Scientists typically stay out of public policy debates, but an academic makes the case that they need to push back against politicians who distort research.

The Trump administration has already sought to reverse several Obama-era climate change policies. Pro-environment people should now focus on threats to state climate actions.
A climate scientist and policy scholar sees three possible scenarios following Trump’s plan to pull out of the Paris Agreement –
ranging from a small uptick in emissions to a global recession.
