Read the agreement. The US would be giving billions to other countries yearly as part of this agreement. Of course every country on the receiving end is joining!
Completely wrong. This is why all this outrage is nonsense. Nobody took the time to read the fine points.

$100 Billion
"To help developing countries switch from fossil fuels to greener sources of energy and adapt to the effects of climate change, the developed world will provide $100 billion a year," NPR's Chris Joyce, who has been covering the climate conference, reports.
But that amount is identified as a "floor," not a ceiling.
"Developed countries won inclusion of language that would up the ante in subsequent years," Chris explains, "so that financial aid will keep ramping up over time."
