Trump pulling out of Paris Climate Accord

[task0778]

Mankind was always going to destroy itself regardless. Now it will just be sooner rather than later.

How does backing out of this accomplish that?

It gives cover to all other nations, China for example, to burn (that oil) baby burn.

Which they are going to do anyway.

Potentially but - now for sure.

The funniest thing about it the left can't blame it on big oil like ExxonMobil, they are against Trump pulling out


Lmfao




.

Nope. The only person to blame is Trump himself. What an ignorant old man he is turning out to be.

What are you talking about? Obama went around Congress, live by the EO die by the EO



.

Keep politics out of this, Bear. This is more important than that. There's only one planet. We were given the brains to figure out how to fix our mistakes. Why don't you want to?

 

[basquebromance]

he needs to pull out of the Iran deal. he needs to pull out of the Iran deal.

 

[TNHarley]

It may (?) be constitutional for the President to make these kinds of deals, but I think anything that requires commitments to spend our tax dollars ought to be approved by Congress.

circular 175 procedure would determine if it was a "treaty" or not. Treaties MUST go through congress according to Article 2 section 2.
In fact, I have read about some agreement from the executive branch to congress that they would go through them before climate agreements. Targets and timetables and such. That agreement was made so that UNSCC would get ratified.

 

[basquebromance]

when he's pulling out of Paris anyway...

 

[Iceweasel]

The ignorance is all yours. The climate hoax is all about global socialism and some of us want no part of it. You may not like that but you have no power and authority to dictate what other people care about. I know that's a big hurdle for your kind.

We have plenty of emission and environment protection systems in place, perhaps too much. We are doing our part and we do not need to pay for some other country to do their part.

 

[TNHarley]

The fact is that anthropogenic climate change is a theory, a theory that is very popular among uninformed masses and scientist who make a living researching and writing about it. Making dramatic changes to our economic structure which will harm an already stressed and shrinking middle class is very reckless.

How would we ever survive (if we had to have cars that get 40 MPG and free power from the sun)?

Yes, because its that simple..

 

[Rustic]

The US participation in such a thing is not necessary… Fact

The whole thing is political... lol
Obama skirted the law. Fact
How is us pulling out of this going to hurt us? How is it going to slow down R&D?

Politics about this was left out of the bag decades ago..

Social warriors like Naomi klien admitted it ..all about "social economic change"

Trump pulling U.S. out of Paris climate deal: Axios report

WASHINGTON U.S. President Donald Trump has decided to withdraw from the Paris climate accord, Axios news outlet reported on Wednesday, citing two unidentified sources with direct knowledge of the decision.

Trump who has previously called global warming a hoax, refused to endorse the landmark climate change accord at a summit of the G7 group of wealthy nations on Saturday, saying he needed more time to decide. He then tweeted that he would make an announcement this week.

Fox News also cited an unidentified source confirming the pullout.
The decision to withdraw from the climate accord was influenced by a letter from 22 Republican U.S. senators, including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, calling for an exit, Axios reported.

Good!
Shit wasn't even voted on. Remember Earnests words in 2015?
I think it’s hard to take seriously from some Members of Congress who deny the fact that climate change exists, that they should have some opportunity to render judgment about a climate change agreement
One of the biggest loads of partisan bullshit I have ever heard. He should have been shunned for that
Oh well

Bad.
I hope the anonymous sources are wrong. This is going to be bigger than Russia for 48 hours. You watch.

I don't think so. The media Russia lie has been going for over 6 months without one piece of evidence. No telling how long this latest lie will run, and no telling how many gullible fools, once having seen it "on tv", will swear by it.

Give me a single example of free power from the sun that can be used to replace carbon based energy.

Well it's not going to get any easier if we don't get started. Norway is now 50% electric cars. 80% of their power is hydroelectric. Now they're a lot smaller than us; I get that. But it can be done.

Got it. I'm saying we should treat it as a de facto treaty whether it meets the definition or not if it requires the US to pass laws or standards and spend money on compliance. I think the power of the Executive Branch is a little too strong and ought to be tempered by Congress and the Courts when appropriate.

R&D flourishes when our backs are up against the wall. We've known the good side of solar and wind power since the 60's. Nothing was done on any scale because it wasn't profitable. It will remain that way unless it's something companies are pressured to convert to.

People ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT when people SKIRT THE LAW when they AGREE with it.
Absolutely pathetic. Integrity is LOST.
