Paris Agreement 101

Paris Agreement 101

 

Confused about the Paris agreement and why Trump chose to get us out ?

 

Róisín Michele clarifies it, brilliantly:

 

In December 2015, nine months before the end of his presidency, Barrack Obama signed the Paris Accord. The United States did not. In order to ratify it as a treaty 2/3 of the Senate had to approve it.

Obama told us it was not a treaty, but an executive agreement between himself and other nations. The Paris agreement was an agreement only with the Obama Administration, and an unratified treaty in which case it had no effect. The Constitution's separation of powers prevents the President from binding the country unilaterally. Our system does not divide authority into spheres controlled exclusively by the Senate, House and President. It requires combinations of offices to work together.

 

Obama's counter parties in Paris knew he lacked the support to bind our country. In fact, they watered down the wording of the agreement to support Obama's agreement that it does not require ratification.
Examples: they changed the word "shall" to "should" in many places in order to avoid calling it a treaty. The negotiators choose between a treaty that would bind the United States and the promise of an outgoing president. Any claims that Trump or the United States "is going back on it words" is disingenuous. Only Obama gave his word and the other parties in Paris helped design the agreement to throw our Constitution out the window. Obama ignored his constitutional duty to submit treaties to the Senate. In fact, a statement from the Obama White House said it all when the White House signaled it would bypass the Senate no matter what by saying "I think it's hard to take seriously from some members of Congress who deny the fact that climate change exists, that they should have some opportunity to render judgement about a climate change agreement."
Under the agreement Obama signed, the UN would have called the shots on what we did within our own borders to protect the climate. They would have also had the power to punish us through embargoes and trade agreements.

 

Under Obama's agreement, China, the world's major polluters are ALLOWED to increase their emissions where the United States cannot.
India is hinging it's participation on billions of dollars of foreign aid.

 

The agreement was less about the climate and more about other countries gaining financial advantage over the United States. This was a United Nations program that gave foreign leaders in Europe and Asia more say with respect to the United States economy then we do. It would have handicapped the United States economy - it was a deal that would have punished the United States, while imposing no obligations on the world's leading polluters. China would be allowed to build hundreds of additional coal plants, but we cannot, according to the agreement. India would be allowed to double its coal production by 2020, but we have to get rid of ours. Even Europe is allowed to continue construction of coal plants, but we cannot.

 

Obama's requirements in the Paris Accord would cost the United States economy nearly $3 trillion. By 2040 our economy would lose 6.5 million industrial sector jobs including 31 million manufacturing sector jobs.
It would decapitate our coal industry which now supplies one-third of our electric power.

It imposed unrealistic targets on the United States for reducing our carbon emissions, while giving countries like China a free pass. China would actually be allowed to INCREASE emissions until 2030.

Obama committed $3 billion to the Green Climate Fund - which is about
30 percent of the initial funding - WITHOUT being authorized by Congress. We are $20 trillion in debt.  US taxpayers should not be paying to subsidized other countries energy needs.

The United States is already a Clean Energy and Oil & Gas Energy Leader. We can reduce our emissions and continue to produce American energy without the Paris Accord. America has already reduced it carbon-dioxide emissions dramatically (who remembers those yearly emission tests). The United States is the leader in oil and gas production.

 

For anyone that thought the Paris Accord was all about clean river and air, it is not and never was.

 

THE AGREEMENT FUNDS A UNITED NATIONS CLIMATE SLUSH FUND UNDERWRITTEN BY THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS.

There seems to be a new challenge taking shape in Michigan. Some muslim doctor I believe Abdul el-sayed the former Detroit health commissioner is going to make a run for governor. Buzz is he will use that platform to make a 2020 run for president. Liberal loonies are wetting their pants at the prospect.

Can anyone explain to me why the left is suicidal?

I'll take a stab at it.

Most of the left was indoctrinated from birth with liberal ideas although they do not know it was from Marxist socialist teachers and professors.

Because of this, and the fact they've never had to face a real existential threat, they think more with their heart and feelings than with their head.

They were raised in hyperbole and not facts, therefore when their "belief" system is challenged, rather than dealing in facts they resort to violence or insults.

They will continue this destructive pattern until their head is separated from their body by the very people they welcomed under the wonderful idea of tolerance.

Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.

I get that

And

Unfortunately

Have seen some of that

I remember one day flying around some carnage in Baghdad. A circle of people and vehicles and stuff blown to bits. Toward the middle was a big round red circle, which I assume was the idiot wearing the bomb. And right in the center of all that horror...Was his head...All that was left of him. He killed only women and children. Missed us completely.

Islam is no good for anyone from what I have seen.

I'd say that the learning curve for the blind will get pretty steep when that all starts and libs see first hand just how peaceful Islam can be!
