FOIA Lawsuit filed over State Department role in forging Paris Climate Agreement

An interesting story about a new FOIA request lawsuit asking for info about the U.S. State Department and one person who may have been pressing some kind of agenda about Climate Change and China.

Specifically about keeping the Global Warming agenda going in the Trump Administration.

Apparently some groups involved have been getting the old cold shoulder.

Perhaps the new State Dept people will get the info out and exposed.

It's about the Paris Climate "Agreement" signed under the Obama Administration.

FOIA Lawsuit filed over State Department role in forging Paris Climate Agreement

E&E Legal Again Forced to Sue State Department for Public Records
Department fails to even acknowledge Request for specific correspondence with and about key green lobbyist who boasted of recruitment by China to organize Post-Obama Climate Agenda

Washington, DC – Today the Energy & Environment Legal Institute (E&E Legal) and the Free Market Environmental Law Clinic (FME Law) filed suit against the Trump Administration Department of State (State). This Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) suit seeks specific records to, from or discussing green-group lobbyist Jennifer Morgan of the World Resources Institute. The requests at issue followed up information obtained by E&E Legal about a coordinated effort, with State’s assistance, between green pressure groups and China to keep the climate gravy train chugging in the post-Obama world.

Specifically, on January 25, 2017, E&E Legal and FME Law submitted a request to the Trump State Department seeking copies of copies of all electronic correspondence sent to or from six State officials sent to or from Jennifer Morgan and which use “China” or several other specific words.

These records are of even greater public interest given recent reports of parties having derailed President Trump’s promise to “cancel” the purported U.S. agreement to the December 2015 Paris climate treaty, which he had unambiguously declared was “bad for US business” and allows “foreign bureaucrats control over how much energy we use”.

Hmmm

I bet it comes out they "seem to be missing".

China benefits by us being under restrictions on climate change. They just have to reduce their footprint, but didn't sign into it in the first place anyway. See, if we can't raise production, they are guaranteed stability in their exports.
