Earlier this week, Donald Trump notified the United Nations of his intention to pull America out of the most significant climate effort in history, the now-famous Paris Accord. It's a decision that has shocked millions with its short-sighted foolishness. That he chose to do this on the first day he could legally do so under the UN's rules for withdrawal simply reveals his immoral dedication to isolating us from the world community by willfully ignoring the biggest, most urgent threat facing human civilization.

Ah, our daily dose of advice from a mere actor.
Uh, no.
Wonder if his pal Jane Fonda asked him to do this?’
“Robert, either join me on Friday, ‘getting arrested’ at City Hall, or write an Op Ed about our beliefs. Check one box.”
When will you sell your homes and move into a cave, moron?
Funny that he thinks Trump pulling out of the Paris accord is causing a reversal of climate change. Something like 75% of the countries signed on to this non-binding agreement are not meeting their goals for CO2 reduction. Why would just the notice that Trump is pulling us out of the Paris accord cause a "reversal" of climate change? That's moronic. But then I digress. We talking about a big Lefty here.
I have read and listened to the economist Bjorn Lomborg, who believes in human caused climate change himself but argues that its impact is much less severe than the extremists make it sound. And that the enormous costs could be better spent on other world problems like poverty and potable drinking water.
This is not verbatim, but basically he has said that if ALL (not just some, but ALL) of the wealth available in the world were spent to fight climate change, it would have such a small impact that it would hardly be noticeable and that it would be a complete waste of the world's resources.
This is why so many people don't believe in climate change, or if they do, they are not willing to give up their modern lifestyles to make such small changes in the outcome.
The climate change fanatics like AO-C and Greta the Outraged, are trying to instill fear into the equation and people are just not buying it. The world is not going to implode in 12 more years if we don't commit to this Paris accord or this Green New Deal. Telling people they have to revert back to living in the Stone Age to save the planet is just not credible to most intelligent folks.
Redford's acting career is over and what better way to try and stay relevant than to follow another octogenarian, Jane Fonda, into the climate change morass and act like you are some sort of expert spokesperson for it. Or in Fonda's case, claim you are a climate scientist now, going around getting arrested for protesting inaction on climate change.
The two silver linings in this, is that both these idiots will be gone bye-bye soon. They're both in their 80s.
Now, he's not even that.
No, no, NOOOOOOO !!! Ski season is just getting underway, and only 11.22 years left to enjoy it ... why would you want to take away ski season from us conservatives who enjoy it? Just to punish Robert Redford and his elite ilk? Not fair, not fair, NOT FAIR !!! ....
Besides, some chair lifts still run on diesel motors in the wheelhouse ....
... and .. and ... and ... I love Artichokes !!!
Why are you tormenting me ??? /grin
FU Robby.
Hey, Bob, go jump off a cliff. Oh, wait........
He is an important person so he can use more CO2 than a thousand serfs.
I want to see the list of the ‘damage’ the Pres has done.
Other than calling the ‘rat’s bluff and refusing to roll over and gulp like all the other Repubs have done in the past , I’ll bet the list is inconsequential fluff.
“”Earlier this week,””
I thought this was done a long time ago when he first came into office. What’s with the current date?
Well Bob we elected Donald Trump to do exactly what he did. Get us out of a ridiculous and useless treaty. Also Bob, we did not elect you to anything so your opinion is just that your opinion!
Blah, blah, blah...
Poor whiny babies. You aren’t getting your own way so every one else is wrong and you are right... boo hoo babies...
Just think how many more of the socialist BS one world ignorance that Trump will tear down in the next five years?
I always enjoy winning.
Look, Redford was gorgeous at one time.
Sorry, but now he looks like the Picture of Dorian Gray.
The actual picture of Dorian Gray, not the book or the movie.
He is the first star who became so ugly when aging and I mean physically ugly, although the heart and soul follows.
Why is it that so many celebrities think climate change is our #1 problem & yet the sensible people have it at the bottom of the list of concerns? Only reason I can think of is the normal person has no means of making money off of it.
When the homeless and the illegals are at his front gate he will be running to his safe room to cry
