He's dead set to undo every policy initiated under President Obama, no matter how disastrous and nonsensical.
Yes, even the most disastrous and nonsensical of Obama's policies need to be undone. If Trump only went after the reasonable policies of Obama, he wouldn't have anything to do.
Good.....why would anyone sign that agreement anyway? You let one of the most polluting country and give them years to even start.....while we have to begin? Kinda stupid to me.....just as the kyoto protocol was.....
I feel bad for the companies who had invested heavily in alternate energies, and they are voicing their disapproval. The nation has no course, when the government goes in one direction under one admin, and the opposite way under the next.
Your only mistake. Thinking the Paris Agreement was about protecting the environment. It wasn't.
Oh, yes it is.
When the crack in the south polar ice shelf finally splits, the fresh water it will release into the open ocean is going to change the seawater. The hunk that will go floating is the size of the entire northeast states combined.
That's going to kill off a lot of sea life. And it will raise the level of the Atlantic first, before eventually raising the level of the Pacific. One more inch of sea rise will be enough to put the cities that lie along the eastern seaboard under water. New York City all the way down to New Orleans could all become cities where boats will be needed to get around town, in streets that are 4 feet deep under water. Sorta like Venice.
No one knows yet how that much fresh water will do to earth's climate, but since fresh water is less dense than salt water, it's expected that the world's oceans will all heat up a few degrees- the fresh water will stay on the upper levels, and will keep the cold ocean from circulating upward.
A few degree is all it will take to turn the great prairies into great deserts. The Sahara was once all prairie. Once the topsoil blows away, a desert remains a desert forever. But no one can predict where the deserts will form, because this much ice has never broken off the pole in recorded history.
Humankind is in a race for survival. Those who don't realize a race is on will be left behind at the blocks. 200 other nations seem to be more aware of this than the United States.
But no one will be able to drop out of the race and go home, if they want a home to go home to.

If you depend on government subsidies to survive you are in a risky position.

The world will move forward on this.
Cities in the US will lead, seeing there is no leadership coming from anywhere else

It is delusional stuff like this that destroys the credibilty of the global alarmists.

They didn't depend on it. Many companies invested heavily in those industries, and they used their own money.
