BERLIN (AP) — A Syrian official says the war-ravaged country plans to sign the Paris climate accord. Until now, it had been the only United Nations member state not to have done so.
The move was announced Tuesday at a global climate meeting in Bonn, Germany. It means the United States would be the sole U.N. member country outside the deal if President Donald Trump makes good on his threat to pull out.
The United States ratified the 2015 Paris Agreement — aimed at limiting global warming to under 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 F) — before Trump took office.
A member of the Syrian delegation told fellow negotiators the accord would be signed “as soon as possible.” The delegate’s name and function wasn’t immediately available.
Nicaragua acceded to the agreement last month.
and then there was one.
Syria? The same Syria that probably has a 0.0009% impact on global climate? They recognize the need to work as a global citizen? Ain’t they Mooslim?
they’re just fucking with trump.
Bless their rat-fucking hearts!
