Wednesday in San Francisco, during his speech to the American Geophysical Union, Gov. Jerry Brown (D-CA) vowed to the crowd of climate scientists he will “fight” President-elect Donald Trump’s administration on climate change policy.

Brown said “So we’ve got the scientists, we’ve got the lawyers and we’re ready to fight, we’re ready to defend.”

On climate measuring satellites he added, “If Trump turns off the satellites, California will launch its own damn satellite.”
