Boy, takes some shitty "journalism" to produce a headline like that.

Yesterday, Trump stopped by the U.N. General Assembly to briefly attend the Climate Action Summit. He didn't speak but was seen leaning forward in an aisle chair as Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi spoke from the stage. Trump was seated next to Vice President Mike Pence and other Cabinet officials. He was also with newly confirmed U.N. Ambassador Kelly Craft, whose personal wealth derives in part from her family's coal business. Craft recently said there were "good scientists on both sides" of the climate debate.
Trump later told reporters that he went to the climate summit to promote clean air and clean water. "All countries should get together and do that," Trump said. "And they should do it for themselves."
EDIT
On Sunday, on his way to visit a community damaged by flooding in Texas, Trump connected the inundation to climate change. "I'm going on the floods today," Trump said. "The floods are very important to me. And climate change — everything is very important."
EDIT
But that acknowledgment of climate change can rankle some hard-line opponents of climate science who feel burned by Trump's refusal to establish a panel to review the findings in the National Climate Assessment. The architect of that plan, former National Security Council senior director William Happer, resigned earlier this month. "I have already seen the campaign influence the White House in a very unfortunate direction, namely in getting the Happer climate review delayed indefinitely," said Myron Ebell, who headed Trump's transition team at EPA. "It should be happening right now."
