Thats hilarious.

Anyone that claims that CNN is not corrupt, thoroughly corrupt, will find it hard to defend that headline. CNN is in the business of trying to influence people and votes not report the news.

LOL...yeah, you're right, it is a nice qualifier, after all, it's all the matters, right? Right? Are you going to claim otherwise?
It's all that matters if you're trying to make a completely irrelevant comparison in order to downplay the ridiculousness of your position. Let's play math for a second and pretend our per capita carbon footprint is 2-1, ithat of China per 100 million people. It's not, but since we're already in absurdville oN this train, I'll spot you some points.

Carbon footprint in US (347 million)
2+2+2+.9= 6.9

Carbon footprint of China (1.37 billion)
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+.7= 13.7

Carbon footprint of India 1.34 billion)
1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+.7= 13.4

Two countries doing **** all in the PCA when using my absurdly unfavorable ratio still double us in total carbon footprint. So yea, when you bring up per capita while trying to make a real argument, it's hilarious to me that A you think you've made a cogent point and B. Have the ignorance to double down on it.

Okay then, I guess if China killed a billion of their people then they'd be better than us. Makes sense.

I can't believe I'm actually having to argue about per capita being the right way to look at things. Where is Alan Funt and the hidden camera?

Look at it this way, since you're an enviro freak. You pour 1 gallon of toxic chemicals in a water source using the same logic. Which country is polluting more?

Total footprint is what matters not the ridiculous ratio.

Just as easy to interpret it as a major step toward leadership. Others may have become followers by nit wanting to look out of step with other Nations even IF they are not in tune with the stance taken. Global warming is and was a hoax and led those pushing it to alter their stance and begin referring to their 'religion; as 'climate change' (a truly meaningless term when one thinks about the words and their meaning. The climate changes constantly and always has! No legislation or taxation will alter the influence of the sun and its activity cycles. Man is not and has not created or caused lasting changes in the climate. ALL the rash predictions regarding what is to come and the dooms day approach are from computer modeling based on programs written with the purpose of achieving the harsh ends desired in advance by those creating the models. Remember the saying about computers--garbage in--garbage out. Writing a program to model anything and have the result come out as desired is not difficult. To then rely on such models as anything more than a hoax is foolish. Then we add in the fraudulent data that has been contributed by folks seeking funds as their support and knowing that more funds can be attained if the 'data', however obtained (including being generated without investigations), supports the perceived state of facetiously generated hysteria. Some wish to pass this off as 'science' and scientific research while many more realize it is NOT.
Donald Trump deserves high praise for recognizing the reality and having the courage to stand up for fact and reason beyond hysteria and fictions computer modeling. Now to get the schools to STOP teaching fiction as if it were really scientific fact. Our kids deserve better.

Exactamundo. Well said. Obama entered this agreement to simply attain his usual goal of redistributing America's wealth to the rest of the world. F*k him and the rest of the America haters on this board and across the globe.

I'm not an enviro freak and that is the problem in all this for Trump, namely it's not extremists on the other side.

I'll pour 1 gallon of toxic chemical in a container containing 1 gallon of water and 2 gallons of toxic chemicals in a space containing the water of 100 Olympic swimming pools. Which do you want to drink from? I assume the first one because it has the lesser amount of toxic chemicals. For me, I'll choose the one with less toxic chemicals per unit.

I'll wait for you to figure out your math error in the analogy.

China has five times as many people as the US. Per capita the US emits way more carbon.

I don't know or frankly care about whatever projection you're linking to about how much carbon will be reduced. (You never believe such things anyway so I don't know why you're trotting them out now.) Every damn country in the world was signed onto this except Syria and Nicaragua. How often do you get every country except two to agree to anything? The world is changing and instead of being a leader the world's only superpower is abdicating. It's sad and it's not going to go down well in history.
Stop fuking whining. Do your part to stop carbon dioxide emissions or STFU.

To be clear I made the qualifier in the previous post too but the other guy ignored it and that's why I made it again.
Per capita emissions is the dumbest argument ever. How you dont see that is beyond me. We can reduce emissions by having kids? Just go away ya fukn tard.

The only countries not in it are Syria, Nicaragua and the USA.

India, BTW, has about 1/10th as much per capita carbon emission as the US. China is more like 1/5th.

Comes from their trees.

China emits more carbon that we do. Where are you getting your information?

You didn't answer my question. If we stayed in Paris, how much would global warming be reduced by the year 2100?

http://www.ucsusa.org/global_warmin.../each-countrys-share-of-co2.html#.WTB6gsaZNAY

You won't get an answer. Leftists are NEVER held to account for or justify their 100% misses or false predictions on our imminent gloom and doom from man made interruption of the normal conditions of our climate.

NEVER.

All they do is make dire predictions unless the U.S. pays, and when their predictions don't turn out to be true or they don't get enough money from us, they just change the predictions and then demand more money.

Wait.... I didn't realize that Global Warming was a per capita issue. Didn't realize that we measure Global Warming by the capita of a nation and not the temperature. [eyeroll]

The point is simple. Obama agreed to ****. Trump didn't. Trump has the power to undo it.

Doesn't mean the US can't work towards improving our emissions on our own.

Reminds me of the LEED certification ******** I see in Construction. As if we need special certifications to design and build "Green" buildings.

I'll wait for you to figure out your math error in the analogy.

I don't see the math error. Enlighten me. It looks to me like the 1st scenario is 2 gallons of liquid, 1 gallon or 50% of which is toxic chemicals and the 2nd scenario is about a million gallons of liquid, 2 gallons or about 0.005% of which is toxic chemicals.

And after looking up the size of an Olympic sized swimming pool (660,000 gallons) I can be more precise and say 100 of them have 66,000,000 million gallons of water so adding 2 gallons of toxic chemicals to that would make it about 0.000003% toxic chemicals.

I'm going to take my chances on the one that contains 2 gallons of toxic chemicals rather than the one that contains 1 gallon.
