The UN will be asking futurecurrents to testify in front of the UN emergency council. Stay tuned: UN makes power play against Donald Trump 11 / 26 The Hill Devin Henry 4 hrs ago © Provided by The Hill UN makes power play against Donald Trump International governments have made a power play against Donald Trump by ratifying an international climate deal earlier than expected, effectively preventing him from "canceling" the deal as he has promised to do. The European Union's Tuesday decision to join the Paris climate deal will push the deal over the threshold for ratification; it will formally take effect in 30 days. That means Trump, should he be elected president in November, could not "cancel" or renegotiate the terms of the agreement. President Obama committed the United States to reduce its emissions by 26 percent to 28 percent by 2025 as part of the deal. The agreement is nonbinding, so Trump would be free to ignore it if he wins the White House. Some say Trump's rhetoric about the deal helped speed up ratification... http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/polit...ay-against-donald-trump/ar-BBx1569?li=BBnb7Kz
Yes, and Canada is instituting a tax on carbon emissions. The Canadian prime minister, Justin Trudeau, said on Monday that Canada will impose a tax on carbon emissions starting in 2018 as part of its efforts to meet targets set by the Paris climate change accord. Trudeau made the announcement in parliament as debate started over whether Canada should ratify the Paris accord on climate change. The House of Commons is expected to approve the Paris accord in a vote on Wednesday. Trudeau said provinces and territories can either put a direct tax on carbon emissions of at least $10 Canadian ($7.60) a ton or adopt a cap-and-trade system. If a province fails to do either by 2018, the federal government will implement a basic carbon tax of $10 a ton, rising by $10 a ton per year until it reaches C$50 a ton by 2022. “There is no hiding from climate change,” Trudeau told the Commons. “It is real and it is everywhere. We cannot undo the last 10 years of inaction. What we can do is make a real and honest effort – today and every day – to protect the health of our environment, and with it, the health of all Canadians.” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/oct/03/canada-carbon-emissions-tax-paris-climate-agreement Meanwhile in the US we have a candidate so dumb that he does not even think it is real thing. How the hell has the US gotten this far? There are SO many dumb people in it.

here is a list of those who oppose the mainstream assessment. good scientist don't deny... they say there is an absence of evidence to support _________ view. there are thousands who do that.... here are some. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...tream_scientific_assessment_of_global_warming
Willie Wei-Hock Soon is an aerospace engineer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Since 1992, Dr. Soon has been an astronomer at the Mount Wilson Observatory. Soon is also a receiving editor with the journal New Astronomy.[2] Soon is a prominent climate change skeptic who has received much of his research funding from the oil and gas industry. According to David Suzuki: “U.S. oil and coal companies, including ExxonMobil, the American Petroleum Institute, Koch Industries, and the world’s largest coal-burning utility, Southern Company, have contributed more than $1 million over the past decade to his research. According to Greenpeace, every grant Dr. Soon has received since 2002 has been from oil or coal interests.”[3] Soon is NOT a climate scientist. No repected climate scientist in the world denies man made global warming. Not one.
