Is perfect clean. No dirty air, no dirty waters"? The Mississippi River is the second most polluted river in America. The Pacific Ocean bordering the West Coast has 3.5 million tons of garbage trapped making it the worlds largest landfill, the size of Europe. The Ohio River is still the most polluted river in America. Almost half of the U.S. population lives in areas where air pollution levels are often too dangerously high for them to breathe, according to a report released by the American Lung Association. Several of the nation's biggest cities saw ozone conditions worsen. Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Philadelphia all reported more high ozone days.<br />ONLY America did something by the agreement? Citizens of Sweden pay $59 per GDP of $55k, Luxembourg, $59 per $111k,Norway, $50 of 97k, U.K.-$19 of $46k, France-$16 of $43k, Germany-$13 of $48k, U.S.-$9 of 55k and Poland...........$0.01 of $14k. However you are right, China and Russia have done nothing.<br />As for Obama going around Congress to sign the agreement, The Republican controlled House and Congress blocked almost everything he tried to do. He didn't have much of a choice.<br />"Orange Head" pulling out of the agreement is not only bad for the climate but it diminishes the role of the country as a leader. He has already done enough alienating allies, now it is the world. This is no time for isolationism. The void he leaves will quickly be filled by Russia or China, making them stronger on the world stage.<br />Thank you for your comment, it's nice to know what a cousin thinks. :-)Joan and David Piekarczykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08765346132870127606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33728243.post-88484255855272681962017-06-08T02:23:54.664+02:002017-06-08T02:23:54.664+02:00Sorry David, but Anonymous is right. Read the fact...Sorry David, but Anonymous is right. Read the facts, not ideas.Idea is great. China and Russia did nothing from the date of signing the Paris agreement. Only America did. By the agreement, they don't have to do nothing for many years. I don't no if you remember our country. Is perfect clean. No dirty air, no dirty waters. And I did travel to Asia, Africa. You can't breathe there. Air is yellow. Water full of garbage. Also in Paris agreement, America has to give money to others countries to help them with cleaning environment. Nobody else is doing that. WHY we should do that? We don't even know, what they do with our money! <br />To finish it. Obama signed the agreement with out approval of Congress! You saying, that american people agreed with you? How you know that? Because media is saying that? Congress represent american people, and Obama bypassed it, because he couldn't get their approval! So Obama is american people? So now is Trump!

At...Anon, Of course the world has and will changed. At one rime, water could be drunk from streams, the air was clean, buffaloes roamed the prairies and forests had many trees. However, man has changed all of that. Now, people in some countries have to wear masks just to breathe the air, almost everyone drinks bottled water, our forests are being decimated to sell the wood and make money like in Puszcza, wars have started just to control the oil output to feed out need for fossil fuel. 196 countries agree that climate change is the major threat to out planet. China, India and the U.S. are the three biggest polluters are the three biggest polluters in the world but even China and India recognize the problem. Only "Orange Head" and the Federal government do not accept it. However, 75-80% of the American people do. If there is a stream near where you live, can you drink the water from it? Can yo see to the bottom of a small river? NO, you cannot. With glaciers melting, drastic changes to weather patterns, air pollution alerts everyday and notices not to go outside and breathe the air, I cannot agree with your point of view though I well respect it. Thanks for your comment.
