I agree with the OP. Also really good point about him doing it strategically. I think he is way more strategic than people give him credit for. I think we should opt out. Scientist have been telling me the world is going to end due to pollution since the early 80s. I think taking care of the environment is good but not at an extreme expense to the economy. Further I don't agree with those that say we are sacrificing economic security today for millions of lost lives later. You have no way of knowing that and it is your opinion and that is it. 

Science is not an opinion.

Science is not an opinion, but scientists do speak about opinions quite often.

The science says climate change is real. How much of it is due to or can be changed by human activity is an opinion. Yes, we know that carbon emissions are bad. but we don't know how much it changes the equation. Scientists are humans too - they speculate on things beyond the facts as well.
