Trump Election Happened During Intl’ Meeting On Climate

Among the most anxious watchers of the US election were the attendees of a global meeting in Marrakech, Morocco working to combat climate change. With Trump having declared global warming a hoax, climate justice activists and even country delegates at the COP22 UN meeting were likely thrown off balance by this political earthquake.
