In other news, Trump taking the U.S. out of the Paris accord is a despicable disgrace. Screw this guy. History will judge.

So fuck it?

The US and China are #1 & #2 (I believe in that order) as being the worst offenders. With the US backing out, Trump is basically telling everyone to go fuck themselves as he'll set it up that there are no checks. No checks speeds up the warming (which he doesn't "believe" in because...greed and idiocy) and we won't have to worry about 2100, cause fuck our children.

Hopefully not too much damage is done in 3.5 years even if we're already past the point of no return.

From Dr. John Sterman, MIT/Climate Interactive and Andrew Jones, Climate Interactive,

White House talking points on the decision to leave the Paris Agreement state:

According to researchers at MIT, if all member nations met their obligations, the impact on the climate would be negligible. The impacts have been estimated to be likely to reduce global temperature rise by less than 0.2 degrees Celsius in 2100.

We are not these researchers and this is not our finding.

Our Climate Scoreboard is a collaboration between Climate Interactive and the MIT Sloan School of Management System Dynamics Group. Our business as usual, reference scenario leads to expected warming by 2100 of 4.2°C. Full implementation of current Paris pledges plus all announced mid-century strategies would reduce expected warming by 2100 to 3.3°C, a difference of 0.9°C.

According to an ongoing temperature analysis conducted by scientists at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), the average global temperature on Earth has increased by about 0.8° Celsius (1.4° Fahrenheit) since 1880. Two-thirds of the warming has occurred since 1975, at a rate of roughly 0.15-0.20°C per decade.

A one-degree global change is significant because it takes a vast amount of heat to warm all the oceans, atmosphere, and land by that much. In the past, a one- to two-degree drop was all it took to plunge the Earth into the Little Ice Age. A five-degree drop was enough to bury a large part of North America under a towering mass of ice 20,000 years ago.

I think you support Trump. Even if you're not conscious of it.

Trump will next try to bring down special interest group Netflix in an effort to bring back thousands of Blockbuster jobs.

Comey testifying next week.

What kind of inane, messy straw man is this supposed to be?

I also can't believe you're blaming Obama for this. Then again, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, y'all like to blame Obama for every thing that's ever happened in history.

It's not like Obama blamed Bush for everything.

Trump announced during a speech at the White House Rose Garden that he had decided to pull out of the landmark climate deal, in part because it would not reduce global temperatures fast enough to have a significant impact.

"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," Trump said.

"Tiny, tiny amount."

That claim was attributed to research conducted by MIT, according to White House documents seen by Reuters. The Cambridge, Massaschusetts-based research university published a study in April 2016 titled "How much of a difference will the Paris Agreement make?" showing that if countries abided by their pledges in the deal, global warming would slow by between 0.6 degree and 1.1 degrees Celsius by 2100.

You mean like the War Bush started? Or the Economy Bush collapsed? I'd so those are pretty clearly his fault.

You're equating those things to... joining every other country on Earth in a Climate Agreement?

You did not make a point with your post. Did Obama blame Bush for keeping the wars going? Did he blame Bush for the increase in debt?

He did both. Or more aptly, he blamed Bush for starting a war without provocation and without evidence. I am not sure what point you are making. He related the debt increase to unfunded wars (the OCO budget).
