Recently, Donald Trump has been obsessed with water, at least the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/06\/23\/us\/trump-reflecting-pool-green-peeling.html\">algae-green water<\/a> in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool that he wants to be a beautiful, pristine blue. But consider that an irony indeed, since when it comes to the planet he now oversees, water is going to be a problem and a half, algae or not.<\/p>\n<p>Phew, in fact, I\u2019m already sweating and I\u2019ve just been reading about the heat in Europe right now, a region which has been warming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/08\/28\/climate\/climate-change-summer-europe-heat.html\">twice as fast<\/a> as the global average for quite a while. And mind you, I\u2019m thousands of miles away (although still in a distinctly hot New York City about to soon get hotter still)!<\/p>\n<p>If it were me, the headline during Trump\u2019s recent algal week in the news wouldn\u2019t have been in question anywhere on this planet (of ours?). I\u2019m thinking, of course, about the recent days when the mid-June temperature in Paris, France, hit a wild record of nearly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/06\/28\/world\/europe\/europe-heat-wave-wildfires.html\">115 (yes, you read that right!) degrees Fahrenheit<\/a> and it was in the 106-113 degree range across the European continent. From England to Switzerland and Spain, temperature records of a remarkable sort were being set and then set again (and again!).<\/p>\n<p>No one had ever seen anything quite like it. In the third week of June, it was so hot, in fact, that across Europe at least <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/06\/23\/world\/europe\/heat-wave-france-drowning-deaths.html\">40 people drowned<\/a> just trying to stay wet and cool and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2026\/jun\/26\/europe-heatwave-shift-east-child-deaths-france-cities-heat-stress\">four toddlers<\/a> died trapped in overheated cars. And yet, crisis as it might have been, think of it as just the beginning on this distinctly overheating planet of ours. With at least two and a half more years to go of Donald J. Trump, <strong>a <\/strong>fossil-fuel maniac of the first order who has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/newshour\/politics\/trump-called-climate-change-a-con-job-at-the-united-nations-here-are-the-facts-and-context\">called climate change<\/a><strong> \u201c<\/strong>the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world,\u201d you can count on this planet becoming ever hotter ever sooner. And count on another thing as well: in the coming years, today\u2019s weather and temperature headlines, however disturbing they might seem right now, are likely to prove all too mild.<\/p>\n<p>In short, we humans \u2014 Trump in his wildly pro-fossil fuel views and acts being just the most obviously mad of our leaders \u2014 are all too literally hard at work heating this planet of \u201cours\u201d toward the boiling point. Of course, no one should be surprised that this American president has proven to be an arsonist first class, a fossil-fuelized maniac of the first order. (Or do I mean second class and second order, since this is indeed his second time around?)<\/p>\n<p>Once upon a time, in another age, Donald J. Trump\u2019s return to the presidency would have been just a sign of the descent of a great imperial power. But on this planet of ours at this very moment, he represents so much more than that with his bizarre urge to further fossilize-fuelize our world in every way imaginable. Think of him, in fact, as the eerie personification of the decline not just of the United States, but potentially of everything. Yes, the works!<\/p>\n<div class=\"captioned-image-container\">\n<figure>\n<div class=\"image2-inset\"><picture><source data-srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 1456w\" type=\"image\/webp\" data-sizes=\"100vw\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sizing-normal perfmatters-lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"395.2508591065292\" data-attrs=\"{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/public\/images\/c51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:878,&quot;width&quot;:582,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:262,&quot;bytes&quot;:535484,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image\/png&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Frenchman-Flat-Rise-Atomic-Bombs\/dp\/0674300351\/ref=sr_1_1&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;topImage&quot;:true,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/tomengelhardt.substack.com\/i\/204139339?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png&quot;,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png\" srcset=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 424w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 848w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 1272w, https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/fetch\/$s_!NE8J!