Trump celebrates after UN climate committee moves away from its most extreme global warming scenario
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump on Saturday blasted Democratic climate policies after scientists moved away from one of the most extreme global warming scenarios previously used in United Nations-backed climate modeling.
«GOOD RIDDANCE! After 15 years of Dumocrats promising that ‘Climate Change’ is going to destroy the Planet, the United Nations TOP Climate Committee just admitted that its own projections (RCP8.5) were WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!» Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Trump accused Democrats of using climate fears to justify energy policies and government spending.
«For far too long Climate Activism has been used by Dumocrats to scare Americans, push horrible Energy Polices, and fund BILLIONS into their bogus research programs,» he continued. «Unlike the Dumocrats, who use Climate Alarmism nonsense to push their GREEN NEW SCAM, my Administration will always be based on TRUTH, SCIENCE, and FACT!»

Trump’s comments came after climate scientists moved away from using the most extreme emissions scenario developed under the United Nations-backed Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
The IPCC’s worst-case scenarios, which included significant global temperature increases and sea level rises, included global crop failures and even potential extinction events on the scale of the dinosaurs.
The scenario, known as RCP8.5 and later SSP5-8.5, projected severe global warming outcomes under extremely high emissions assumptions.

According to GB News, the scenario is being phased out after researchers concluded it no longer reflects the most plausible trajectory based on renewable energy growth, emissions trends and climate policies.
Researchers writing in the journal Geoscientific Model Development said future climate scenarios should continue to cover a wide range of outcomes, from severe warming to lower-emissions futures.
«For the 21st century, this range will be smaller than assessed before: on the high-end of the range, the high emission levels (quantified by SSP5-8.5) have become implausible, based on trends in the costs of renewables, the emergence of climate policy and recent emission trends.»
TRUMP OFFICIALS URGED TO BOYCOTT UN CLIMATE SUMMIT AS TRUMP SEETHES CLIMATE CHANGE IS A ‘CON JOB’
Trump’s post follows remarks he made last September at the U.N. General Assembly in New York, where he called climate change a «con job.»
«It’s the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world, in my opinion,» Trump said at the time. «All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, often for bad reasons, were wrong.»
«They were made by stupid people that have cost their country’s fortunes and given those same countries no chance for success,» he continued.

Trump’s comments drew criticism from Democrats, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who called the remarks «total disinformation.»
«You know yesterday at the U.N., President Trump said, ‘Climate change is a hoax,’ because it’s just total disinformation,» Clinton said during the Clinton Global Initiative in New York. «It’s a statement that is just not true, and yet being propagated.»
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin later defended Trump’s climate remarks in an interview with Fox News.

A woman walking her dog in a wooded area in Canada recently found herself stalked by a large bear, according to a tense viral video she shot on her phone.
Despite the woman repeatedly shouting at the bear «No! Go away» and making loud noises to scare it away, it continued to follow her down the road.
After at first slowly moving toward her, the bear suddenly started charging, circling her as she kept backing away and screaming for it to leave them alone.
For nearly two agonizing minutes, the bear runs toward her then backs away, rearing up on its hind legs several times, revealing its massive size.

