Senator Ed Markey attributes the devastating California wildfires to the climate emergency and criticizes President-elect Trump's ties to the oil industry. He also expresses concern about the potential environmental consequences of artificial intelligence.
As fires wreak havoc in California, Sen. Ed Markey , D-Mass., claimed in a post on X the catastrophe is 'what a climate emergency looks like.' In another tweet, he took aim at President-elect Trump, asserting the incoming president has been bought off by the oil industry. 'Trump has been bought for $1 billion by Big Oil. Just a payoff to kill the IRA and the Green New Deal. We know what will happen. More fires, more climate disasters, more death.
Trump is slated to take office Jan. 20. 'In his first term, President Trump advanced conservation and environmental stewardship while promoting economic growth for families across the country,' incoming White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. America’s energy agenda under President Trump produced affordable, reliable energy for consumers along with stable, high-paying jobs for small businesses — all while dropping U.S. carbon emissions to their lowest level in 25 years. In his second term, President Trump will once again deliver clean air and water for American families while Making America Wealthy Again.'
