President Donald Trump has outright called climate change “the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world,” which pretty much tells you why he’s going to snub the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP-30) in Brazil.

According to Fox, it’s not just the President who’s pushing this idea, though.
