Trump’s Infrastructure May Ignore ‘Climate Change’ Or Something

Trump’s Infrastructure Plan May Ignore Climate Change. It Could Be Costly.

President Trump is expected to unveil on Monday a plan that would fulfill one of his signature campaign promises: a $1.5 trillion, once-in-a-generation proposal to rebuild, restore and modernize the nation’s aging infrastructure.

“We will build gleaming new roads, bridges, highways, railways and waterways all across our land,” Mr. Trump said in his State of the Union address.

But while the proposal represents one of the administration’s main legislative ambitions, it could directly clash with one of its defining regulatory principles, which is to question the risk from global warming and roll back regulations addressing climate change.

The Trump infrastructure blueprint is almost certain to call for expensive new roads, bridges, airports and other projects in areas that are increasingly vulnerable to rising waters and other threats from a warming planet. Engineers and researchers say that construction plans should consider these design constraints at the outset. Their concern is that a plan led by a White House that has both discounted climate science and weakened climate change regulations could mean that costly projects may be vulnerable to damage or, in a worst-case scenario, quickly rendered obsolete by the changing environment.

In other words, some people are upset that the plan won’t line their pockets with sweet, sweet climate cash.

Seriously, this isn’t even news. It’s alarmist propaganda using prognostications of doom hiding a cultish viewpoint espoused by people who refuse to practice what they preach.
