Donald Trump urges global warming to ‘come back fast’ as wind chill hits -60C in America’s bitter Midwest
The US President has been continually resistant to tackling climate change, once describing it as a 'Chinese hoax'
THE President of the United States yesterday urged global warming to "come back fast" as a -60C wind chill swept through America's Midwest.
Donald Trump's baffling plea came as a state of emergency was declared in Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois as well as in the southern states of Alabama and Mississippi after extreme arctic blasts swept through large swathes of the US.
And Mr Trump also left the world gasping for breath after once again failing to take climate change seriously.
Trump has presented various musings on the climate, but consistently been resistant to taking action against climate change - describing it as a "Chinese hoax" and pulling out of the Paris Agreement in 2017.
But Trump's refusal to acknowledge the real impact of or science behind climate change is nothing new.
In November last year he tweeted: "Brutal and Extended Cold Blast could shatter ALL RECORDS - Whatever happened to Global Warming?"
Responding to climate change-fuelled forest blazes in California, he blamed all the fires on "poor forest management" rather than mentioning the warming of the atmosphere.
