    Wow, reading up a bit about the agreement and the sounds like the Paris Accord is a lot of words, posturing and bullshit with USA paying for most of the bill. Reverend Obama didn't even pass the cost through Congress, who actually cuts the checks!

    Apparently the cutbacks on emission won't even make a big degree of change, even China and India aren't paying into it and they are huge polluters...

    Americans Will Pay Billions for a Useless Climate Agreement

    'Determined to display “leadership,” President Obama made the classic mistake of the kid who hears everyone is going skinny-dipping, strips naked, plunges into the water, and then turns to find his dry and still-modest peers laughing from the shore as they run off with his clothes. While everyone else both literally and figuratively mailed in their commitments, the president pledged a dramatic reduction in U.S. emissions: 26 to 28 percent below their 2005 level by 2025. To further grease the skids of international diplomacy, he committed the United States to lead the transfer of $100 billion in annual “climate finance” from the developed world to the developing countries that are pledging nothing.'

    • So it was a "dramatic reduction" or not a big degree of change?yuekit
    • Of course like Trump himself I'm sure you didn't bother to look into the issue beyond copy pasting an article.yuekit
    • It's really sad how every right-winger in America now views taking action on climate change as a partisan issue. So fucking stupid..yuekit
