The head of the United Nations on Tuesday warned the United States against leaving the Paris climate deal, saying other countries would fill a “void” if President Trump decides to step away from the landmark agreement.

“If one country decides to leave a void, I can guarantee someone else will occupy it,” Secretary-General António Guterres said during an event at New York University on Tuesday.

The entire UN couldn't fill the void of the US.

Never call Trump's "bluffs". He has had the cards every time.

Whatever dude.


I bet other countries are just lining up to be fricked over by an international agency.

I'm sure Trump is unaware of this fake news.

I've seen liberals use this "fill the void" nonsense on here. If there is an opportunity to make money I'm sure companies will continue to innovate.

Yes. We know China will take that role.

You can't get anything over on trump...I mean he's so smart he just learned in the past few months that China was 8000 years old.

How's that for old UN!

Tell him to fill the void in US money. Matter of fact, I'd love to tell them we are looking to fill the void left in the UN building when we kick their butts out of here.

I thought this Paris climate thing was some big deal till doing some research.

Apparently every country just submitted a "pledge".

Those pledges include reducing emissions after emissions peak.

It's a shitshow


ETA example:

China:
A peak in carbon dioxide emissions by 2030, with best efforts to peak earlier. China has also pledged to source 20% of its energy from low-carbon sources by 2030 and to cut emissions per unit of GDP by 60-65% of 2005 levels by 2030, potentially putting it on course to peak by 2027.

On top of that... the majority of the pledges have the caveat of "conditional on international support".... meaning $$$$$
