Donald Trump appears to misunderstand basic facts of climate change in Piers Morgan interview
Donal Trump and Piers Morgan
Donald Trump has expressed doubts over the existence of climate change, as it is understood by the vast majority of scientists.
After proclaiming his belief in “clean air and clean water”, the US President questioned some of the central tenets of climate science in an interview with Piers Morgan.
Mr Trump also repeated previous statements that he could “go back” into the Paris climate agreement, but said that he would only make such a decision if he could get “a good deal” for the US.
US President Donald Trump dismisses climate change and global warming in a TV interview this evening where he justifies leaving the Paris Accord because it was "a disaster" for America.
In a rambling and somewhat incoherent response to questions from Piers Morgan. He says, "There is a cooling, and there's a heating. I mean, look, it used to not be climate change, it used to be global warming. That wasn't working too well because it was getting too cold all over the place.
"The ice caps were going to melt, they were going to be gone by now, but now they're setting records. They're at a record level."
