Germany is so close to having a working fusion reactor they don't care about fossil fuels anymore.

Why should they 'renegotiate' the Paris Agreement simply because the U.S. left it?
Regardless of the weak, horribly belated efforts to combat man-made climate change, it still doesn't change the simple physics:
Energetic radiation radiates from the Sun's surface.
Some of this radiation reaches the Earth, penetrates the atmosphere, and is absorbed by the surface of the Earth.
Less energetic radiation radiates from the Earth's surface.
Some of that less energetic radiation is absorbed and re-emitted by greenhouse gases.
More greenhouse gases means more heat redistribution nearer to the surface.
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
We are increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
You do understand what an agreement is, right? Both parties must agree, yes?
Obeyme left a sour taste in America's mouth and Trump is the mouthwash.

Nonsense, three days isn't long enough to tell anything and those studies were bunk anyways. Get it out of your head that they have any meaning.
When 9/11 happened, all planes were grounded for several days.

And don't forget the off setter, the rain forest. And the gulf stream and acid rain and... etc.
I don't understand how the Accord works if we pay for most of it, some of the worst offenders wont commit to carbon level/temperature reduction. And if you believe science, if we cut to zero today, we're still goin in the oven before things get better. I think our only hope is technology and there's enough energy left to populate other planets. The population issue isn't getting any better either.
The science does not say were are going in an oven.

Off course it's bullsht , this man single handily destroyed American credibility, this kind of jaw dropping stupidity, is difficult for American expats to explain to our host countries.. Sigh!!..
They're not interested in saving the world from the dangers of C02 now? interesting, maybe they don't think it's the clear and present danger that the MSM has led us to believe?
