The U.S. refused to sign onto a statement with other G7 countries to commit to the implementation of the Paris climate agreement, which President Donald Trump promised to withdraw from on the campaign trail.
Secretary of Energy Rick Perry said the U.S. is in the process of reviewing many of its policies and reserves its position on this issue, which will be communicated at a future date, Italys industry and energy minister Carlo Calenda said in a statement.
Calenda said other G7 members reaffirmed their commitment towards the implementation of the Paris Agreement to effectively limit the increase in global temperature well below 2°C above pre-industrial level.
The Trump administration would not sign onto a statement mentioning Paris, since the president is still deciding whether or not to keep his campaign pledge. Perry also wanted the G7 to include support for coal and natural gas in its statement.

Truth much?
She’s a lefty.
I’m glad he’s not listened to her for the vast majority of decisions except when she asked daddy to bomb away.
BUMP!!!
As long as it’s strong, but not scratchy. “CHARMIN’ Extra Stong” with the Paris Climate Accord printed on it. Maybe that fraud Prof from Penn State’s photo could be inserted every 5th square.
can you blame him? IF we lose this- we lose a huge battle- forever- once we sign- it’s over- it will be like roe vs wade- once done, almost entirely impossible to undo-
We’;ve lost one major battle after another with hte left- lies are now the ‘new truth’ men are women, women are men, people are ‘non people’ whatever the hel that means- the freakin world is exchanging the truth for a lie- and the left are getting very aggressive about forcing everyone to comply- and republicans time after time after time cave in to them
People are understandably nervous
thanx.
I read the article.
Perry is quoted...specifically asking for concessions.
Why ?
I would be making the same statement the writer made.
Bravo, Mr. President!!!!!
I understand that. But President Trump did not sign on with the G-7 as obummer had committed. What part of that isn't a success?
Why devote energy to something that hasn't happenened and may not?
I expect that he can kiss a 2nd term goodbye. Hope I am wrong about that.
Why, based of fake news?
President Trump should cut b o’s stated reductions by at least half. Pressure china to drastically reduce that country’s pollution by at least half, with NO “assistance” money received from the US.
That article seems to point to a real ideological divide in Trump’s team.
Not yet, if the article is true, then he is still deciding.
Global Warming on Free Republic here, here and here

Thank God.
Yes, there's no doubt that the cruise missile strike on Syria wouldn't have happened were it not for the fact that Ivanka was "heartbroken" over Assad's chemical attack...
