Donald Trump Will Exit Paris Climate Change Agreement
AGENDA 21 RADIO
BY PAUL PRESTON
As reported by Agenda 21 Radio last week President Donald Trump will exit the Paris Climate Accord. A source close to the President confirmed to Agenda 21 Radio the president is ‘firm’ on his desire to remove the United States from the Paris climate accord agreed to by then President Obama and supported by radical environmentalist Governor of California Jerry Brown.
This is major blow to the Agenda 21 and 2030 Agenda promoted by the United Nations.
The news was confirmed by severalmainstreammedia outlets.
The decision wreaks havoc on former President Barack Obama’s legacy as president, despite pleas from world leaders for the United States to show leadership on climate change and remain in the agreement
Trump’s decision fulfills a key campaign promise to supporters of his run for president, widely supported by Republican members of congress who felt that the treaty unfairly jeopardized the American economy.
Opponents of the climate deal were concerned after White House economic advisor Gary Cohn told reporters that the president was “evolving on the issue” during his trip overseas.
His daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner reportedly channelled support for the deal behind the scenes at the White House, encouraging climate change activists that Trump might change his mind. Trump’s Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, the former Exxon CEO, also supported remaining in the treaty.
On May 9th, Obama defended his climate change legacy, calling the agreement “the one that will define the contours of this century more dramatically perhaps than any other.” In October 2016, Obama described the deal as “the best possible shot to save the one planet we’ve got.”
New York and Washington elites agreed, downplaying the future of coal as an energy source and urging more federal subsidies for wind and solar investments.
Trump’s EPA Secretary Scott Pruitt and White House senior advisor Stephen K. Bannon urged the president to keep his campaign promise to kill the agreement and put American energy and job growth first.
