U.S. President Donald Trump says a lot of false things, big and small - 19 total in his speech announcing his decision to pull the U.S. out of the landmark Paris climate accord.
The Paris pullout comes on the heels of President Trump's decision not to reaffirm explicitly the central tenet of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation alliance. "Are they stupid?" Kerry, a Democrat, asked. "New Haven has shown its willingness to step out on its own and will continue on the path toward more responsible use of natural resources and better stewardship of the environment we share".
According to the Financial Times, the states that have so far agreed to the deal would together represent the world's third largest economy, just behind China and the USA and ahead of Japan.
However, CNN pointed out, Trump did not use the words "climate change" in his speech.
"He believes pollutants are part of the equation, that is the fact", she said.
President Donald Trump fired a shot heard round the world when he declared withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement, but the bullet ironically lodged in Trump's foot.
Trump barely mentioned the global warming that the Paris Agreement aims to ameliorate, suggesting that he continues to think that climate change is, as he once put it, a "hoax".

Ms. Haley last week also defended the president's views on climate change. Almost 200 countries are part of the accord and have agreed to fight global warming by reducing carbon emissions.
He had put the U.S. in league with two other nations - Syria and Nicaragua - who have not signed onto the deal agreed by over 190 other nations.
More than 1,200 U.S. mayors, companies, university presidents and state governors pledged by Monday to uphold the Paris Agreement to combat climate change.
According to the World Resources Institute, if the three US states that comprise the United States Climate Alliance and support the Paris Agreement were a single country, their economy would be the fifth-largest in the world.
So, while a pro-climate change warrior said the Paris Agreement is bad-he also said that future anti-global warming measures have to be economic detrimental, such as this emission tax pipedream that is DOA (and rightfully so) with congressional Republicans.
"Americans are not walking away from the Paris Climate Agreement", Bloomberg said in a press release.
"I can clearly see that America quits the current power game, and the decision on the Paris climate agreement only confirms it". Former President Barack Obama pledged $3 billion to help poorer countries like China and India to reduce their emissions.
