Donald Trump said "We will also cancel billions in global warming payments to the United Nations, and use that money to support America's vital environmental infrastructure and natural resources," according to News Max.
On the other hand, the side of the democrats often takes the opposite subtlety in Florida when it comes to global warming. Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign has pointed out that the flooding in Miami Beach is an evidence of global warming's terrible effects.
Hillary Clinton also attacked Donald Trump for addressing the global warming as a Chinese "hoax." The former secretary of state also shared that the global warming help strengthened Hurricane Matthew when it badly hit Florida's eastern coastline last October.
Meanwhile, while Donald Trump's plan is to give back the billions of dollars from the taxpayers, President Barack Obama promises to give the UN's Green Climate Fund or the GCF. Obama pledged that he will give GCF $3 billion, as of now he already released over $500 million to fund GCF.
Donald Trump added that "We're spending hundreds of billions of dollars. We don't even know who's doing what with the money, promising to spend that money in the U.S. instead. We're going to work on our own environment. That includes repairing the Herbert Hoover Dike in Lake Okeechobee, protecting the Florida Everglades," according to Daily Caller.
