I have a saying: “if you are going to screw up, screw up in favor of your great grand children”. And Trumpster has a saying: “screw the great grand children”.
At the rate Trumpites are shafting us, and the environment, the suits won’t do any good. Like war, Trump ain’t good for children or other living things.
When I was a teen in the 1970s, we were warning that this could happen, and the word “Ecology” suddenly became a household word. A shame so few listened. Too late now.
But wait. Order within the next 20 minutes and we’ll send you a second suit absolutely free. Just pay separate shipping and handling. If you die, return the suit for a full refund.
Modern environmental policy is like the parachute = when it works, no complaint, but when it doesn’t, there is no hope for recovery. Unlike the parachute, however, those who survive might eventually devise a model that works.
Hopefully, the fashion industry will at least make the pockets on hazmat pants big enough to hold those big honking smartphones. They probably did since no one in the panel is holding a smartphone.
I remember in the 1970s reading dystopian fiction novels predicting that we’d all be wearing breathing masks by 2000 because of the terrible air pollution. And so it goes.
There once was an EPA requirement that municipal water supplies reduce the contaminate level by some percentage. Heard of a town, who’s water from the well was so clean, that the only way they could economically comply was to contaminate the water before they ran it through their water plant.
Carbon dioxide HELPS plants; it’s what they ‘breathe’ in, before they ‘exhale’ oxygen; Obama’s EPA tried to control carbon dioxide as if it going to end life as we know it. Of course, if carbon dioxide is LOW, instead of a GREENING planet, it would be a DEAD planet; YOU’D be dead too!
“Anthropogenic Climate Change” was identified regionally, Europe and the Mediterranean surround, in the 1950’s. “Climate” is part of the problem, poisoned seas, soils, rivers, and air, are actually a seperate, but interrelated group of problems. Poison the bees, lose agriculture, no food, no problems, right? Who needs drinkable water that won’t kill your plants as well, like the good stuff in Detroit? Rivers on fire? No problem. We DID pass laws that were reversing some damage, limiting the growth of others. The real problem is that Trump folks are REVERSING what progress we made, and even making some situations worse than BEFORE NEPA passed and some folks woke up.
Wiley understates the end problem caused by politics and profits.. We aren’t going to pay the “piper”, and the Grim Reaper will be inundated with work.
Donald Trump is not dumb ! He is stark raving mad !
He is a very psychologically disturbed individual, whose narcissism and psychopathology is being nurtured and encouraged by those around him. They are the true blight on Democracy and the real traitors !
Having the regulations is more likely to cause a hazmat suit boom. It’s the fear factor. Like here in California where everything has a sign or label saying it’s known to cause cancer.
Once the Oil & Chemical industries have finished destroying the Ozone Layer and turning the air Toxic, they will be happy to sell us all sorts of protective clothing to keep the UV from giving us Skin Cancer &burning our Eyes out and the Acid in the Air from eating our Lungs out.

The changes to the EPA stopped the over-concentration on eliminating CO2, that did not cause a need for hazmat suits. (Stupid comic)
