Although, he often boasts that the U.S. has the cleanest air in the world, statistics show otherwise.

In boasting about his environmental record, Trump could discuss marine debris cleanup efforts or he could discuss funds earmarked to restore the Florida Everglades, but he has little else to go on, according to <span style="text-decoration-color: rgb(82, 149, 70); line-height: 1.5;">the Guardian</span>.</font></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Yet, in an off-the-record conference call on Wednesday, the White House asked key supporting groups to spread the message that the U.S. under Trump continues to be an environmental leader.</font></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Trump's environment officials, including U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Andrew Wheeler, interior Sec.

Sarah Hunt, of the cross-partisan Rainey Center, said Trump should use the opportunity to endorse America's emissions cuts so far.</font></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">"American energy innovation allows our nation to lead the world in greenhouse gas emissions reductions – we've cut our emissions over 10 percent since 2005," Hunt said to <span style="text-decoration-color: rgb(82, 149, 70); line-height: 1.5;">the Guardian</span>. "The president should be proud that American natural gas, wind and solar energy are creating jobs and fighting climate change.

It's the Trump energy agenda, which makes people wealthier. Wealthier is healthier, the wealthier we are, the higher our environmental quality."</font></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Analysis from academics, medical experts like the American Lung Association, and environmental experts suggests otherwise. Trump's policies, delivered at the behest of the fossil fuel industry will threaten the health of Americans, could significantly increase greenhouse gas emissions, and lead to thousands of deaths from hazardous air quality, according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/climate/trump-environment-rollbacks.html" target="blank" style="text-decoration-color: rgb(82, 149, 70); line-height: 1.5;">the New York Times</a>.</font></p><p style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">==</font></p></div></div></div></div>
