I can't help but view this post cynically as anti-Trump propaganda motivated solely by ruling class hostility to President Trump. How can one take this article seriously from a media corporation that has functioned as the main propaganda organ of the ruling capitalist class, and its past record of always supporting the government's inconsequential efforts to limit global warming.
There has been a rather widespread belief among scientists and other informed people that it is now too late to reverse, and thereby prevent, catastrophic effects from the accumulated amount of carbon already spewed into our atmosphere. This article emphasizes the rather benign warnings of federal scientists. Due to obvious reasons to safeguard their own careers in government, these scientists have the most conservative views (see this and this) among scientists in general regarding the threats to humans posed by global warming .
