French President Emmanuel Macron issued a stark warning on climate change at a summit in Paris on Tuesday, telling world leaders we are losing the battle against global warming.
Were not moving fast enough, thats the problem, Macron told the One Planet Summit called to boost the 2015 Paris climate accord, which US President Donald Trump has renounced.
We must all act because we will all be held to account, Macron told the gathering on an island in the River Seine, adding: We cannot say we did not know.
Dozens of world leaders and hundreds of ministers, company bosses, and environmentalists attended the meeting held two years to the day since 195 nations sealed the Paris Agreement on curbing emissions.
The absence of the US was keenly felt at the talks, which focused on boosting investment in green energy and divesting from fossil fuels.

Oh boo-hoo! Theyre only complaining because theres no US money being dumped into this fraud. Its all about the benjamins not climate.
News flash, frenchies: global warming is fake
Read: Crap, we’re not going to get their money this year.....
This is a great example of left wing hypocrisy. Dont invite them and then complain when they dont show up. If they do show up theyre crashing the party.
If I remember correctly, we were going to send reps but not the President so that we know what’s going down. Besides, they already got billions from Obama.

By act, do they mean get the US to pay for the great ideas that none of them are required to implement?
That’s what they always mean. They’ve meant that since the 1950s, even before the “climate change” scam and back during Bretton-Woods.
Yes without US taxpayers who is going to give Pakistan hundreds of millions to invest in “ green energy”? ( which actually passes into loan payments to the imf and world bank)
Its a big scam
Thank you President Trump
I’m still waiting for someone to educate me on what effects money will have on the large star at the center of our solar system.
Good!! Enough of gouging the US to fund crazy schemes.. thats really all the GW crap is about...
shut off and go home macaroon
Actually its a triumph and a refusal to be blackmailed and economically crippled.
Lol! A disgrace, to whom? I am not worried. Give France, and Europe for that matter, about 10 more years and they won’t be preaching Global Warming anyways.... It’ll be all about Allah or death.
I hope you don't mind me editing your dead-on comment:
Oh boo-hoo! Theyre only complaining because theres no, borrowed at the expense of our grandchildren, US money being dumped into this fraud. Its all about the benjamins not climate.
what? No one else there wants to pick up the tab?
Being at the conference - not absence from it - is a disgrace.
I appreciate the extension to our grandkids!
It’s very true and I thank you, sir!
It’s called leadership.
