"McKenna says there is still time to convince the United States not to withdraw from the Paris climate change accord and an unexpected meeting scheduled for New York next week might be the first step in that direction."

There is, but don't bother. Just come up with a set of sanctions, and punish us for Trump's sins. It'll be good for us. Do unto us what we have done on to others. Oh, and don't forget to put a carbon tax on our products. You can use the money for your transition to a carbon-free country. America will pay for your wall of windmills.

Oh, darn. This is too EZ. The rest of the world didn't even have to threaten us with a carbon tax. Boring.

Trump Won’t Withdraw from Paris Climate Deal
Taegan Goddard's Political Wire
by Taegan Goddard

“Trump administration officials said Saturday the U.S. wouldn’t pull out of the Paris Agreement, offering to re-engage in the international deal to fight climate change,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The shift from President Trump’s decision in June to renegotiate the landmark accord or craft a new deal came during a meeting of more than 30 ministers led by Canada, China and the European Union in Montreal.”

However: “The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.”
