Can someone give me a detailed article outlining the upside to this?
.....Seriously?

Yes. Might as well see why someone would entertain going through with this......Seriously?
Just because he has meetings doesn't mean he didn't already stupidly make up his mind.
Today, I am genuinely angry at the citizens of the USA.
All of them.
Not just the ones that voted for him, nor the orange turd himself, but every single one.
It's irrational, it's unfair, but I can't help it.
Fuck all of this.
One week later: Trump formally announces withdrawal from Paris Accord
Are there any repercursions for the US specifically if they go out? As in, can the other major economies of the Paris accords (financially) punish the US for bailing out and fucking up mother earth at an even quicker rate?

That said, here's hoping this was leaked as a feeler and he was just testing the waters.
Either way, what a fucking dunce.

I now am on the "Fuck Donald Trump" bandwagon.
He is now a worldwide problem, because his childish demeanour has led to fatal action.

Fuck you man. I didn't vote for this piece of shit.

Another decision that Ivanka tries to influence and nothing will happen.
You'd really think even seeing all this immediate backlash from all different sides would make him want to stick with it. It'd be an easy win for him and the pundits would be talking about how this is the day Trump became president.
The real killer.Some of us really REALLY fucking tried to stop this. I've been out nearly every other weekend at least protesting and marching for something that has been directly fucked because of this administration. Our country is in the stranglehold of not only the Right/Fox News propaganda machine, but apathy. People throwing up their hands and not giving a shit to the detriment of all.
Lol.
Why is everyone so angry all the time.
Yeah, it's a big cultural divide, I feel, with Europeans, especially those who have never been in the States. They have a mindset that you can just jump in the car and go anywhere and back within a day's time. It's just not the reality for a large part of America, especially going State-to-State.
Because the entire point of the Paris agreement was "ramping up" pledges. Paris was the start of fixing our issues. It's pointless to go "well current pledges don't fix the issue" because that was one of the key points of the negotiations.
I'd say it mattered greatly for anyone that got on board after November 8th.Hey, it doesn't matter when people get onboard. Just that they do.
The completely avoidable death of our world.I would imagine people would get a little pissed at the potential (inevitable) death of our world.
So, the pledges from the Paris agreement would lead to a temperature increase of around 3.3°C. The american pledges would mean a reduction with 0.1 to 0.3°C. So without the US we could get 3.6°C ... Either way that's still more than the "well below 2°C" pledge. So is this so much more disastrous for the world?
On the other side, it is ofcourse an open door for other countries to slow down their efforts, which could only make it worse. But maybe this could be an incentive to the rest of the world to up the efforts and really reach the 2°C mark?
Lastly, for the US'ers claiming that the states and cities are doing much more even without you federal government: we've seen Trump pulling tricks nobody would've allowed before, what would keep him from forcing states and cities to use coal or put taxes on green technology while subsidizing his 'clean coal'? I know there is something in your constitution that doesn't allow the federal government to intervene with the states or something like that, but again ... he has done something crazy things already (+ 33 governors are R, right?).
Where is Ivanka, the moderating influence?
Just now?
Americans are worse than ISIS. At least ISIS has some religious fundamentalism to back up all their terrorist acts, the US are just pure evil and want to destroy this planet just because.
Lol.
Why is everyone so angry all the time.. Pls try and resolve issues instead of making it worse with phrases like these

You are wrong. We understand this. And I have provided you with an example how a small group is organising protests all over Europe, transcending borders, language barriers and cultures, every week!
He can't do anything about it for several years yet, he can just be a blowhard and not match goals but he can't formally withdrawl just yet.
Meanwhile, US States and Cities will just further dive and invest into green technology for their local and broader economies, and leave behind the bumblefucks that voted for this piece of shit.
He can take the accelerated course which would get us out in a year which would be the worst decision, but it's Trump so he'll fucking do it.
You don't. I realize you think you do, but it becomes very obvious when these discussions come up that most of you really don't.
I'd say it mattered greatly for anyone that got on board after November 8th.
But her emails!
