Didn’t mean to sound passive-aggressive, sorry if it came across that way. I just don’t want people to throw their hands up in despair. We need to fight back, and know that fighting back works.
Eh I didn’t catch it that way. I just wanted Americans to have the facts. You’re right, the way I wrote it seemed pretty defeatist, considering I left out that we reaccepted the agreement.
But this is why the fediverse is supposed to be great. You filled in more facts for me that I failed to include! Now hopefully others well read this and be more informed! 😁
Americans should be reminded that our 45th president withdrew us from the Paris agreement. https://2017-2021.state.gov/on-the-u-s-withdrawal-from-the-paris-agreement/
Biden brought the US back into the Paris agreement on his first day in office.

Ahh the US, the country where international accords are more of an on/off thing, depending on the election cycles mood.
Speaking as a US citizen, you aren’t wrong. I wouldn’t make agreements with the US unless it is February of an odd numbered year.
ETA: Late January of odd years is when we get a new president or a new Congress. I say February so there is time for the transition.
Thank you for the follow up. I probably should have added that.

I really appreciate this rational, reasonable exchange. Thanks for giving me hope for humanity, you two.
