  • Apple, other tech companies pledge to continue efforts to meet Paris climate accord

    The Paris accord is nothing more than words and little action. There is no enforcement of the agreement and you know countries are going to cheat. It's a money pit for the USA. Wealthy nations agreed to pay $100 billion a year to poorer nations and you know which country will be paying the most. The USA of course. The bottom line is the Paris accord does nothing for the environment. People need to realize globalist politics aren't going to solve environmental problems. 
    I do not know if you have trouble with numbers but $3b in total for the US (not per year). And the us per capita contribution lands us 32nd.

    that isnt a terrible deal for a nation which polluted more than any other nation. And currently we are more than double the amount than any other country per person.

    Good. It would be wonderful if the print version also went out of business.
    Yeah why don't we shutdown all this pesky Journalist thingy and have people Tweet pictures of cats instead that would deficiently safeguard a democratic society. 

    And while we are at it lets elect Trump, he is an awesome tweeter..

    Mainstream media is no longer trusted by the public to be objective and fair. Be it left or right the "reporting" is as biased as it gets. MSNBC watchers love to denigrate Fox News watchers and vice versa. News outlets today are little more than ideological operatives on both sides. The editorial page used to be the place where opinions and politics were presented without the pretext of objectivity. Now every article turns into a political or social diatribe. News reporters are now ideologues cloaking themselves in the mantel of "journalism." And each side would like to muzzle the other if they could... and have tried to. So we watch the channel that best reinforces our own bias and ideology. 
    Well I do not watch TV, this is just one of the reasons why. On the other hand you can hardly argue that neither MSNBC nor Fox employs any journalists, can you?
    Their shows are pure entertainment.
    Reading an investigate piece in any great newspaper will provide you with information and not just some bobble head ejaculating point of views.

    don't think they could fit 3D touch on such a small phone.
    It fits in the watch
