Climate Politics

In politics, there is a lot of talk revolving around a changing climate. There are two prevailing arguments: 1. The World is heating up causing the climate to change drastically. 2. The Climate is not changing, merely a shift in natures cycle, cold events such as blizzards are evidence of that. This is a brief and simplified version of each general ideology. Some may have different ideas, however these are the two prevailing consensus's in politics.

For Republicans, the common belief is that the climate is not changing, and it is merely a shift in natures cycle. This idea is fronted by leader of the economic relm of the presidential nominees, and supreme leader of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Trump tweeted,
 "The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive."
"Any and all weather events are used by the GLOBAL WARMING HOAXSTERS to justify higher taxes to save our planet! They don't believe it $$$$!"
"Ice storm rolls from Texas to Tennessee - I'm in Los Angeles and it's freezing. Global warming is a total, and very expensive, hoax!"
Trump uses examples of cold weather to explain that the climate, in his mind, isn't changing.

For Democrats, the belief that the World is heating up causing the climate to change drastically. This idea is backed by current Democratic front-runner, Hillary Clinton. She tweeted,
