^ Thanks for replying, dj, though I don't entirely understand your point.
I wonder what you meant by "ven't".
If it's an executive action that the Senate can prevent then I hope some worried Americans will be calling their senators
asap to apply some public pressure in favor of keeping in line with the Paris Agreement.
As a reminder, afaik, the P.A. is not legally binding to the signatories, and most scientists agree that it is the bare minimum to fend off disasterous global warming. To me it's like being on a runaway train, and the P.A. is saying, "Well, perhaps we should consider decelerating." If Trump isn't prepared to even go along with that, then yes, Noam Chomsky is right:-
