Michael Moore on Paris accord: Trump ‘committed a crime against humanity’
The Hill ^ | June 1, 2017 | Mark Hensch

Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore blasted President Trump's decision Thursday to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement, calling it “a crime against humanity.”

"This admitted predator has now expanded his predatory acts to the entire planet," Moore tweeted.

“USA to Earth: F--- YOU,” the filmmaker added in other tweets. “America First! Earth Last! My name is Michael Moore. I am an American. And I live in a Rogue State.”

Trump announced Thursday that his administration would withdraw from the Paris climate deal, fulfilling a pledge from his 2016 presidential campaign.

“In order to fulfill my solemn duty to protect America and its citizens, the United States will withdraw from the Paris climate accord,” Trump said in remarks from the White House Rose Garden.

“The bottom line is that the Paris accord is very unfair at the highest level to the United States," he said. "We are getting out, but we will start to negotiate and we will see if we can make a deal that is fair."

Trump’s move puts the U.S. at odds with nearly 200 other nations that cooperated on the world’s first major agreement aimed at tackling climate change in 2015. The decision is also a major rebuke of former President Barack Obama’s environmental agenda after he led global negotiations on the non-binding pact.

The agreement consisted of individual greenhouse gas limits that each signatory nation determined for themselves.

Obama pledged that the U.S., currently the No. 2 emitter worldwide, would cut greenhouse gas emissions 26 to 28 percent by 2025.

Placing bets on who makes the most outrageous declaration on the Paris Accord in the next few days. Odds on Maxine Waters.
In the running:
schumer, pelosi, clinton, gore.

Do people like him think that ISIS men who decapitate victims and blow people up commit crimes against humanity???

If he would agree that ISIS is evil, is pulling out of a questionable agreement really on the same level as slaughter of innocents????

The hyperbole gets absurd. While people can disagree and debate what we should do about global warming, is it really sensible to call Trump’s action a crime against humanity???

The Paris Accord is not even trying to lower pollution. They are trying to slightly slow its growth at the expense of trillions of dollars. Its stupid even if you believe in climate change.

Obama pledged that the U.S., currently the No. 2 emitter worldwide, would cut greenhouse gas emissions 26 to 28 percent by 2025.

Obama chose the % and voluntarily, unilaterally, committed to cripple our economy and throw millions of Americans into poverty to achieve this meaningless goal...to lower temperature by 0.2 degrees (if you believe their false models)

Let this sink in. How much does Obama hate this Nation???

There is nothing preventing any leftist business in the U.S. or anywhere else in the world from reducing its own greenhouse gas emissions without the need for the Paris Accord.

Come on lefties, lead by example. I frickin’ dare you!

Michael Moore has know one to blame but himself. His wonderful speech in Ohio put Trump over the top. Suck it up Mikey!

This global warming hysteria always cracks me up. Too many people have become ignorant, naive, and stupid to realize the insignificance of it all. CO2 is only 400 parts per million of the total atmosphere, or 4/100th of a percent. The CO2 released by coal, oil and gas is less than 1% of the total CO2 in the atmosphere. This means that the Paris Agreement only addresses less than 4/10,000th of 1% of the total atmosphere. Nothing from nothing is still nothing.

To Maxine "Shallow" Waters, Trump's waking up in the morning is an impeachable offense!
