Trump Withdraws from Paris Climate Accord

[Raptor Witness 2,473]

I don't think Donald Trump chose the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season, to make this announcement, by accident.

The United States is now officially at war with the Earth.

[kartikg 1,532]

[aztek 24,529]

just because we are not there anymore does not mean we all of a sudden lowering our emission standards,

How many cities in the US are so polluted you need a mask to get through the day?

Mexico city:



Hong Kong:

Tired of the "greenest" nations being squeezed even harder. We're over here being forced to pay in to "carbon taxes" and hybrid cars while every one else doesn't give a hoot about the environment.

[Lilly 34,336]

Considering that China and India are polluting the Earth with impunity and reckless abandon, Trump probably isn't even on the Earth's radar.

Mass extinction of the human race!   Oh the drama!

If you are really concerned buy your own green offset land.  just assume you need need x amount of land and buy it.  Detroit land is totally cheap. just buy it and do nothing with it it will revert to vegetation.

China and India are working on changing, the problem is massive populations and p*** poor infrastructure. The US having good infrastructure (supposedly) should be leading the way rather then claiming its all fake science and relying on literally medieval technology (burning coal). 

 

Mind you, I can't really speak, we're one of, if not the, leading exporter of Coal and have just sold prime farming land to an Indian businessmen who is under investigation in India, in order to pay him billions so he can build a coal mine that'll make him more money.... ohh and create 3000 jobs.

i assume if land is in city limits it has to be developed, or city will fine you up the anus if you do not, or just take it from you using eminent domain laws

No, not here anyway. We just saved 53 acres from an extremely destructive developer. We now have a new pocket park in the city. We are also known as a Tree City, which they have been bound and determined to deny us of any longer with their irresponsible building practices. 

That was a fight they didn't expect to lose.

On the theory that the mainstream media can only handle one 'big story' at a time, either this will be a two-day wonder, or Russian collusion will suddenly be a non-event.

This whole thing is merely a deflection from the ever-widening Russia investigation!

I'm vacationing, so can someone give me a brief summary of what this really means?   

I know it looks bad on the surface - Pulling out of a Global Climate Agreement.
