Trump Has Reportedly Decided To Pull Out Of Paris Climate Accord

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In yet another blow to President Obama’s utopian legacy, Axios is reporting that two sources with direct knowledge of the decision confirm President Trump has made his decision to withdraw from the Paris climate accord.

Having tweeted last week – after upsetting Merkel et al. at the G7…

It appears Trump has made his decision. Axios notes that details on how the withdrawal will be executed are being worked out by a small team including EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt. They’re deciding on whether to initiate a full, formal withdrawal — which could take 3 years — or exit the underlying United Nations climate change treaty, which would be faster but more extreme.

Trump’s decision reportedly follows a letter from 22 Republican Senators (including Mitch McConnell) that called for a clean exit had reinforced Trump’s instincts to withdraw, and the president had been telling confidants over the past week that he was going to pull out.

“Because of existing provisions within the Clean Air Act and others embedded in the Paris Agreement, remaining in it would subject the United States to significant litigation risk that could upend your Administration’s ability to fulfill its goal of rescinding the Clean Power Plan. Accordingly, we strongly encourage you to make a clean break from the Paris Agreement.”

Trump joins Nicaragua and Syria as the 3 nations that are not supportive of the climate accord, and as Axios concludes, pulling out of Paris is the biggest thing Trump could do to unravel Obama’s climate legacy. It sends a combative signal to the rest of the world that America doesn’t prioritize climate change and threatens to unravel the ambition of the entire deal.

      I am shocked only 3 nations are against the climate change hoax. Hopefully Trump’s excellent choice will start a domino effect….

    • ElOregonian

      This whole “Global Warming” hoax was a profit deal from the very beginning. You know it was a joke when VP Al Gore was circling all over the globe in a fuel-guzzling private jet, his giant McMansion that costs a year’s wages of you or I, to heat or to cool it, each month.

      This whole lie was strictly to rob you of your wealth. There was no real science used, because if there were, the true science would reveal that the opposite was/ and is occurring.

      Plus, this way TPTB can exert control over the citizenry and subject them to financial abuse through phony taxes and penalties, or reward those that “Play Ball” with tax credits and preferable treatment when divvying up the ill-gotten stolen profits.

    • Boo

      I have to go with the science on this. Geology, northern and southern hemisphere ice core samples, solar cycles and reports from historical documentation. Climate change is cyclical. Has little to do with man. But we will from time feel the heat and cold in the extreme and the side effects that spin off from them.
