Dear colleagues,

In preparation for tomorrow’s ESC meeting. Please keep in mind that some of the links may go dead, because of the strong opposition this article is getting from the Trump Administration and others involved in climate change denial.

> The average temperature in the United States has risen rapidly and drastically since 1980, and recent decades have been the warmest of the past 1,500 years, according to a sweeping federal climate change report awaiting approval by the Trump administration.

> The draft report by scientists from 13 federal agencies, which has not yet been made public, concludes that Americans are feeling the effects of climate change right now. It directly contradicts claims by President Trump and members of his cabinet who say that the human contribution to climate change is uncertain and that the ability to predict the effects is limited.
