When speaking of
building a wall, your first thought goes to the wall that Trump mentioned to
create on the border between America and Mexico. In fact, there is a second
wall that he has in mind to build. Less people would be affected by the wall
but the significance of this wall would be high as it would disprove the fact
that Trump denies climate change. The talk is of erecting a wall around Trumps luxury
golf resort in Doonbeg on the Irish West Coast, in County Clare.
During his election
campaign Trump repeatedly declared to not believe in climate change. His investment
plans concerning that resort show differently. Even though the Irish coast has
always been a rough one, locals have seen the storm washing away the coastline
as sea-levels rise due to global warming, based on research conducted for
several years. Irish supporters of the wall acknowledge the amount of jobs that
Trump provides on his resort. Others are concerned about sacrifice the environment
to secure a “playground for millionaires”.
