Message: From GoLocalProv by Rob Horowitz, GoLocalProv MINDSETTER™: The Trump Administration shamelessly deflected questions about whether climate change was a contributing factor in the intensity of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma by claiming that a conversation about causes was somehow in the way of the focus required to help disaster victims. Advancing this glaringly obvious false choice argument may have helped the Administration get through a couple of awkward news cycles, given their efforts to roll back Obama Administration greenhouse gas reduction initiatives and President Trump’s ill-advised intention to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement, but over the long-run they will not be able to wish the conversation away. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/horowitz-the-false-choice-focusing-on-hurricane-victims-or-climate-change
