DAY 3, YEAR 1, A.D. Anno Donaldo

Hours after Trump's investiture (Inauguration), the new Trump White House website deletes all mentions of Obama's climate change intiatives. True or False? Real News or Fake News:

AND: right wing climate denialist perspective of Anthony Watt:

NOTE to FACT CHECKERS: At 11:59 am, the official Obama White House website had a lengthy information page about the threat of climate change and the steps the federal government had taken to fight it. At noon, at the instant Donald Trump took office, the Obama admin page was gone, as well as any mention of climate change or global warming.
It’s customary for www.whitehouse.gov to flip over to the new administration exactly at noon, but the only mention of climate on President Trump’s new website is under his “America First Energy Plan” page, in which he vows to destroy President Obama’s Climate Action Plan, which is a government-wide plan to reduce carbon emissions and address climate change. To reiterate: It is normal that the site is completely new; it is notable that climate change is not mentioned on any one of Trump's new pages.
