President
Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord last week, a very smart move
because it was a bad agreement that hurt the US
economy and was costing American jobs.
This is President Trump keeping one more of his campaign promises.
The agreement
was not binding because it was never approved by the Senate as required by
law. It was also a farce because it gave
a pass to all the world’s worst polluters.
The agreement had no enforcement method to make these countries comply
at any point in the future.
Other world
countries objected to the US
pulling out of the agreement. Of course
they did. The agreement gave them a
clear economic advantage over the United States . It was just one more attempt to transfer
wealth from the US
to other second and third world countries.
The lame
stream media says a large majority of our country is opposed to Trump’s
decision. I totally disagree with this
statement. This must be based on the
same polls and media that said Trump never had a chance to win the
Presidency.
I am not
opposed to protecting the environment. I
advocate repairing things rather than replacing them. We live in a throw-away society.
I am a fan of
recycling waste. In our county, we have
one of the two waste-to-energy plants in Wisconsin . We are struggling to keep it operational
after 31 years. Burning waste and
turning it into steam and energy eliminates 90% of the waste going into a
landfill, plus we are generating energy.
If the federal government is serious about protecting the environment,
they should consider helping waste-to-energy plants.
I believe in
climate change. This area of Wisconsin
was once covered by a glacier. That
glacier melted due to climate change.
What was the cause? I don’t know,
but I do know it was not caused by man-made carbon emissions.
We recently
had an F3 tornado a block north of us.
It was on the ground for 83 miles and was up to one-half of a mile
wide. The devastation is
unbelievable. Mere mortals have as much
chance of controlling the climate as we do of controlling that tornado. We better start concentrating on controlling
the things we can control and leave the rest to God.
God bless
President Trump and guide him to make America great again.
