President Trump's pick to be the new secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, is not a fan of the Paris climate agreement, the treaty that claims it will slow global warning by reducing the world's carbon dioxide emissions. Politicians from most of the world's nations signed the deal, and President Obama said "we may see this as the moment that we finally decided to save our planet."
That's dubious.
Trump wisely said he will pull America out of the deal. He called it a "massive redistribution of United States wealth to other countries."
I'll bet Al Gore and most of the media don't even know what's in the accord. I didn't until I researched it for this week's YouTube video.
Manhattan Institute senior fellow Oren Cass is the rare person who actually read the Paris accord.
Cass tells me it's "somewhere between a farce and a fraud." I interviewed him for a video project I am doing with City Journal, a smart policy magazine that often makes the case for smaller government. "You don't even have to mention greenhouse gases in your commitment if you don't want to. You send in any piece of paper you want."

OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
Pompeo is a solid member of the team. It’s unfortunate you chose to take a cheap shot at Ivanka who has changed her father’s mind in exactly which ways? Don’t tell me family leave because he first proposed that years ago.
Follow the money. “climate change” is not even the issue.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?”
Maybe the specks in Europe can control it? Or maybe the Florida high school specks can tell the sun what to do!
She carries some weight with her Dad and appears more accepting of the climate change BS so I’m just hoping she doesn’t or isn’t able to sway him on it.
“Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?”
They can’t, but it won’t stop them trying.
Reminds me of: “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools”
Exactly!
Of course they ignore the specs that can afford to buy credits to continue on as they always have. In other words, the specs that provide the lowest amounts of "pollution" will have to further reduce their usage of resources causing "pollution" and settle for a lifestyle unknown to modern man, even in shite holes.
I'm sure I just won an honorary degree at some prestigious Ivy League Institution of higher learning, with my politically correct & oh so insightful answer. I think it might even get me a PhD. 8>)
