USA budget defense is 824 billions a year.
Isn't it possible to make it 823 billions and give 1 to the Earth ?
The US Right doesn't see it that way.
They don't believe anthropogenic climate change is a problem, so to them the Accord is all about welfare for poorer nations. You can tell from the postings on this and other threads that they don't understand how and where the 1 billion would be spent or how that benefits the US.
In their view, Earth should be looking for a job rather than handouts from hardworking American Republicans. If Earth's health takes a turn for the worse, that' s Earth's problem, not theirs. No free healthcare either!