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep\/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc51f99b8-20f1-4e9c-94ae-3cf09758b6fb_582x878.png 1456w\" data-sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/picture>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"button-wrapper\" data-attrs=\"{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Frenchman-Flat-Rise-Atomic-Bombs\/dp\/0674300351\/ref=sr_1_1&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Buy the Book&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}\" data-component-name=\"ButtonCreateButton\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And keep in mind that, on this ever-changing planet of ours, the keys to imperial power no longer lie in war, as Trump and crew made all too clear recently in Iran, and Vladimir Putin has made even more strikingly clear in his never-ending war with Ukraine, the most devastating conflict in Europe since World War II. And, of course, it continues to pour fossil fuels into the atmosphere (just as Israel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lancaster.ac.uk\/news\/study-highlights-the-hidden-climate-cost-of-the-israelgaza-war\">recently did<\/a> in Gaza and Lebanon). It\u2019s estimated that the first four years of that conflict have indeed already put <a href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/02\/24\/from-fossil-fuelled-tanks-to-wildfires-how-russias-war-on-ukraine-is-destroying-the-planet\">311 million tons<\/a> of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>On Planet Earth today, it\u2019s not complicated. No matter who (if anyone) wins any war, <em>everyone <\/em>loses. Yes, <em>every last one of us<\/em> from the almost 82-year-old me to \u2014 especially \u2014 my grandchildren who, barring a genuine surprise, will inherit what could only be thought of as the planet from \u2014 yes! \u2014 hell.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s why, for the first time in human history, taking up the keys to global imperial power should no longer mean becoming the greatest military powerhouse around, something that \u2014 to give its leaders credit \u2014 China has grasped in a significant way. Now, don\u2019t get me wrong, China is indeed arming itself in a traditional (if I can even use that word) fashion, including with the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nuclear_weapons_of_China\">nuclear weapons<\/a> that are the fastest way we humans have discovered to do ourselves in on this planet. But its leaders have also grasped that, as the heat rises ever more radically, the need for green power will only grow in an astounding fashion.<\/p>\n<p>And so, in its imperial rise on this planet, and despite the way it, too, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/energy\/chinas-coal-power-rise-again-2026-reversing-first-in-a-decade-decline-2026-06-24\/\">continues to burn<\/a> coal, oil, and natural gas in a staggering fashion, it\u2019s become the Earth\u2019s great green power. It\u2019s now selling the equipment to produce solar and wind power in a distinctly record fashion globally. As the <em>Guardian<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2026\/feb\/05\/china-green-energy-sector-investment-growth\">reports<\/a>, \u201cthe manufacture, installation and export of batteries, electric cars, solar, wind and related technologies accounted for more than a third of China\u2019s economic growth\u201d in 2025 and \u201cclean energy industries drove more than 90% of the country\u2019s investment growth last year, making the sectors bigger than all but seven of the world\u2019s economies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"433\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-232307 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/media.juancole.com\/images\/2026\/07\/javier-miranda-7bnvNN3R_eo-unsplash.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.juancole.com\/images\/2026\/07\/javier-miranda-7bnvNN3R_eo-unsplash.jpg 570w, https:\/\/media.juancole.com\/images\/2026\/07\/javier-miranda-7bnvNN3R_eo-unsplash-303x230.jpg 303w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\"\/><br \/><i><small> Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@nuvaproductions?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Javier Miranda<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/a-picture-of-the-earth-in-a-ring-of-fire-7bnvNN3R_eo?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a> <\/small><\/i><\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been trying to ensure that, in our future, the United States will indeed be a lost country on this planet.

And make no mistake, this is indeed war (even if of a different kind than anything we\u2019ve been used to). Under the circumstances, don\u2019t you think it strange indeed that Americans would have elected Donald Trump a second time to be our arsonist-in-chief?<\/p>\n<p>And here\u2019s the thing all of us need to try to grasp: the worst that\u2019s happening right now is nothing compared to what could happen in the years to come.
