Yes, the Paris Agreement would have prevented the Flint Water Disaster.

Liberals are fond of conflating numerous unrelated issues to attempt to prove their idiotic theories.

Listen, Aunt Jemima, pulling out of the Paris treaty will have minimal to zero negative impact on the environment, but might save some jobs in your community.

"Many cities have adopted climate change plans, Chicago has the Chicago Climate Action Plan with accessible information on what the city is doing to hold itself and businesses responsible for a healthier environment."

But blacks continue to slaughter each other there every week. You undermine your own argument, moron.

As usual, her argument is of the " 'X' be ray-ciss " template, where X = capitalism.

” .... issues of environmental injustice towards African Americans. “

Just more victimhood.

END OF THE WORLD TOMORROW!
Women and minorities hardest hit...!

Tell everyone who objects to the Trump withdrawal that there is nothing that says we can’t stop pollution WITHOUT this stupid money and power grab Paris climate deal.

The vast majority of blacks living in the utopia of Africa and Haiti would love to trade their place and come live in America with all its industrial toxins and pollutants.

So much for her argument about environmental injustice.

It’s so beyond the normal rules of logic, so utterly silly and crazy I just had to read it to see how anybody could actually come to such a blatantly bizarre conclusion. It boggles my mind just attempting to actually apply any reasons to her arguments!

As a woman of color living in a post-industrial city, I know all too well the degradation that unchecked industry imparts on living systems; both nature and people. Brown bodies breathe and ingest industrial toxins and pollutants, our food grows adjacent landfills and manufacturing plants all the while living in generational poverty.

STOP voting Democrat! Get out from under the foot! You living standards would not come from the Paris Bogus Climate Agreement! It has to come from the State and local governments you elect.

Sticking poor Blacks with confiscatory utility bills for such a worthy cause sounds great.

"our food grows adjacent landfills and manufacturing plants"

What is her evidence for this? The food that Americans eat comes from the same sources, and is not segregated along racial lines. The carrots that a black person buys come from the same place as carrots purchased by whites; the pineapples come from the same place, and so on.

The vast majority of food consumed by both blacks and whites is produced in rural areas, rarely near landfills, and typically far from manufacturing plants, unless you want to play games and call a food-processing plant a "manufacturing plant."

This woman is right: whenever I go to the store, there are two options for every food item: a polluted, poisoned version for blacks, and a healthy version for whites. The label on the can makes it quite clear which is which. I see this in all major brands: Hunts, Kraft, Del Monte, Kellogg’s - all of them. /sarc

The lead in the water is due to stupidity and incompetence. By the way, most of the food that she buys in grocery stores is grown in places other than where she resides.

So does this mean that African Americans cannot handle climate change as well as other people? Does mean they are inferior?
