Those were the words I said IRL when I was watching ABC World News yesterday, and watched ‘our glorious leader’ pull the USA out of the Paris Climate Accord. He claims with them being part of the accord, it has hurt our economy.. when in reverse, putting jobs into clean air is actually more profitable (with coal jobs going down).
He also claims having Earth’s temperature cooling by 2% by the turn of the 22nd century(2100), isn’t worth investing in. He just doesn’t realize how far climate change has gotten, and it’s only going to get worse if we don’t act.
Trump’s decision has really bugged me, and made me ashamed to call myself an American. He literally gave the finger to our planet.
Thankfully, American workers aren’t blinded to the affects of climate change (and are rising up). Infact, today, three states with major American cities (New York/California, and Washington) have signed to the ‘United States Climate Alliance’, urging other states to join against Trump’s decision.
It’s about time we wake up to what climate change is doing to our planet, and fight for clean air. I pray for Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio to join this movement. Let’s let Trump know the Midwest is sick of this.
Call your Congressman(or woman), and urge them to join the United States Climate Alliance. Let’s undo our mess and clean our air!
