Donald Trump’s irrational actions continued when he decided to destroy two NASA satellites that study climate change and the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatories satellites accurately measure the carbon content of the atmosphere and also the growth of plants on Earth, which also benefits farmers. According to NASA scientists, the satellites are extremely accurate and in excellent condition, and there is no reason to destroy them. Yet Trump has decided to destroy them in the atmosphere.

Finnish MP Atte Harjanne stated in X: “If one doesn’t believe in climate change, then why is he (Trump) in such a hurry to destroy the evidence? Trump certainly knows that climate change is real and  wants to destroy the satellites and scientific research that study it. Trump has also threatened universities and demanded that they stop climate research, he has even demanded that climate education would be removed from schools. The reason is that he defends the dirty oil business and other polluting industries, even if it means destroying the evidence. After all, Trump also destroyed the materials he stole regarding nuclear bombs by burning them in the toilet of his Mar A Lagoon mansion, so this is a logical continuation. Trump’s actions are shameless and dangerous for the future of all humanity.
