The Trump administrations announcement that it would withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement is a largely symbolic move, but it is nevertheless another reminder of President Trumps greatest folly: his disgraceful denial of the threat posed by catastrophic climate change. No matter who wins the Democratic presidential nomination, Trumps open hostility toward any action on climate will elevate it to a defining issue in the 2020 campaign. Voters will choose between a president and Republican Party proud of systematic resistance to any action on climate, and a challenger and Democratic Party dedicated to historic efforts to limit the already costly threat to life as we know it.
Against this real and escalating threat, Trump aided and abetted by Republicans in Congress has pushed to roll back regulation after regulation to curb fossil-fuel emissions. The president has deep-sixed President Barack Obamas climate plan, rolled back automobile mileage standards and opened federal lands to fossil-fuel companies.
At a time when the international scientific community has concluded that we have 11 years to avert the worst of climate change, Trump and his Republican allies are working to intensify the threat, not deter it. A more egregious dereliction of duty is impossible to imagine. Trumps denial mirrors the story of Nero fiddling while Rome burns. Like Nero, Trump is helping set the flames. Democrats are raising the alarm. The contrast cannot be clearer.

Jeffrey Epstein didnt kill himself.

“The terms of the deal say no country can withdraw in the first three years. So
Monday is the first time the U.S. could actually start the withdrawal process,
which begins with a letter to the United Nations. And it doesnt become
official for a year after that,
BS! Tell them we are OUT and just to make sure they understand that word tell them that it applies to the entire UN organization. Give them 72 hours to vacate the country. Then Trump should terminate every Ex Order implementing UN Agenda 21/Sustainable Development policy starting with EO 12582.
That would be a most excellent start on MAGA!
another RED heard from, and ignored. More dangerous is her husband, former Prof. Stephen Cohen, who has been called the top Soviet apologist (i.e. disinformation spreader) in America (and than was back in the Wash. Post about 1981 or 1983.
That would be the UN since they create the laws of the sea (UNCLOS)

In the 1980s Ted Danson was saying that the oceans would be dead in 10 years. 30+ years later they still aren’t. He has since said that he needed the exaggerate the impact to get the public concerned about it.
SSDD.
