[lewis111]

This is just unbelievable that the president of the US would do this. Wtf even is that country any more

[Kazanne]

Well I'm not a Trumpet,but he did say they will TRY and make a deal,whatever that means

[Liberty4eva]

I hope Trump destroys this global government being shoved down our throats. This is a step in the right direction.

So called man made climate change is a hoax and a fraud by China to destroy the western economies.

So called climate scientists saying otherwise are secret communist agents, spies and traitors :shocked: :mad:

Trump has said so, so it must be true.

If Trump says 1+1=3 then 1+1 absolutely =3

After all the first three letters in Trump are also in Truth, True, Trust, Trustworthiness

How can you ignore that? What more do you need

Now I just need to take my meds... :joker: :crazy:

[Kazanne]

He did say he wanted a fairer deal for the US and they may go back in, so I don't think we need to panic yet

[Wizard.]

Funny thing is, they technically can't withdraw until 2020 because of the contract and the notice period and by then the US would have had another presidential election :hee:

What future - there won't be much of one for Britain If Labour get their mits on our economy.

[Brillopad]

That depends on one's definition and idea of the term progressive. Using the word doesn't mean you have it in the bag - try as you might to imply you do. :joker:

[lewis111]

Global warming is a much bigger issue for our future than a slightly worse off economy

[DemolitionRed]

puts Brillo on ignore because this is getting childish.

Can you just take yourself off repeat and make a post related to the subject of the actual thread rather than this campaign of yours?

Yes true

[Sticks]

There are some in the religious right who maintain that Global Man made climate change is NOT happening because it is unscriptural.

God promised he would never destroy the world in a flood again, and rising see levels contradict God's promise, so Global warming is therefore a lie and fraud by Satan. :devil:

Now from what I understand, the Trustworthy Trusty, Truthful Trump has a lot of support from the religious right, going from what a lot of my "facebook friends" from the US who are in the US version of church grouping I am in.

[Ronald.]

What a shame. Big mistake Donald. R.

[Cherie]

Wasn't it one of his election promises? So you could argue he is giving the people who voted him what they wanted I suppose, signing up and actually doing something are two different things anyway

[lewis111]

He said "I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris," :umm2:

It's getting more and more scary that this lunatic is president

Isn't that true though? I'm not a Trump fan but he is an American politician. He is focusing on the people he represents while we are used to the President's of the past focusing on leading the rest of the world. It's different. How do we know he hasn't been advised that he can get a much better deal for his country.

Is it really wrong to focus on his own people?

I can't personally say I don't know enough about the deal or what he feels isn't in the US best interest about it to really judge. Does anyone else know all the details?

[Kizzy]

So? Politicians lie, we know they lie, we expect them to lie. we want them to lie, lying is good, telling the truth is bad, all hail big brother

[DemolitionRed]

He's focussing on the religious fraternity... those who voted him in and the ones who believe what will happen will happen because Jesus said so but he's doing this at the expense of the world.

The UK started following Trumps policy recently by underfunding green energy and putting plans in place to frack the guts out of our green and pleasant land.

Oh I totally agree that the US should be his priority and decisions he makes should put America first most of the time

However, the way he said that makes it sound like he thinks the agreement only
Helps people in Paris
Like he's saying why should I help the people I'm Paris? Does he not realise that this agreement will also help his own country in the long run

Corbyn's brother implied that Jeremy Corbyn was a secret climate-change sceptic or denier.

[Kizzy]

Of course, where was the media coverage of our time in the G7 another important event that meant an election campaign was a terrible idea, but it was a great excuse for hr to be absent from proceedings wasn't it? Leaving her minions in charge.

The one thing I did notice was it was well documented that Merkel had stated that relations between the US and Germany were strained... She actually said the US and the UK.
Meaning it was obvious at the G7 that May was aligning herself closer with Trump than the rest of the G7.

Exactly, like climate change is only happening outside of America or something? odd

I believe solar flares affect our weather, doesn't automatically follow you feel that is the only factor, just one...
Mind you this is nothing when you see our PM refusing to sign deals at the G7 on climate change, which means that she most definitely is a climate change skeptic.

But this is a nice piece of deflection, kudos to the BBC as per.

Oh the duplicity of politicians, Tsk.

Thanks for sharing, interesting.

[Alf]

I don' really get much about this, it just seems like a confidence trick to me.

What I can make out is, it costs trillions of dollars and many jobs to be sacrificed, to reduce the global temperature by 0.17 degrees, by the year 2100.

[Cherie]

So? Politicians lie, we know they lie, we expect them to lie. we want them to lie, lying is good, telling the truth is bad, all hail big brother

No idea what your point is?

If Downing Street said Mrs May had expressed her disappointment to Donald Trump over this, then that's it - end of story. Complaining that she didn't immediately begin agitating against the President's long-promised action, is basically complaining that she isn't like Jeremy Corbyn or other eco-activists in believing dogmatic political militancy on this issue can substitute for reasoned persuasion. America voted for Trump. If America doesn't want to make the sacrifice it believes the Paris treaty required, then that's the problem, not Trump specifically. There's an argument to be had here, not a self-evident righteous line to be toed. I'd rather Mrs May pursued the argument rather than copy Corbyn's posturing by sanctimoniously wagging his finger at Trump. Mouthing off might make some people feel better in themselves, but it won't actually achieve a damn thing.may has already expressed her views to Trump this morning,I see that was overlooked .
