And never mind that according to the NASA satellite data we have had zero warming for the last 15 or so years.

Less than a week after Election Day, Donald Trump is already trying to figure out how he can pull the United States out of the historic Paris climate deal as quickly as possible.

Not a problem. It was never ratified by the Senate. Therefore there is no agreement by the United States. What President Trump will need to do is direct the Executive Department to cease any and all implementation of the agreement as it is illegal.

You should look up how many agreed with it. It is something lile 12 or 14. No really 12 or 14 agreed.

Greenland used to be a Green Land; that’s how it got its name.

I've heard that Erik the Red named it Greenland as a PR move to get more Norse to move there. It probably wasn't much different than now, but it got a lot colder in the Little Ice age that eventually ended their colony.

Is there anything to pull out of?

1. The Senate never ratified it, so it's not a binding treaty.

2. The way I read it, Paris just says each country will do whatever it feels like to reduce carbon emissions. They didn't really agree to anything. But a good time has been had by all in meetings at some of the most luxurious hotels in Europe.

There’s nothing to withdraw from, the United States never agreed to it in the first place. Obama had no legal authority to sign the agreement and it required Senate confirmation, which was never done.

The union bosses speak

Another instance where the union brass and the rank and file probably don't agree.

If 180 countries equals 2 degrees of warming, then 179 countries equals 2.01 degrees of warming. Science.

Ever since the election, the dems, the media and the establishment in the GOP have been spitting words that reek of old corrupt ways, that had become a habit. Habits are hard to break... President Trump is not one of them and they are having fits. I truly believed in Trump since he came on board.. but this is even better than I believed.. it’s a miracle. He is not afraid of them.. he is fast, determined and he’s doing such a bang up job of this... I am so impressed and so pleased! compared to the NEW.. the old looks even more past due.. IF you on the left can muster a look see.. look and see that it is GOOD... God Bless President Trump!

Greenland worked for the Vikings until with gradual GLOBAL COOLING they were unable to harvest enough animal feed during summer to sustain them in winter

“Trump considers global warming a hoax, despite an overwhelming consensus from climate scientists who say that climate change is both real and man-made.”

If you have consensus you don’t have science.

Kanye is really praising Trump these days. Of course, he is very likely bipolar
