NYT Columnist Claims Trump’s Election Shows ‘China Might Have Passed America’ On Climate – ‘The abandonment of pretense to American leadership on climate’
New York Times columnist and author of the not very subtly titled book The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming, David Wallace-Wells, joined MSNBC’s Alex Wagner on her Friday show to react to some of Donald Trump’s cabinet selections.
Wallace-Wells: “It is important to note what we’re seeing right now is the abandonment of pretense to American leadership on climate the world over. Now, people looking around the world have looked at America with some skepticism for years now, we are, you know, the biggest producer of oil and gas in the world, we’re the biggest exporter of it, too. But the re-election of Donald Trump has really sent a clear signal to people worried about climate everywhere around the globe that this fight is not going to be won with American leadership. And it is quite striking to me as someone who’s been following this stuff for so long, you know, if you said to me five or ten years ago that the clearest sign that China might have passed America in its imperial place in the world would be on climate, I would not have believed you, but I think that is where we are now.
