Trump Administration Won’t Withdraw from Paris Climate Deal
Wall Street Journal ^ | 9/16/2017 | Emre Peker

NEW YORK—Trump administration officials said Saturday the U.S. wouldn’t pull out of the Paris Agreement, offering to re-engage in the international deal to fight climate change, according to the European Union’s top energy official.

The shift from President Donald Trump’s decision in June to renegotiate the landmark accord or craft a new deal came during a meeting of more than 30 ministers led by Canada, China and the European Union in Montreal.

“The U.S. has stated that they will not renegotiate the Paris accord, but they will try to review the terms on which they could be engaged under this agreement,” European Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy Miguel Arias Cañete said.

Keep in mind the media will spin ANYTHING to separate Trump from his supporters.

The Paris accord is a salve for the perpetual “warmist” idiots who don’t understand science or facts. Sheesh!

I don’t believe this.

They are spinning this, hoping it will become true, and trying to paint Trump into a corner.

“but they will try to review the terms on which they could be engaged under this agreement”

That is a position of not being part of it. We are currently not engaged.

The story is more crappy #fakenews.

Hope this is completely Fake News. I wonder how Bill Mitchell is gonna spin this one if it’s true as being 297D chess. Yesterday that clown was promoting the idea of trading tax cuts for Amnesty

People need to learn to think! The US is currently not engaged, that means we are NOT PART OF IT. The article is pure #fakenews crap.

This is not something that can be spun - either we pull out of the Paris deal, as Trump promised during the campaign, or we don't.

It’s not a shift. Trump has previously openly supported the Climate Change hoax.

Better not be true...unless he wants to swap out his rally crowds with Democrats. However, while the moderates may support him, he’ll lose his conservative base, and the Democrats will vote Democrat for Harris, Warren, Sanders, etc.

I’d trade tax cuts + massive wall fully funded for amnesty for DACA only for people that can prove they speak fluent English and have a high school diploma or better (or on track for such)
