I wrote about the process of withdrawing last week. On the radio today,they was a discussion about it. Trump is informing all signatory nations we are out.
The fight is whether he should write a letter to the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Yes, President obama wrote the UN when we agreed. The Einsteins in the White House believe even if Trump writes the Sec-Gen that would be a defacto recognition that the UN has authority to regulate carbon emissions.
These geniuses believe instead he should send notification to the Senate and allow them to vote on it so that they can say a majority of the Senate opposes the Paris Accord.
Those disagreeing think that a Senate vote opens up the issue. What happens if they reject Trump's notification? Are we still members? Do we have to follow the Accords?
What you are seeing is the collapse of America's influence in the world.
