“Why does the Trump administration continue to deny climate change? The answer is power. Denial shields fossil fuel allies whose profits depend on unrestricted carbon extraction. It protects them from accountability. It turns public knowledge into proprietary models owned by insurers, hidden from citizens but baked into every premium and mortgage. In political ecology terms, it privatizes risk and socializes loss.

“Denial also controls the narrative. If Melissa is framed as a freak act of nature, no one has to admit it was intensified by decades of deregulation and emissions. Without official data, storms remain isolated tragedies instead of evidence of a pattern. That fog of uncertainty buys time for industries and politicians alike. It turns climate into a culture-war litmus test: to acknowledge the science is to side with elites, to reject it is to prove loyalty.

“The suppression of climate science weakens public institutions themselves. Agencies like NOAA and EPA, once pillars of civic knowledge, are made to look irrelevant as their capacities are stripped. Citizens lose faith in the state’s ability to measure, warn, and respond. That erosion of trust is no accident. It clears the way for a politics where truth is whatever leaders declare.”

Rising seas, silenced science, and the political economy of denial
