Why Cory Booker’s Speech Matters Booker didn’t “accomplish” anything. He was a voice of one crying in the wilderness. And that’s how you build a dissident movement: with simple acts of witness.

Trump Orders U.S. Exit From the Paris Agreement on Climate The United States will be one of only four countries outside the Paris Agreement, which is designed to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.

“By withdrawing, the United States will join Iran, Libya and Yemen as the only four countries not party to the agreement, under which nations work together to keep global warming below levels that could lead to to environmental catastrophe.”
