King Solomon, Wisdom for Environmental and Political Activists


Is there another path other than blaming President Trump that will significantly improve the earth's atmosphere and pollution?

The Chicago Tribune article titled, Trump’s UN envoy nominee defends climate record, reports that Trump's nominee stated: “she believes human behavior has contributed to climate change and she will push counties to deal with it,  However she also said the United States should not have to bear an “outside burden” in mitigating its effects.”
The Purpose of This Post
Is to suggest one of the simplest remedies for all Nations to immediately do now until the Paris Accord can influence all Nations to embrace to strengthen a common cord to strengthen our planets natural greatest environmental natural abilities of control against everything except human beings’ folly.
King Solomon
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 New International Version (NIV)
9 Two are better than one,
    because they have a good return for their labor:
10 If either of them falls down,
    one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
    and has no one to help them up.
11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
    But how can one keep warm alone?
12 Though one may be overpowered,
    two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
What’s My Point?
The article explains President Trump reason for pulling out of the Paris Accord: “We don’t need to be a member to show leadership” she said, arguing that developing countries like China and India were not being asked to make the same contributions as the United States.”
A comparison of percentages of population of the five
leading countries is as follows:
#Country (or dependency)Population

1China1,420,062,022   9,388,211    18.41 %
2India1,368,737,513   2,973,190    17.74 %
3United States329,093,110   9,147,420    4.27 %
4Indonesia269,536,482   1,811,570    3.49 %
5Brazil212,392,717   8,358,140    2.75 %
Consider these two 2019 statistics.
  1. Being that the Paris Accord for some reason decided that the USA, which comprises on 4.27 % of the world’s population should bear a higher number of “cords” (costs) than India and China 18.4 and 17.7 percentages respectively.
  2. Brazil has the largest land mass but only has 2.75 percent of human population, yet their political policies perhaps has one of the greatest capacities to maintain our planets natural abilities of environment control.
My point is that the concept that the USA should bear the leadership role and consequences of the world’s environment without total agreement by the world to participate is folly.
For example, in a previous post I explained how Brazil in the last year cut down as many trees as the country size of Brazil or Madagascar by engaging in deforestation.
Trees are and have been the greatest natural ability to maintain climate control and pollution since the beginning of time.
In My Opinion
If every Nation would immediately start planting trees to help our control environment and end all deforestation, the cords will help offset the effects of a population growth, or humans’ environmental path to help improve earth’s environment.
The same advice of King Solomon’s proverb how three cords are better than one should be applied to the Paris Accord.
Instead of complaining about President Trump, everyone in the USA should begin complaining about deforestation in their Nation as well as the folly taking place in Brazil that is contributing to other natural forest barriers being reduced because of environmental pollutions, ice melting in attics, and extinction of animals that naturally contribute to maintaining forests.

You Decide
Will excluding the most populous or least populous countries or land areas from Paris Accord strengthen or weaken our planet’s natural abilities to provide natural abilities to be maintained environmentally?
Will complaining about President Trump to be personally responsible for all of the worlds environmental folly result in stronger or weaker cord to help preserve our planets natural abilities to sustain climate control same as it has for the previous millions of years?
