So agree with you. If he wants to sabotage the US eg offshore wind - it's bad but it's so much worse when he & his cronies sabotage the world at such a vulnerable time 🌍😔

How soon before we hear China speak?

If Reform take over England, I hope Scotland can eject and join the EU

Of course I’m not talking literally - that could never happen - but it still leaves me feeling powerless in the face of the US potentially destabilising Europe and hastening climate change.

But this also is where the world tells US to FO as tariffs not legal now of course

But Kamala had an annoying laugh!

Trump’s two policy goals seem to be 1) tear everything down no matter what cost 2) make as much money for family and friends

He's an old man who wants to fuck up the world for his own children

All because of the price of eggs went up a bit.

It is the dumbness that is soul destroying. Only hope now is that Trump's Dumb War brings this back to the table soon.

To be fair, getting the Hormuz Strait closed is probably reducing emissions from shipping :(

5/ Industry was supportive of this agreement!!!

No just wondered. It sounded as if you were suddenly piqued but good on ya for keeping the fires of rage burning since then!

Another reason is that, despite the BBC headline aping Trump's claim, the IMO is discussing it again in London this week. Like UCL's Tristan Smith, I'm not confident they'll break the impasse, but the changed context makes the US position that much more indefensible.

Trump really has been an agent of change but not in the way he perhaps intended.

If only there was a balance and legal precedent to stop a president using tariffs as weapons without a good reason

..."Merz" ...

The US Government under Trump is competing with the worst regimes over the past century to be the biggest threat to humankind.

They would waste government money on shutting down wind farms and solar farms, in the pursuit of "common sense". Because that's what Trump is doing. The are parasites, feeding on the prejudices of morons and the disinformed.

Why should London have? is the go to. Not London has proved so that should be rolled out to the rest of the country. Greenshield stamps and shit beer from pubs which don't sell food is enough for thee.

Whereas walking, cycling and eating fruit & veg actually would, to some extent, but these are considered woke.

So what's different?!

"Exactly!". Perhaps we need a lego video to reach those leaning towards deform: spelling it out simply?

…until Trump tells his lapdog Starmer to drop it, and Sir Keir will come up with another pathetic workaround to make it happen without losing face.

As an American thanks for pointing this out. The three "winners" of WWII have gone mad.

And what's worse is that they are getting away with it! Other countries should carry on, as they did during the COP process, for instance.

On the plus side because he's so shit 100s of diplomatic positions remain unfilled. So yes he's leveraging US weight, but not nearly as effectively as he could because he doesn't understand delegation or can't delegate because the wider the net the more likely he's going to get push back.

See also the dismantling of the UNEP Net Zero Alliance. It was doing fantastic collaborative work to standardise ESG monitoring, classification and reporting until US groups went after it threatening the members with anti competition law suits.

Any country collaborating with the disgusting USA ought to be ashamed of itself.

I’ll say it again; MAGA isn’t about making USA ‘great’, it’s about making everywhere else a bit more sh*t. It’s a relative, not a moral mission.

As an American I am pleased that the price of eggs has dropped.

This is what happens when you elect greedy people with no long term interests. People are voting with their wallets for EVs or solar panels. But this won't touch the sides when policies favour polluters.
