Comments by "Hugh Jorgan" (@HughJorgan1) on "Biden Names Kerry as Special Climate Envoy" video.

  1. Fun Fact: Obama signed the $Billion dollar boondoggle known as the "Paris Climate Accord" by Executive Order, not through Congress. From an economic sense, the Accord benefits the world's worst polluters (China and India). Yet Biden has promised to rejoin the Accord, which will decimate jobs in the energy sector and hurt the economy. Democrats really need to ask themselves if this is required, particularly since we've lowered our greenhouse gas emissions by about 2% over the past decade.

  2.  @brianbatie6650  ..That's not what I'm saying. I'm simply pointing out the issues with the Paris Accord. Do you support Biden rejoining it? If so, why?

  3.  @brianbatie6650  ...I agree we have to continue to work on lowering our emissions. But we certainly don’t need to be in the useless Paris Accord to do it. Do some research on it’s effectiveness. A study in 2017 showed that NONE of the industrialized nations were meeting their commitments. Moreover, even if they were, the targets do not come close to doing enough. The Accord is a prefect example of meaningless government rhetoric...which fits Obama, Biden and the Democrats perfectly. And I remind you that Obama signed it by Executive Order rather than through Congress. Imagine the outcry if Trump did that. Biden would be an idiot to rejoin. But I’m also a realist...and realize there’s a lot of “low information” Democrat voters who will think it’s a great thing. As well, the far left and ‘green new deal’ idiots in the party, such as AOC, will rejoice because it will give the government more powers. Bottom line, I agree we need to continue to work on lowering our emissions, for which we’ve been quite successful over the past decade through technology and natural market-driven changes. But the Paris Accord is completely useless, particularly since China, India, etc aren’t even coming close to meeting their commitments.
