TRUMP CONTINUES TO FACE FACT-CHECKS OVER CLIMATE CHANGE CLAIMS

President Donald Trump has continued making statements about climate change that fact-checkers have found to be false or misleading, reviving arguments he has made for years.

FactCheck.org previously examined similar claims in September 2024 and has continued to scrutinize Trump’s climate-related statements during his current presidency. 

More recently, fact-checkers challenged Trump’s interpretation of updated climate scenarios, saying he incorrectly portrayed changes in emissions projections as evidence that previous climate science was “wrong.” Researchers emphasized that climate scenarios are possible pathways, not predictions, and that updated projections do not invalidate the broader evidence that human activity is driving global warming. 

The debate continues as Trump maintains his long-standing skepticism toward climate policies and climate-related warnings
