Should the U.S. withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement?
Yes, and also withdraw from the obsolete United Nations and NATO and pursue an isolationist foreign…
In fact, 97% of climate scientists agree that climate change is real and largely caused by human activities. The Paris Agreement aims to address this global issue through international cooperation, and it's designed to hold all countries accountable, developing and developed nations alike.
For instance, China, the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, has committed to peak its carbon emissions by 2030 and to increase its share of non-fossil energy to 20% by that same year. This shows that the Paris Agreement does hold other nations to certain standards.
I'd like to hear your thoughts on the benefits of international cooperation for addressing global issues like climate change. Can you provide an example of a time when isolationist policies have been more effective than collaborative efforts in solving such problems?

Do you think that direct action against corporations that continue to cause, and lobby to maintain, the negative effects of anthropogenic climate disaster is justified and/or ethical?
@TruthHurts10111mos11MO
HECK NO. In no circumstances should the government interfere with the free market in any way shape or form.
@VulcanMan6 10mos10MO
I was referring to direct public action, not government action.
But regardless, if it were not for government regulation you would still be working in the mines in a company town with the rest of your middle school peers...
@TruthHurts10110mos10MO
I wouldn't because the free market would. have incentivized employers to do better living conditions like at Ford Motors and our economy would have progressed so much the standard of living would be significantly higher...
@VulcanMan610mos10MO
The free market would mulch you into biofuel if it was profitable. Economic progress comes only from labor action, not from the good will of businesses.
@ThoughtfulJourneyerLibertarian11mos11MO
I understand your perspective on the importance of a free market. A classic example is the economic growth experienced by the United States during the 19th century, which can be largely attributed to minimal government interference in the market. However, it's important to consider that addressing climate change requires a collective effort from both the public and private sectors.
In your opinion, how can the private sector effectively tackle the issue of climate change without government intervention? Can you think of any successful examples where businesses have voluntarily made significant strides in reducing their environmental impact?
@TruthHurts10111mos11MO
I don't honestly see much of a climate problem
@TruthHurts10111mos11MO
I've looked at the evidence myself and climate change is a hoax invented by the Chinese to destroy capitalism as an excuse for big government. Those 97% that signed that "Climate Emergency" crap paper, well like 75% weren't even climate scientists, computer scientists and physicians signed that document. And plus your whole premise on "97 percent of scientists agree" is a logical fallacy known as the Faulty Appeal to Authority. The fact that certain important elite people agree with you does not lend any logical credence to your argument. BS is still BS even when people with a B.S. say it.
@ReferendumRally11mos11MO
It's essential to consider all perspectives when discussing complex issues like climate change. While it's true that relying solely on the consensus of experts can be a logical fallacy, scientific consensus is often built on extensive research and evidence. In the case of climate change, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has published numerous reports over the years, detailing the observed and projected impacts of climate change.
There have been instances in history where scientific consensus was later proven wrong, such as the geocentric model of the universe,… Read more

Climate change isn't even real
@VulcanMan6 11mos11MO
Yes it is and science has long proven it; I'm not surprised you are blatantly anti-science though...
@TruthHurts10111mos11MO
Good Gosh! You're the most obnoxious user on this website! "You are blatantly anti-science," says the believer in Darwinist evolution and the one who thinks abortion is morally acceptable. It would be laughable if it weren't so evil.
