In this report, Al Jazeera examines a newly released congressionally mandated study from the US Global Change Research Program, highlighting the increasing intensity of extreme weather disasters in the United States, which are attributed to climate change. The multi-agency findings warn that these events could lead to economic damages amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars by the end of the century. Notably, these conclusions stand in stark contrast to President Donald Trump’s recent statements, where he dismissed climate change as a “hoax” and questioned global warming amid cold weather in the US and UK. Al Jazeera’s Mike Hanna brings you the latest from Washington, DC.
