN. US pulling out of the agreement reduced the life of Marshall Islands from 65-38 years.]]> 2019-02-14 01:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jmrauch/kmak1aj75oj3/wish/331117393 jmrauch https://padlet.com/jmrauch/kmak1aj75oj3/wish/331117487 If all of Greenland's ice melted, the world's sea level is estimated to rise 20 ft.

All of them state that there are lobbyists that are against it and that climate change is just a natural way of life. It will go back to normal. With all of the statistics shown in these videos and previous readings, climate change is caused by humans and we are destroying Earth. If we don't try and "fix" it, we will eventually have Earth die on us. ]]> 2019-02-14 02:12:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jmrauch/kmak1aj75oj3/wish/331122977
