Trump looking for way out of climate deal

Posted by | November 13, 2016 07:55 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics

We’d be one of the few nations not participating.

…Trump is seeking quick ways of withdrawing from a global agreement to limit climate change, a source on his transition team said, defying widening international backing for the plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

Since the U.S. President-elect was chosen, governments ranging from China to small island states have reaffirmed support for the 2015 Paris Agreement at 200-nation climate talks running until Nov. 18 in Marrakesh, Morocco.

Trump, who has called global warming a hoax and has promised to quit the Paris Agreement, was considering ways to bypass a theoretical four-year procedure for leaving the accord, according to the source, who works on Trump’s transition team for international energy and climate policy.

    The world should boycott America if we back out of the climate deal.

    • Suzanne McFly November 13th, 2016 at 09:00

      No matter what, we are all going to hurt while this person in in charge.

    It would help climate warming if he could just keep his mouth shut.

    Remember, this is the idiot who thought, and said publicly, that his sealed apartment would keep the CFC’s in his hair spray from entering the atmosphere. That’s equivalent to Inhofe’s snowball in the Senate trick. The really sad part is, we have complete ignoramuses like this making policies that affect us all for generations.

      I always thought that what that speech needed was for him to get beaned with a snowball, and the senate cameras pan to show another senator ducking down behind a desk…

      • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 10:57

        But with a rock inside it.

      • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 11:36

    In Miami Florida at high tide the Atlantic ocean is coming up the drain sewers. In fact they are spending $500 million just to raise the streets. There is no doubt this is happening because of the warming of the ocean. Warm water expands. And of course all that ice melt.

    Florida voted yes for the orange pumpkin head.

    Chickens, meet Colonial Sanders.

    • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 10:08

      The Army Corps of Engineers has for years been fighting a losing battle, shoring up the eroded beaches all along the Atlantic Coast. That’s like trying to stop a volcanic explosion. Which the Italian Air Force tried to do once, and of course it failed.

      • anothertoothpick November 13th, 2016 at 10:39

        Yeah I believe you Larry.

        I was just reading a book about the 1920’s and it talked about the great land rush in Florida. Land developers basically filled up a swamps with sand and sold off lots by the thousands. Miami was just a huge swamp 4 feet above sea level.

        In 1925 People were sending down payments on lots sight unseen from newspaper advertisements.

        These lots turned out to be like that game the kids play were if the music stops and you don’t have a chair to sit in you are out.

        Well the music stopped and if you had a lot, you were stuck with it hahahahahah….

        By the way that is were the saying “I’d like to sell you a swampland in Florida” came from.

        • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 10:43

          South Florida was never intended for millions of people to live right on the coast, any more than the Mississippi River floodplain was. Whenever we try to f*ck with Mother Nature, the same thing happens, every time. We come out second. And humans have the worst combination of traits. We’re both stupid and stubborn.

          • anothertoothpick November 13th, 2016 at 10:53

            I got a friend that is thinking about buying a house in Florida to retire.

            When I tell him how risky that is he says “But I want to buy on the gulf side”.

            And I look at NOAH map pojections and it turns out the gulf side will be just as flooded if not more.

            • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 10:54

              The water doesn’t know, or care, which side it’s on. Rising water levels are global.

              • anothertoothpick November 13th, 2016 at 11:02

                Hahahahahahah…..

                Oh by the way the guy that wants to retire in Florida voted for trump.

              • StoneyCurtisll November 13th, 2016 at 11:29

                Oh come on Larry, the new reality is that global warming/climate change is just a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese..
                Welcome to Trump World~!

                • Hirightnow November 13th, 2016 at 12:43

                  What if global warming/climate change is real, but the Chinese just wanted Donald Trump to think that it was a hoax?
                  Oh, those crafty Chinese……

                  • StoneyCurtisll November 13th, 2016 at 13:18

                    I smell a dirty yella commie rat…:)

                    • Hirightnow November 13th, 2016 at 13:25

                      Thar’s only one thing worse than a dirty yella commie rat, and that’s TWO dirty yella commie rats!

                      nope – an orange headed sociopathic lying, mofo without a shred of humanity in his cold cold gut.

          • amersham1046 November 13th, 2016 at 18:34

            there is a class of people that enjoy living in a swamp

            • Larry Schmitt November 13th, 2016 at 18:41

              And they’re welcome to it, as long as they don’t expect FEMA to bail them out every time there’s a big blow, or the ACE to rebuild their beaches.

      • Hirightnow November 13th, 2016 at 10:52

        The A.C.E. actually tried to cut Florida in half, once…never thinking about the effects.

        • StoneyCurtisll November 13th, 2016 at 11:25

          Interesting story, thanks fo the link.

          • Hirightnow November 13th, 2016 at 12:37

            Quite welcome.
            I never actually knew about it in full until I read some Piers Anthony books (The “Xanth” series…rather out of favor these days, because of reasons) where his land of Xanth, modeled after Florida, has a “Gap” (complete with a dragon)that everybody just seems to forget about (which was his whole point).

    • Warman1138 November 13th, 2016 at 13:07

      How long can they tread water?…….. a future prerequisite for moving to Florida.

    • oldfart November 13th, 2016 at 13:12

      Why did the chicken swim across the road ?…

  6. Roctuna November 13th, 2016 at 10:28

    Maybe he should wait until he gets a briefing from his military. They don’t think it’s a Chinese hoax

    There are no facts in Trumpville. No science either. So forget about doing anything to mitigate the effects of climate change. Not gonna happen.

  10. amersham1046 November 13th, 2016 at 18:32

    looking for a way out,–
