Cuomo, other governors call for states' alliance with Paris climate pact

[Madmallard]

New York State’s policies to reduce carbon emissions to deal with climate change will remain unaltered even after President Trump removed the United States from the Paris Agreement, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said.

The New York governor joined with California Gov. Jerry Brown and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee to announce the creation of a new United States Climate Alliance and invited other states to join the coalition, affirming to continue the Paris Agreement on climate change’s provisions at the state level.

Joining other states and localities in reacting to Trump’s decision, Cuomo issued a new executive order reaffirming existing state policies directed at climate change problems, some of which already exceeded those contained in the Paris Agreement.

“We will not ignore the science and reality of climate change,’’ Cuomo said in a statement issued soon after Trump’s Rose Garden appearance.

“If the President is going to be AWOL in this profoundly important human endeavor, then California and other states will step up,’’ Brown said in a statement issued along with Cuomo and Inslee.

Another wedge to hasten the break up, lol.

Let me guess Cuomo is an honest upstanding political man helping all of NY and is over qualified to run a country.

The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate at Bergen Norway

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone.

Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.

Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the Gulf Stream still very warm.

Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelt which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.

Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.

As for me, I believe that the Climate is changing. The Earth is still coming out of the last Ice Age. At some point this too shall pass and we will begin cooling off and another Ice Age will occur. That is when you begin to panic.

Except, of course, when he can arrange a photo-op and light up NYC, wasting thousands of dollars in electricity. Oh yeah, and ignoring the roads and bridges in NYS, causing untold thousands of dollars in damages to the vehicles of the residents which end up being replaced and shunted off to junkyards (which are SO environmentally friendly).

Andrew Cuomo is such a useless, self-important, pandering asshole.

So Cuomo, Brown and the Washington dude aren't happy with Trump. Yeah, the world is right again.

 

[Chipperxd]

WA state was a great place to live once. Until all the CA liberal idiots started migrating North to escape the shit hole state they created in CA.

You know, the usual communist states in America.

Shit for brains Andy strikes again...

well FUAC will promise more Money that isn't his and he doesn't have to a cause that only he is behind!

sound like his M.O.!

 

[ArmedCorgi]

Cuomo is NYS, Cuomo is lord

 

[Vinson57]

This means you start paying more for energy while someone starts pocketing the extra cost they add in. Its all a scam. If Global warming is true, it cannot be stopped and this is all just cashing in at our expense.

 

[carpediem]

Wow, imagine all the stuck driver photo ops if another ice age starts! Andy Pander would be in his glory!

Buffalo News press Pub, Rag sheet bird cage liner.... Maybe cuomo could have saved the Dinosaurs?

[meketrefe]

Make no mistake, Andy is already campaigning for the next presidential election.
Albany and NYC should do a sister's city pact with Paris.
They all probably have record number of asshole percapita liberal BS.

 

[Jmac]

States can't make pacts with foreign countries, nice try idiot Cuomo

 

[Duke]

If he kept his mouth shut it would reduce global warming.......FUAC

 

[Criticalt]

Heres the thing....
Coal and natural gas are chraper, always have been cheaper and always will be cheaper than wind and solar......period.
Every single american, including liberal's will continue to use coal and gas until an other viable option is available, and that is decades away.
I use solar for all the needs of my 3 barns and invested a great deal of money for high efficiency furnaces for our main house and caretakers cabin.
What have you done Cuomo??
Drive around in an armoured caddy that gets 6 miles to the gallon, with 3 other cars in your convoy.
Fly around in helicopters and private jets for weekend getaways in the Hamptons.

Screw you you ignorant POS. Your "carbon footprint" is 10x that of the average NYer.
I was green long before you even heard the term.
Most people I know take better care of the environment than 99.9% of urban liberals, and 100% of politicians.
Go straight to hell with your "climate deals".
Until China and India are on board, there is NO chance for change.
Nobody disagrees our climate is changing. There is written history that temps were higher and there was less ice 200 years ago. The earth is alive, it fluctuates all the time. Just because science has found ways to measure it over the last 30 years, does not mean climate change didnt exist before.
Literally go fuck youself.
