"1: This isn't how climate change works," Beyer tweeted. "2: We weren't paying trillions of dollars. You didn't understand the Paris Agreement in June and you still don't." "3: Climate Change is real," he added. "It is a serious threat to our children. You need people on your team who can explain this to you." 1: This isn't how climate change works. 2: We weren't paying trillions of dollars.

Don Beyer (@RepDonBeyer) December 29, 2017 In a tweet earlier Thursday night, Trump suggested that "global warming" (an outdated term in the science community to describe climate change) could be helpful for alleviating cold temperatures reported across the northeastern United States, as well as erroneously suggesting that the United States would be the only country to contribute money under the Paris climate agreement. "In the East, it could be the COLDEST New Year's Eve on record. Perhaps we could use a little bit of that good old Global Warming that our Country, but not other countries, was going to pay TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS to protect against. Bundle up!" the president tweeted. In the East, it could be the COLDEST New Year's Eve on record.

Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 29, 2017 Trump announced in June that the U.S. would exit the Obama-era Paris climate agreement in a speech at the White House. The 195-nation agreement seeks to curb carbon emissions and other greenhouse gasses in order to fight climate change. The earliest date the U.S. can exit the agreement is November 4, 2020.
