When President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the Paris climate agreement, he acted in concert with 22 Republican senators, who collectively receive $10,694,284 in contributions from the coal and oil industries.
These 22 senators wrote to Trump, asking him to pull out of the accord. The president and the senators put their own political and economic interests above the safety, security and indeed survival of the American people and the entire planet.
The climate accord is a landmark deal, in which 195 countries responsible for 95 percent of carbon emissions worldwide agreed to voluntarily reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in order to slow down global warming. Under the pact, the Obama administration promised to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 26 percent to 29 percent lower than 2005 levels by 2025.
But according to the Rhodium Group, Trumps new policies will only cut emissions 15 percent to 19 percent below 2005 levels by 2025, considerably lower than the commitment made by the Obama administration.

Trump indeed wants to "Make America Great Again" and put the US interests first.
Well looks like the Russian narrative is off for now ......
Another far left “Journ-O-List” who should be “impeached” for #FakeNews
HuffPo is loaded with amateurs who can’t get a real job
Trump’s breathing is an impeachable offense to these azzhat lib snowflakes.
0bama’s every waking moment was an impeachable ‘offense’. So there.
An “impeachable offense” is whatever Congress decides it is. Nothing more, and nothing less. Congress has never removed a President from office.
Which country controls the volcanoes?
Idiots.
Nonsense. This was a lousy deal. Democrats are morons.
This was written by a law professor. Apparently pulling laws from out of her tuckus.
Russian Collusion
Comey
Paris Treaty
HuffPo re-defines STUPID every day.
The Democrats and RINOs do not want growth for us business, a health care fix, rule of law-not men, industry, infrastructure, military, help for vets, educated people, and self-reliance.
They want death all around, including to the US.
in order to support the claim of an Impeachable Offense by removing the US from the Paris Climate Accord, they will first need to prove conclusively that Climate Change is real and is caused by humans. Good luck with that, MORONS.
Author and political hack Marjorie Cohn.
Well, good luck to those poor deluded bastards trying to win with that legal theory.
BullObama.
I love how uneducated these clowns canbe.
Oh, Marjorie, don’t you know that Leftist who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones?
If you want to start laying blame on Republicans for taking money, then you’d better darn be good and ready to get taken to the woodshed by us on the Right who have watched Democrats get bought off and rich off Big Pharma, Big Oil, Big Banking, etc.
Trump decided that he wasn't interested in 0's agreement. End of story.
If Trump can be impeached for pulling out of the agreement, 0 could have been impeached for entering into the agreement.
