Elon Musk and Disney boss quit Trump’s business panel over Paris pullout…
thought this was interesting - have seen a couple of Mayors of US cities say similar things…

Yeah, I read an article somewhere that said the industry is still likely going forward in support of renewable energy/going green because it’s expensive to change from one system to another; there is expectation that future policy will force the regulations anyway; and so to do it now allows for a gradual switch over instead of the enormous expense of meeting a sudden and abrupt deadline.
Absolutely, and this may be of further interest…
‘If Trump actually wanted to renegotiate the Paris agreement, he just shot himself in the foot’:-
when he claimed he could shoot someone and not lose support, i don’t think any of us thought he meant he could shoot himself.
