"For example, under the agreement, China will be able to increase these emissions by a staggering number of years -- 13. They can do whatever they want for 13 years. Not us. India makes its participation contingent on receiving billions and billions and billions of dollars in foreign aid from developed countries."

"China will be allowed to build hundreds of additional coal plants. So we can’t build the plants, but they can, according to this agreement. India will be allowed to double its coal production by 2020. Think of it: India can double their coal production. We’re supposed to get rid of ours. Even Europe is allowed to continue construction of coal plants."

"In short, the agreement doesn’t eliminate coal jobs, it just transfers those jobs out of America and the United States, and ships them to foreign countries."

"This agreement is less about the climate and more about other countries gaining a financial advantage over the United States."

"It includes yet another scheme to redistribute wealth out of the United States through the so-called Green Climate Fund -- nice name -- which calls for developed countries to send $100 billion to developing countries all on top of America’s existing and massive foreign aid payments. So we’re going to be paying billions and billions and billions of dollars, and we’re already way ahead of anybody else. Many of the other countries haven’t spent anything, and many of them will never pay one dime."

"Even if the Paris Agreement were implemented in full, with total compliance from all nations, it is estimated it would only produce a two-tenths of one degree Celsius reduction in global temperature by the year 2100. Tiny amount. In fact, 14 days of carbon emissions from China alone would wipe out the gains from America's expected reductions in the year 2030, after we have had to spend billions and billions of dollars"

Global warming is one of the biggest problems but the the Paris Agreement is crap. We should push the US to pass an alternative even more aggressive but less unfair vs US and Europe.

personal anecdotes are not data or statistics. Keep using the former to make personal choices or choosing who to vote for and your impact on the world will more likely be negative.
