The national government of the United States has walked away from international climate action by announcing its intention to withdraw from the Paris Agreement — ICLEI and its network has not.

ICLEI is the only local government network that is accredited as observer at the three Rio Conventions, namely UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) under which the Paris Agreement was adopted; the UN Convention on Biodiversity (CBD); and the UN Convention on Desertification (UNCCD).

ICLEI actively participates in the negotiation and implementation of international climate issues under these Conventions, representing the local and regional perspective.

The Paris Agreement is the continued formal recognition of the key role of local and sub-national governments in tackling climate change following the COP16 held in Cancun in 2010, where this was first achieved. The Local Governments and Municipal Authorities (LGMA) Constituency at the UNFCCC, led by ICLEI as constituency focal point, have been instrumental in this achievement.

U.S. local governments will continue to work with and for their citizens to curb GHG emissions and build healthy, resilient communities through global initiatives such as the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy and platforms such as the carbonn Climate Registry.

Well, I didn't see a list here but there are further details of the subversive nature of the whole thing. So, who, what supreme power, is it that "accredits" these assclowns anyway? Some self appointed poobah behind the great un curtain?

U.S. local governments will continue to send money to socialist countries, and dumb down their economies for mindless pseudo science. They drank the cool-aid and believe that you are causing global warming even though there is no connection between mankind and climate change.

Those “local governments” can ask their voters to approve massive tax increases to pay for their “climate change” crap.

The locals just (last [s]election) voted to bump our sales tax up to 8.125% for the schools of course. Latest reports, school funding is still falling WAY short of what’s ‘needed’. Well of course. Maybe we should bump up our property taxes next time around. Fidiots. Me and Mrs rktman didn’t vote for the bump.
