My Final Post:Trump Order Will Aim to Roll Back a Clean Water Rule Article Review

I feel the most fitting way for me to end my blog posts is to warn about the environmental policies of the current administration, and how it not only relates to this class, but why these must be resisted at all costs. Before I begin, I would like to get one thing clear. This has absolutely NOTHING to do with mt ideology. I am an independent who happens to value the well being of our planet's environment, not a pissed off liberal looking for an excuse to slam Trump. With that being said, I'd like to take a minute to talk about the article, Trump Order Will Aim to Roll Back a Clean Water Rule by Coral Davenport of the New York Times. To be frank, Trump has had me worried since day one with his talk of "clean coal", climate change denial, and the appointment of climate skeptic, Scott Pruitt, as head of the EPA. In this article, Davenport discusses how Trump has recently signed an executive order rolling back one the Obama Administration's most significant environmental protection laws regarding the use of clean water. Although this is quite the lengthy process, this is very worrisome to me because it proves that Trump was not just "all talk", and he intends to see many of his promises of dismantling and rebuilding the EPA through. We must fight back against such outdated and shameful policies not only as United States citizens, but on the grounds of faith as well. The Earth was bestowed unto us to cultivate, rule over, and protect as part of God's creation. How many times must I make the same argument? To me this is not a setback, but more so a test to show that we can resist such out-dated thinking if we remain united and work together. Now is the time for change, not returning to the same policies that got us in the mess of climate change in the fist place.
