No, not a lie...an inconvenient truth (pun intended).... because all countries control of carbon emissions is VOLUNTARY.....each country sets it's own limits and pays according to a formula that Obama was instrumental in establishing.  China, India and Russia continue to pollute and the USA is expected to pony $18 b a year to a FUND run by the UN.  Not clear how this money is used. Obama made a bad deal.....all to establish his precious LEGACY.  The alternative energy industry in the USA can continue to grow within the USA, because most of the world can't and won't afford the cost of the alternative energy technology....not for a very long time anyway.
