Trump says climate is changing, accuses scientists of “political agenda”

President Donald Trump, in an interview with “60 Minutes”, says he believes in climate change, but says scientists “have a very big political agenda”.

In a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), it says climate change can only be remedied with expensive, major changes in human activity.

“But I don’t know if it’s manmade. I will say this. I don’t want to give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don’t want to lose millions and millions of jobs. I don’t want to be put at a disadvantage,” said Trump on climate change.

In 2016, Trump had said climate change was a hoax while campaigning.
