Thousands of protesters took to the streets of Bonn to call for more action to fight climate change.

The US was the focus of a lot of anger, and has been since President Donald Trump withdrew his country from the Paris Agreement in June this year.

Also present in Bonn were American delegates representing some 50% of the US economy. They were at the UN Climate Conference in Germany to voice their support for urgent climate change and to strongly condemn President Donald Trump's environmental policy.

They emphasised their commitment to fighting climate change - despite Trump's decision to pull out of the Paris Accord.

You folks who have your eyes closed need to pull the scales from your eyes.
How can you be so uncaring about your environment that you refuse to face facts or at least have an open mind.
Your thinking isn't clear.

Why are the buildings set up for this event using huge diesel powered generators that are pumping pollution into the air for their lights and heat? And why are the generators running 24 hrs a day, even when the buildings are empty? If they really cared about their cause they would just wear a coat and use rechargeable batteries.

I m pretty confident that it is already too late to fight climat change and that humans will be wiped out with attrocious pain very soon. It will be the best news for Earth and well deserve for human race.

Well, as it stands, America has to remain 'in' until after the next election; and, as per the Paris Accord, it is only recommended that 'we do something', not mandated that anybody do anything in particular. So even if Trump fails to fulfill the spirit of the agreement, the body remains alive. For now. ["Clean Coal": pffft. What an idiot. 'Cleaner Coal' perhaps, but never 'clean' as such.]
