Obama says "climate change can no longer be denied, or ignored"

"At Everglades, Obama to warn of damage from climate neglect", 22 Apr 2015

In recent weeks, [Obama] has cited the health impact of climate change, toured solar-panel installations in Washington and Utah and pledged to reduce U.S. carbon emissions at least 26 percent by 2025...The Everglades, a swath of wetlands that covers more than 1.5 million acres in southern Florida, has become a symbol for the economic and environmental threats posed by climate change, the White House has said. Saltwater intrusion has threatened the supply of drinking water for residents in South Florida...Matt Bellinger, who charters fishing boats in the Florida Keys, said he has already felt the impact of climate change on his business, with hotter temperatures driving away fish and damaging coral reefs...Both [Florida Republican Senators Mark Rubio and Jeb Bush] have questioned the human influence on global temperatures and said Obama’s initiatives to curb carbon emissions would harm the economy.
