"....The most consequential change of all, however, occurred in the United
States, where the Democratic Party — adherents to the global warming
orthodoxy — first lost control of the Congress and then the presidency
to the Republicans under President Donald Trump, an outspoken critic of
the global-warming lobby. When Trump abandoned the Paris climate accord
in favour of coal and other carbon-based fuels, the world’s leaders rose
up almost as one in outrage. Today, with the U.S. having revived its
coal industry, having become the world’s largest oil producer and having
propelled its once-moribund economic growth rates past the others,
those world leaders are following America’s lead while falling silent on
Paris. The once-powerful United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change, formerly a fixture in the news, is defanged and
forgotten, having lost its U.S. funding and its relevance."
