It is clear. This global warming pact is to weaken our economy so developing countries can gain more wealth and lower us to equal third world countries. This is needed for a one world leader and one world government .
China can pollute the atmosphere as much as they want.We are hindered.

Since there is no significant anthropogenic global warming / climate change, nothing that BHO did, affected that which does not exist. Zero equals zero.

Carry on.

Would this count as proof to the OP? Curious folks would like to know.

Incorrect. China is well aware of its energy needs and dramatically investing in large-scale renewable energy installations. Price is continually dropping, coal is the more expensive source of energy to generate electricity. That is one of the reasons why coal is rapidly going away in the US because it can't compete and other sources are far cleaner and cheaper.

No, not action he took that is **supposed* to work one day...that **may** be good for the earth at some future point.....but actual, tangible, quantifiable proof that Barack Obama positively impacted our climate through his actions.

If you can't do that, then you have no business criticizing President Trump for reneging on agreements, rules, regulations, etc, that have no proven track record. Speculation is not good government, and crossing your fingers and wishing on a fantasy is not a good reason to admire Barack Obama's track record on the environment.
I heard he might have planted a tree once. Oh wait sorry i heard he smoked next to a tree once..sorry i got that confused.

The reason for coal is that other than nuclear,
Coal is the only consistent power source. It works regardless of time of day, weather, or time of year.

This is all so silly. The only thing that can end AGW is the extinction of the human race. Short of that, we're just talking about slowing the cumulative effect of human action unless and until we find new technologies. In the meantime, we should at least slow things down by stopping immigration from high-birth-rate countries to low-birth-rate ones.

Incorrect. Electric utilities know that coal is obsolete, that is why they are not building any new generating plants- moving to natural gas, wind, solar, and hydro. Businesses and consumers demand cleaner sources of energy as well. I also know what it's like to live on top of many coal power plants, it isn't good at all.
