This cartoon reflects President Trump's denunciation of climate change's existence and impact on the planet today.
In the cartoon, Trump is illustrated at his desk in the Oval Office, denying global warming by saying, "Climate change is a hoax!" while the room fills up with ocean water and ocean creatures. The cartoon accompanies an editorial piece titled "The Earth needs our help." It is about the evidence of climate change that has recently impacted Earth and Trump's ignoring of such evidence. The article urges readers to do simple at-home actions to preserve the environment, contact their local government representatives, and have concern for the planet. |
