The American people have rejected Donald Trump's rejection of science and global warming. And they have done it in overwhelming numbers.

.............. organizers estimated a crowd of 50,000, which does not appear far off the mark as you can see from this photo from LA:

Thanks Science!

I read about it in a DU thread.

In an advanced society, science is highly valued and cherished. Sigh.
