Trump’s Pull-out from the Paris Climate Accord

Trump’s announcement of the withdrawal of US, world’s largest carbon polluter, from the Paris Climate Agreement once again shows the aggressiveness of US imperialism. The agreement itself has been a window-dressing in view of the urgent need for a fundamental solution and the daily necessity for the masses of the world as the decisive force to fight for more efforts from the governments to overcome the environmental catastrophe facing the planet.

Thus, the USA provocatively withdrawing from the Paris agreement is a frontal assault against the demands of the masses worldwide!

Almost all countries that signed the agreement are standing united against this utterly criminal decision by a rogue president of a rogue state which to this day has implemented none of the climate agreements unanimously signed by the comity of nations including the much talked about Kyoto Protocol. It is high time that the progressive forces the world over also take initiative to fight for more meaningful decisions for resolving the threats emanating from climate change which is the direct outcome of the development paradigm led by corporate profit motive today.

However, it is revealing to note that, in spite of issuing statement for continuing with the Paris Accord, the Indian regime with Prime Minister Modi has refrained from joining with the comity of nations condemning the US decision, that too when Trump has vehemently attacked India characterizing it as one of the biggest carbon emitters while India’s per capita carbon emission is just one-tenth of that of the US. Also many other signatories are content with verbally criticizing Trump's pull-out without taking the completely insufficient and not even achieved goals of Paris as an occasion for a really effective protection of the world climate.

We appeal to the masses of the world, all progressive-democratic forces, environmental activists including the scientific community to resolutely come forward condemning this US decision and join together, to protest and to bring about more meaningful steps to resolve the ever intensifying environmental crisis confronting planet earth.
