Much of the discussion at the summit will revolve around US President Donald Trump’s announcement earlier this year that his country — which the world’s second-largest carbon dioxide emissions — would pull out of the December 2015 agreement.

But other countries are determined to see the agreement through, regardless of the message sent by the United States, according to Danish PM Rasmussen.

“World society must move on after the American announcement about the Paris Agreement. We must not forget that there are still 190 countries that believe the future of the planet is worth fighting for,” Rasmussen said ahead of the summit via a written statement.

“Denmark and other countries are determined to see through the 2015 Paris climate agreement, “

Nothing can deter a lunatic from his mission.

“...Without US cash...”

We think the future of our economy is worth fighting for, while we improve the environment.

Well, his middle name appears to be a variation of ‘Loki’, so maybe he is joking.

“Much of the discussion at the summit will revolve around US President Donald Trump’s announcement earlier this year that his country — which the world’s second-largest carbon dioxide emissions — would pull out of the December 2015 agreement”

So which country is number 1? India, China or Russia? Inquiring minds want to know.

That's fine, Denmark and all the rest of your gullible buddies.

You give your money to the third world grifters.

No, and it won't stop China from putting 700 new coal fired plants on line this year. What do Denmark and Norway hope to accomplish other than photo ops? Sitzpinklers, all.

These chumps are under existential threat from muslims and they worry about a nontoxic 100% certified organic naturally occurring gas.

Yep, it's all a Kabuki act of defiance by the left wingnuts. Without US cash to redistribute it's all a joke. However, I will say this, I do think they are trying to bide their time in hopes that the US brings back an Obama type in 2020.

The US is the only country paying into the Paris slushfund. Walking away is the best thing we can do.

Who cares? Trump should merely wish the other 189 countries the best of luck in their worthless endeavor. 👍

Go for it, Lars.

You won’t last a year without US backing/funds.
