You like most didn't actually read the paris accord. I like that you are asking rather than railing against our getting out of it.
The transfer from industrial countries was to a lot of third world countries because we are the ones that pollute the most. Therefore that means we must make recompense to these other countries by helping them develop cleaner energies, conservation or farming. This was going to cost the taxpayer TENS OF BILLIONS of dollars to help with water conservation in places like Morocco or pay for farmers to tackle extreme weather in Sri Lanka.
Those were actual earmarks for the paris accord. We are 20 TRILLION in debt with many domestic problems that are in trouble and under funded yet we are going to send money to countries that don't even like us and this is a good deal for the American taxpayers?
