"Many of Trump's cabinet appointments have publicly expressed these kinds of opinions that disagree with scientific consensus, that disagree with the experts, and we are voicing our rejection of those nominations,” an organizer with the climate action group said. /CFP Photo

As a result, they rallied to urge lawmakers to reject Trump's cabinet nominees including Rex Tillerson, CEO of Exxon, for Secretary of State; Scott Pruitt for EPA Administrator; Ex-Gov. Rick Perry for Secretary of Energy; and Rep. Ryan Zinke to lead the Interior Department. /CFP Photo
