(CNSNews.com) – Citing the Paris climate accord as his greatest accomplishment in office, outgoing U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said that abandoning or damaging it would “condemn future generations to untold suffering.”

“This is a rare and precious achievement that we should nurture and guard fiercely,” he said of the climate change agreement and its global endorsement in record time. It entered into force early last month.

It’s weather evolution, hence the elimination of species like dinosaurs. Get used to it.

King Canute vs. the Climate Planners

"With a small hammer you can achieve great things.”

Oh really?

This claim comes from French foreign minister Laurent Fabius as he banged his gavel at the close of the Paris climate summit. To the cheers of bureaucrats and cronies the world over, Fabius announced the deal that the press has been crowing about for days, the one in which “humanity” has united to stop increases in global temperature through the transfer of trillions of dollars from the rich to the poor, combined with the eventual (coercive) elimination of fossil fuels.

And thus did he bang his gavel. To his way of thinking, and that of the thousands gathered, that’s all you have to do to control the global climate, cause the world to stop relying on fossil fuels, and dramatically change the structure of all global industry, and do so with absolute conviction that benefits will outweigh the costs.

One bang of a gavel to dismantle industrial civilization by force, replace it with a vague and imagined new way of doing things, and have taxpayers pay for it."

Even if the US were to withdraw from the the accord... even if the global warming hoax was real... our participation in this scheme will have absolutely nothing to do with its success or failure so long as there continue to be places like ... well, all of the communist regimes around the globe that get to ignore or defer the provisions into perpetuity.

This is a wealth redistribution scheme. Period.

Talk to China, not us. Our emission are lower, unlike the rest of the world.

Besides, we are entering a 25-30 year cooling period.

Shaddup.

Just in time for Trump to tell them to take a hike. And he had better.
