The biggest burner of fossil fuels is the US military.
The worst contaminant for agricultural soil is depleted uranium.
If Trump pulls out of that useless Paris agreement and cuts down on wars, he will be way ahead of Obama's and Biden's best dreams.

The transportation sector is the largest consumer of primary fossil fuel energy in the United States. Largely due to reliance on petroleum-based motor fuels, the transportation sector consumed over 26.1 quadrillion British thermal units of fossil fuel energy in 2023. By comparison, fossil fuel consumption within the electric power sector has experienced an overall declining tendency in recent years, following a decline in U.S. electricity generation from coal.

Trump didn't pull us out of neither Iraq nor Afghanistan his first 4 years.

It’s okay the government will just subsidize the farmers who don’t have enough water this summer. 

The two reservoirs are used to hold supplies for agricultural irrigation districts. Nemeth noted that winter is not the irrigation season for farms, which require more supplies to grow crops in the summer months, “so there isn’t a demand” for the water in the San Joaquin Valley at this time.

A release of that magnitude, he said, would normally be coordinated days in advance, in part because farmers might have expensive farm equipment placed near riverbanks.

“I don’t know where this water is going, but this is the wrong time of year to be releasing water from these reservoirs. It’s vitally important that we fill our reservoirs in the rainy season so water is available for farms and cities later in the summer,” Gleick said. “I think it’s very strange and it’s disturbing that, after decades of careful local, state and federal coordination, some federal agencies are starting to unilaterally manipulate California’s water supply.”
