The U.S. hasn't reported a human bird flu case in 3 months. Experts are wondering why

Trump administration cuts back on information related to climate change

Wed, 2025-05-21 09:24 — mike kraft

When the Trump administration declared two weeks ago that it would largely disregard the economic cost of climate change as it sets policies and regulations, it was just the latest step in a multipronged effort to erase global warming from the American agenda.