Estados Unidos bombardeó Irán tras el ataque a un buque en el estrecho de Ormuz, mientras en Washington se firma un acuerdo tripartito
El Ejército estadounidense bombardeó este viernes a Irán como represalia por un ataque que la República Islámica había realizado el jueves a un buque de carga en el estrecho de Ormuz, lo que complica aún más la débil tregua en Medio Oriente, mientras en Washington se firmaba un acuerdo trilateral entre el gobierno de Estados Unidos, Israel y Líbano para frenar los enfrentamientos en esa región.
El ataque fue confirmado por el Comando Central de Estados Unidos (Centcom) que señaló que fue ejecutado por aviones que atacaron almacenes de drones y misiles iraníes, así como bases costeras de radares.
El Centcom acusó a Irán de «violar el alto al fuego» y dijo que su acción fue «una respuesta contundente» al ataque del jueves de Irán contra el buque M/V Ever Lovely, con bandera de Singapur, mientras estaba saliendo del estrecho de Ormuz a lo largo de la costa de Omán.
«La agresión injustificada contra el transporte marítimo comercial por parte de las fuerzas iraníes violó claramente el alto el fuego», añadió en su comunicado el Centcom y advirtió que «el comportamiento peligroso de Irán socavó la libertad de navegación en un momento en que el comercio fluye cada vez más a través de este corredor comercial internacional de vital importancia».
El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, había acusado esta mañana a Irán de una violación «insensata» del alto el fuego por lanzar «al menos cuatro drones de ataque unidireccional contra barcos que transitaban por el estrecho de Ormuz».
El incidente ocurrió a 7,5 millas náuticas al sureste de Dahit, en Omán, según la Agencia británica de Operaciones de Comercio Marítimo (UKMTO), que recomendó precaución a los buques en la vía, por donde pasa el 20 % del crudo global.
Este sería el primer ataque registrado en la zona desde que Estados Unidos e Irán firmaron la semana pasada un memorando de entendimiento para acabar con las hostilidades y reabrir el tráfico en Ormuz, en lo que negocian un acuerdo final que aborde el programa nuclear iraní.
El Centcom aseguró que las fuerzas estadounidenses «continúan brindando coordinación y apoyo para el paso seguro de las embarcaciones comerciales que transitan por el estrecho».
El vicepresidente JD Vance advirtió que Estados Unidos responderá a cualquier ataque de Irán con «violencia» y recordó que «Irán firmó un acuerdo de alto el fuego. Nosotros lo hemos respetado. Si tienen desacuerdos sobre cómo se está aplicando el memorando de entendimiento, pueden levantar el teléfono. Pero la violencia será respondida con violencia».
En Washington se firmó un acuerdo trilateral en busca de la paz en Medio Oriente
En medio de la compleja red de conflictos históricos que lleva décadas en Medio Oriente, autoridades de Israel y Líbano firmaron este viernes un acuerdo bajo el auspicio de Estados Unidos en busca de la paz que se ve complicada por la presencia de la agrupación terrorista Hezbolá en el sur libanés.
El secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, destacó que este acuerdo daba «un marco para una paz y una seguridad duraderas», aunque admitió que «es el comienzo del comienzo. Queda mucho trabajo por delante».
El primer ministro israelí, Benjamín Netanyahu, celebró el documento como una victoria contra Irán, mientras Teherán sostiene que el conflicto de Israel en Líbano contra su aliado Hezbolá es inseparable de la guerra más amplia, y debe formar parte del acuerdo final que están negociando Washington y Teherán.
Netanyahu afirmó que, en virtud del acuerdo, se permitiría al ejército libanés tomar el control de «dos zonas piloto» para empezar a asumir el control de partes del sur de Líbano, cerca del río Litani, a unos treinta kilómetros de la frontera con Israel.
El presidente libanés, Joseph Aoun, celebró el acuerdo como «un primer paso» hacia la restauración de la soberanía de Líbano, sin «ocupación», «subordinación» ni «tutela».
esde el sur de Líbano, el diputado del Hezbolá Hassan Fadlallah puso reparos y estimó que aplicar el trato entraña un riesgo de «guerra civil».
Las «autoridades libanesas no podrán imponer la aplicación del acuerdo firmado en Washington a menos que se encaminen, con apoyo estadounidense, hacia una guerra civil», afirmó.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy reaffirmed the Trump administration’s commitment to holding Atlanta’s Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) «accountable» following the horrific stabbing death of a great-grandmother, announcing Friday that the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is actively scrutinizing the transit system’s safety and security plans.
In an X post Friday, Duffy said the FTA has launched a comprehensive review of MARTA’s security spending and safety protocols, along with risks to riders and workers.
He noted that while MARTA met the government’s initial deadline for a response and assured the administration they are taking action, the FTA «won’t stop there.»
John Elijah Matthews faces a federal charge of committing an act of violence causing death on a mass transportation system, after he allegedly stabbed 66-year-old Margaret Swan aboard a Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) train. (@SecDuffy/X)
ATLANTA TRAIN STABBING SUSPECT FACES NEW CHARGE AS FEDS WEIGH DEATH PENALTY IN GREAT-GRANDMOTHER’S KILLING
«We are examining every aspect of their plan to verify if substantive improvements are being made,» Duffy wrote in the post. «This includes pouring over hundreds of pages of documents and conducting on-site visits to see the situation on the ground. We will continue to work to secure Atlanta’s system for passengers and transit workers alike.»
The intense federal review into MARTA was launched after the unprovoked killing of 66-year-old Margaret Swan.
Swan was riding a northbound MARTA train near the Oakland City Station on May 30 when John Elijah Matthews, 25, allegedly approached her, reached into his pocket and opened a folding knife.
John Elijah Matthews allegedly began the attack by cutting the throat of the victim, identified as Margaret Swan, just seconds after he walked up next to where she was sitting on a train approaching the Oakland City MARTA station. (MARTA | Fulton County Sheriff’s Office)

According to prosecutors and a Fulton County arrest warrant, Matthews sliced Swan’s throat and subsequently stabbed her approximately 18 to 20 times in the neck and chest as she screamed and attempted to defend herself.
Matthews allegedly threw Swan to the floor before exiting the train at the Oakland City Station, where MARTA police arrested him holding a bloody knife.
Despite emergency medical aid from first responders, Swan was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police officers arrested John Elijah Matthews immediately near the train after several witnesses saw the violent act take place. Emergency medical workers attempted life-saving efforts, but the 66-year-old victim died on the scene. (WAGA-TV)

Witnesses confirmed there was no interaction between the two prior to the attack.
Matthews is facing a local felony murder charge and has been federally charged with committing an act of violence using a dangerous weapon with intent to cause death on a mass transportation system.
If convicted, he could face life in prison or the death penalty, a determination that will be made by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche.
DUFFY WARNS CHICAGO, BOSTON TRANSIT SYSTEMS COULD RISK FEDERAL SUPPORT AMID RISING VIOLENCE
In an X post earlier this month, Duffy said the rates of assaults, robberies and rapes on MARTA’s trains are «MORE THAN THREE TIMES the national average.»
The FTA’s audit aims to examine if MARTA has properly implemented its safety plans to protect passengers and how it has allocated federal funds intended for security improvements.
