While every other westernized country (and several third world countries) understand and accept the science and implications of climate change, "the leaders of the free world" and the elected officials of "God's chosen country", say, "No, it's all a bunch of bullshit, and we're going with the 3% of scientists that are funded by the fossil fuel industry.  We can't afford to help, anyway."

 U.S. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy says the House will not go along if President Barack Obama tries to commit taxpayer money to support a climate accord reached in Paris.He says Congress has the authority to decide how to spend U.S. taxpayer dollars, "and I don't think that's the best use of our money."

McCarthy suggested that a must-pass year-end spending bill currently in the works could become the vehicle for language blocking any such expenditure.

The California Republican on Monday also criticized Obama's overall approach at the Paris talks, saying he should be focusing on America's progress in switching to natural gas and thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
