In this Our Altering Environment environmental video essay, I look at how Donald Trump uses the Coronavirus (COVID-19) as a reason and distraction in order to dismantle necessary ecological regulations. Not only has the Trump administration made a mess of the action to COVID-19, but they are also actively making the Coronavirus, the environment, and climate change worse.
