Pulling out of the Paris Agreement is a mistake. It's not a perfect agreement, but it was a good start. It wasn't a binding agreement and could have been worked into a better one over time.
If it is so good, what is the point of a non-binding agreement? What if we keep up our end of it and other countries don't?
1) Global warming is real. The science is clear on this. CO2 emissions are contributing to it. Something should be done. But, let me guess, the science guys are bought and paid for by the NWO.
I'm not a global warming denier. We are cutting our CO2 already by using more natural gas. To make huge cuts in carbon, we should consider more nuclear.
My concern is not all of those behind doing away with American coal are motivated by CO2 reduction. Other countries might seek to purchase this US resource if the price collapses.
I know paranoid Alex is always acts like it's the Globalists vs Patriots. He is very misguided. After WWII, the US created the current World Order in order to secure US hegemony and to push our economic and political ideas on the rest of the world. Part of the reason for this was the threat of communism. The US saw the spread of communism to Europe as a major threat to free trade and capitalism. If most of the world went communist, the US economy would surely suffer, as capitalism needs trade across the globe to truly thrive. Europe was in shambles following WWII, and the US believed Europe could have gone communist, which is why you had things such as the Marshall Plan to rebuild Western Europe.
Following WWII, these newly global institutions helped push the US's economic and political agenda abroad.
There weren't globalists behind the scenes installing puppets into the US government trying to get us to join these institutions to destroy America. It just isn't true.
One of the reasons for American decline is corporatism: money in politics causing our representatives to represent the interests of the very rich. This was not caused by the so-called "Globalists." When politicians learned they could raise more from the rich and big corporations, things began to change. Instead of representing the American worker, they began to represent the global corporations that wanted to continually increase their profits at the expense of the American middle class.
Also, when you have other countries adopting some our economic and political ideals, them becoming more prosperous is only a natural consequences. This is not because of globalists and evil NWO boogeyman keeping America down.
The globalists of the past are very different from the globalists of today. Today, the globalist and corporatist are really two sides of the same coin. It's about global corporations screwing the American worker.
2) The green energy market is going to be one of the next economical booms. Instead of us taking the lead on the world stage when it comes to green energy and renewables, China will. And they will get to write the rules in subsequent agreements and their economy will benefit greatly from it:

Whether or not you believe in global warming, the world is going to move toward green energy, and we should take the lead on this on the international stage for the economic benefits alone. It's always best to go to where the puck is going.
