the headline was taken from the Mexican president, but I'm sure there are a great many who believe the headline to be accurate...it is not.

Donald Trump did for the wrong reasons, what should have been done for reasons he doesn't understand. He essentially based the US withdrawal on a limited view of American economic interests. That was foolish, global warming will seriously affect America''s interests. The problem with Paris, was not that it didn't specifically protect US economic interests, it was that the Paris accord was never going to achieve its objectives of preventing global temperature rise from exceeding specified targets. 

The Paris accord is a political document that should have been a technical one... carbon markets and 100 billion Green Climate Funds , increasing by design would have failed without question in a world which moves by the election cycle and non democratic fiat...a world wide technology  treaty to address global warming had a chance...the world blew it.
