The problem with Musk is that it is not his money. It is taxpayer money. Our money.

Is it legal for US cities to implement parts of this Paris Treaty? I would like to think we can stand up to some of our mayors for saying they will implement it in our cities.

This isn’t about science or even pseudoscience, it is 100% about accountability to the American voting public.

Agreements of all types that diminish the accountability of elected officials to the voters of the United States are bad in my opinion.

I have reduced my energy use remarkably.

I will make further cuts. My trees are growing fairly well.

All the commonly on lights in my house are either fluorescent or LED.

My showers use about three gallons of water that comes from an aerator tank pre-warmed by the Florida heat.

If left-leaning Bill Gates wants to make my Microsoft software laptop more energy efficient, he can set Microsoft programmers to work.

I know of no reason why my laptop should ever become hot.

So Michael Bloomberg who is worth $40 Billion or more is so committed to the climate change nonsense that he is donating a whole $15 Million over 2 years, a whopping $7.5 Million a year equal to .0001875% of his wealth.

The self-important can spend as much of their money as they want. Spend none of mine.

A list of those foolish organizations would have been nice, so that investors / donors in them can pull out and protect their money.

These folks are too dumb to even see that they are doing exactly what Trump wants. Take matters into your own hands. The transfer of power is from Washington back to the people. If you listened to his innnaugurl address instead of whinning for the last 6 months you may have taken this up soon

rofl $15 MILLION????

ROFL What a joke. That is chickenfeed to Bloomberg who’s worth $40 billion or so. If all these Libtards really believed the planet and humanity were at stake, they would be changing their own lifestyles completely AND throwing their entire fortunes into the effort to save the world.

I recall how our country’s founders pledged “our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor” while risking execution at the hands of the British if they were caught in the revolution they organized.

Yet, a clown like Bloomberg thinks he does a big thing if he spends 0.0004% of his wealth on the earth-saving (sic) project.

Time to meet these clowns with ridicule and humor.

Sounds like a chargeable offense, interfering with government business.

There’s nothing to stop Bloomberg from giving away his wealth as he sees fit.

LOL! I can’t wait to see the day they get their Bills:-)
To further grease the skids of international diplomacy, Obama committed the United States to lead the transfer of $100 billion in annual “climate finance” from the developed world to the developing countries that are pledging nothing.

“Global Warming - Climate Change” world biggest hoax and scam.
Just like Obama causing Global Flooding by pissing in the ocean.
That much can humans contribute.
Elaborate scam to screw off taxpayers off their money!

Earth climate and changes are dependent on Sun’s and Sunspots activity supplying 99.99% of energy. Humans can do schit about it.
Volcano eruptions can produce much more distractions to climate than all humans and SUVs farting together.
CO2 is not poison, it is “food” for plants, which in turn produce Oxygen, that we need to breathe.
STOP the scam, jail all the scammers!!!
God bless and protect Mr. Trump!
MAGA!!!!

Hey, these people can spend their own money on that crap, right? Mail a check to the UN, Macron, buy your own solar panels, etc. Nothing illegal about that in my opinion.

A fool and his money.
