Are we, or are we not, a sovereign nation?.
As has been mentioned already, no enforcement mechanism in the Accord, so no reason to do anything about the goals. Plus, the Accord wasn’t ratified anyway, so there’s question as to whether the US is even a party to the Accord.

How does this make sense? Obie didn’t get the approval of Congress. It’s not binding. Screw them.
It’s a “nonbinding” agreement
And we are not going to cripple our fossil fuel industry to meet goals no one else is close to reaching
Nor is the UN is any position to DEMAND we pay into a climate slush fund
The accord wasn’t Constitutionally legal to begin with, so the 2020 date is a moot subject.
Watch us, Europe.
Or else what? Double secret probation?
The Senate should have thought of all this before they ratified it. Oh, yeah, that’s right, they didn’t ratify it.
But they'll get it eventually...
B/S. When was this treaty ratified by the senate?
“Under the rules of the deal, which the White House says it will follow, the earliest any country can leave is Nov. 4, 2020.”
Seems to me that this is the operative question. Trump needs to say publicly if he indeed plans to wait 4 years to leave. And the collateral question should be will the US put in any money during the exiting process?
Why?!
BS. Cut the cash flow to Zer0, immedidetaly.
Says who?
We are out.
They can say we’re part of the club, but we have quit participating.
Fake News New York Times can fantasize all they want...they can even imagine Hitlery is in the White House.
Game over.
Period. Full stop.
How many divisions do the environmentalist wacjobs have?
Well, whether the “International Community” considers us part of the agreement until then, or not, matters very little.
Because we will not contribute, report on or adhere to ANY of it’s structure or demands.
Sorry - but one “President’s rules” have no binding mechanism on the next President - no formal ratification = no compulsion for compliance. They can “deem” Trump as still in, but the effect is the same....
The rest of the word calls it a treaty and there were mechanisms for getting out of it.
HOWEVER, the USA never ratified it. We are not bound by it. The whole world is very familiar with what it takes for America to be bound by a treaty. It is nothing more than an Obama promise and we can walk away cold turkey.
We are not obligated in any way to remain in it.
But nice try.
