Last week, the current President of the United States started cracking down on climate change. I don't mean like, he made strides for our country to rebuild its infrastructure to maintain the standards of a future economy with renewable energy sources like solar or wind.

He moved to silence the community of scientists and researchers dedicating their lives to obtaining and analyzing data and coming up with ways to heal the planet.

These actions have had several interesting consequences and repercussions. 

First, the aforementioned community of scientists have begun a movement to start moving away from the laboratories and into congress and other seats in government.
