Thirty States Reject Trump's Climate Discord

Has the divide between the priorities of the urbanized coastal states and the rural interior even been greater?

--

Thirty states and scores of companies said Thursday that they would press ahead with their climate policies and pursue lower greenhouse gas emissions, breaking sharply with President Trump’s decision to exit the historic Paris climate accord.

In a pointed rebuttal to Trump’s announcement in the rose garden of the White House, New York’s governor Andrew M. Cuomo unveiled a plan to invest $1.65 billion in renewable energy and energy efficiency on Thursday, the largest ever procurement of renewable energy by an American state.

Meanwhile, more than two dozen big companies — including Apple, Morgan Stanley, and Royal Dutch Shell — urged Trump not to exit the Paris agreement on Thursday.

Elon Musk, chief executive of Tesla, and Robert Iger, chief executive of Disney, both resigned from the president’s advisory council after the announcement. Lloyd Blankfein, chief executive of Goldman Sachs, tweeted that Trump’s decision “is a setback for the environment and for the U.S.’s leadership position in the world.”

Cuomo, Brown and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said they were forming a coalition of states determined to stick to the Paris targets. The three states account for a fifth of the U.S. economy.

On Thursday, 25 major companies took out a full-page advertisement in The New York Times with a letter addressed to Trump. The companies — including Google, Apple, Intel, Microsoft, Mars, Schneider Electric, Morgan Stanley, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts — urged Trump to stay in the Paris accord.

Those states are free to tax themselves for whatever stupid reason they see fit, really.

So all the globalists are upset

OP is a faggot for not posting a link.

>They'll voluntary engage in things

Oh no the horror!

Sorry!

>breaking sharply with President Trump’s decision to exit the historic Paris climate accord.
Are poeple really this retarded? Did you life this from some "journalists" tumblr?

>Washington Post
oh.
Everything in this article is a positive thing.
>Trump exited shitty deal
>companies are going to try to become cleaner anyways
Trump made this all happen, and wil get 0 credit.

They won't be sending dosh to the europoors so idgaf. Win/win.

>Thirty states and scores of companies said Thursday that they would press ahead with their climate policies and pursue lower greenhouse gas emissions
Absolutely appropriate to work this at the State and private level.

And when they are unable to pass the cost off onto tax payers/customers they will be in trouble

They can give away their own money.

Is it really not surprising anyone that the corporations defending these wacko climate restrictions also have a direct conflict of interest in funding and overcharging at a premium profit, products and services that claim to be environmentally friendly, like electric cars, "wind" mills, and miserably inefficient solar panels?

Like, really?

In a roundabout way he might actually be good for this country

By threatening our standing in the world through his reckless incompetence, trump is forcing those with the power to stand up to him to act

>25 major companies

still can't accept that they threw a billion dollats at Hillary and still lost.

When is AG Sessions going to indict them for evading TRILLIONS of dollars in taxes and start sending them to prison?

So doesn't this just prove trump right? Pull out, quit giving all that money and all these people continue to do this to prove le orange cunt wrong?

C-CAN THEY REJECT THE PRESIDENT LIKE THAT?! ISNT THIS TREASON??!!!!

THIS JUST IN:

30 States are now asking for Federal Tax Dollars after overcompensating green energy density.

They can do as they like; this is a free country. Trump prevented the federal government from mandating action. This is appropriate in a free society.

And?

If states want to do this shit on their own, more power to them. The whole fucking point of leaving the Paris Agreement is because it's fucking stupid to FORCE everyone to do so.

Three states and a bunch of nigger tier cities, not thirty states. California, New York and Washington-- so basically you and your commie bros will be paying for this shit.

>leave garbage climate "treaty"
>globalists losing their shit
shocking

it's all BS.

the companies are doing it to look better in the public's eye.

the climate accord is only a couple of years old and basically shafts the USA. if you'd read further, Trump is exiting it -because of this-, not because he disagrees with it. he wants to renegotiate our place in it is all.

naturally you fuckwits won't say the latter.

