Pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord could either be a storm in a tea-cup, a blessing in disguise or actually be a good news - depending upon how one sees it - because:
- The concerned US industries and the State Governments are now more determined to go ahead ANYWAY, without the Federal Govt's interference &/or the lack of interest and with the additional support from the US citizens as well as from the 195 other member nations.
- The dramatic, irreversible and catastrophic climate changes to occur may require a few generations; which gives enough time to reverse the situation, by using improved ideas & technologies.
- The next president may take a leading role in the Paris Climate Accord - in about two to eight years [most probably TWO] of Trump.
