Spratt uses a review of a book he just read, The Madhouse Effect, to speculate on the changes that might come about regarding the climate destabilization issue under the Trump administration. But I argue that there can't be any substantial change when no substantial change has been occurring except empty promises. It is just that the Trump administration might stop using rhetoric that suggests they are concerned about the issue or lying about doing something to mitigate the looming disaster that lies ahead due to the ongoing capitalist assault on the environment. This candor might be refreshing.