They're free to do what they want, but I'm sick of this widespread ignorance that being against an agreement that involves just giving away billions of American tax dollars to our economic rivals with no guarantee of how that money will be spent somehow means you want to destroy the environment. And I'd be willing to bet all those corporations who are against Trump's decision are owned by globalists who just might have a vested interest in pushing for any globalist agreement that brings us a little closer to a one-world government, no matter how harmful it is to the actual people of the country and the world.

So this pushed the states rights movement into the mainstream? 99D chess

It's entirely reasonable for States and companies to take this action of their own accord. Citizens and businesses are able to freely move to other States to express displeasure if it isn't handled well in terms of taxes, regulation, and funding.
Also, of course big business wants us to stay in. They already have the capital to absorb the exorbitant costs - it's small businesses that have difficulty overcoming the entry fee to participate in heavily taxed and regulated industry. The deal helps protect established companies from new competitors.

Thats fine if they want to reduce their own emissions, but we will not be beholden to foreign powers dictating what we can and can't do and who we admit or don't.

>Trump pulls out of Paris accord because it's an unnecessary foreign entanglement
>smug libfags trip over themselves to immediately prove him right

Wow they sure showed him, Drumpf btfo!

Isn't this how it should be?

It's better to be lucky than good

I don't get it. If you really want to throw money at the third world for their green infrastructure, just make a new tax. Why is every liberal so dead set on getting on board with this agreement?

Oh noooooooooo Trump isn't letting us be robbed anymore how hoooooorrible.

The only fund I'll pay into is one to sterilize Africans.

Why is it so important that rice niggers get preferential manufacturing deals? Isn't that what this climate shit is about?

I'm not understanding the collective outrage over this, he didn't say anything about not following the emission reduction standards, only the un welfare payments. Did I miss something or is this virtue signal outrage,

>States empower themselves to improve their own emissions all without taxing citizens hand over fist to funnel it to india and china to do nothing.
No. Please. Stop. Don't.

Fuck the rest of the world.

Blue-state governments raise state income taxes and sales taxes to pay for BS feel-good green energy. Workers demand raises to off-set cost of living. businesses flee. no jobs. despair. Blue-state governments become Red- state governments. Get 38 Red state governments (75% of 50). Constitutional Convention called. Dissolve Federal Government, dissolve Federal Reserve. Freedom re-acquired. Bliss. All part of the plan.

Obviously this huge of a response means the Jews really want it so I'm glad we axed it.

Finally, a president who actually gives a shit about America, and not just some bullshit that's too late to fix anyways

...

>Did I miss something or is this virtue signal outrage
It's exactly that.

pretty much, it's just dumb globalists and tree huggers bitching about how Trump doesn't want to fuck with citizens just to use money for what is ultimately worthless anyways

Yeah, the answer to that is "so what?"

If you can do that anyway without laws requiring you to then why is the agreement necessary in the first place. It's only a negative. You can do whatever you want. And industry can do what it wants if you ruin the state. Just don't send money to other countries. You're not allowed to do that. That's what you're really REEEEEEEing about. That the US isn't footing the bill for third world countries

How I would love to shitpost from there...
Listening to the sound ofthe creek, cozy fireplace...

Yeah. That's what they're really pissed about. It fucks up their investments. Musk for example could lose a fuck ton of money. This is the definition of crony capitalism and actual corruption. Laws and regulations that benefit those corporations at the top and make competition impossible for everyone else

>WTF now I want politicians to be influenced by corporations

t.liberals everywhere

They're not doing anything against the president. It's meaningless virtue signaling. They're more than welcome to invest in alternative energy and jack up carbon taxes. And businesses are more than welcome to flee to states that aren't that retarded

ill keep my 9cents per/kwh thank you, let those liberal states enjoy spending 50 cents an hour to charge their iProducts so they can virtue signal enmass.

Report, ignore, sage if you must all shill and slide threads.
