Four years of climate change denial by the Trump administration, an overt and strident rejection of science and a program of 'burning the data' come to an end as Trump is defeated in 2020. Trump administration's effort to delete/block/defund fact-finding atmospheric/earth/climate science work ends. "Burning the Data" is relegated to dark days in history.

''By most accounts, President-Elect Biden looks to position climate change as a central organizing principle in his Executive Branch. Through cabinet appointments of sympathetic experts at agencies not normally at the fore of environmental policy—such as Treasury, Justice, and Transportation—Biden hopes to deliver wide-ranging wins on climate policy. The EPA, the Energy Department, and the Interior Department will be redeployed in Obama-era roles as key instruments for aggressive climate action. These would all be positive steps forward.''

''What appears largely missing is a commensurate level of effort directed towards infusing climate change deep into the national security community.

After decades of Earth Science and environmental initiatives, progress and international cooperation, the recent four years of US denial, blame and retreat delivered a severe setback to comprehensive national security. The record of the Trump presidency and its politics concluded with an attack on the US Capitol in Washington DC.

The departure in January 2021 of the Trump administration, after a historic US election, ended overt and strident Trump rejection of science and its ignominious program of "burning the data".

The Biden administration enters office with a call to action

At the invitation of the new U.S. president, nations are gathering this week in a virtual climate summit to share their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) toward solving the climate change crisis.

We, GreenPolicy360 with our associate Strategic Demands, will continue covering news of the climate conference, both good and threatening. Our several decades of pushing for immediate, concerted action and 'New Definitions of National Security' by all nations is front of stage, and confronted by old definitions of security, conflicts and wars, that take our eyes off of the existential challenges of climate -- and a resurgent, escalating nuclear weapons threat.

Here, following in the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, we look at a key group of experts sounding alarms about both nuclear war and climate disaster.

Climate change is a great existential challenge of our time and must given a spotlight and focus of our citizen action.
