Maybe they never needed government money after all.

Billionaire Michael Bloomberg to fund UN climate change body after US exits Paris Agreement

The core of the UNFCCC’s budget comes from its almost 200 member countries.

One of President Donald Trump’s first moves in office this week was to withdraw the US from the Paris Agreement, as he did the first time he was President.

Just three days later, billionaire Michael Bloomberg stepped in to help the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) remain fully funded despite the US ending its international climate contributions.

Bloomberg, the former New York City mayor, a UN special envoy on climate change and, according to the Forbes’ global billionaires list, the 16th richest person in the world, announced his funding pledge on 23 January.

Good for him!  I hope he loses everything.

Fine. Let them put their money where their mouths are--instead of ours.

If more leftists fund their own boondoggles, there might be fewer Leftist boondoggles in the long run.

The left never thinks they've been scammed.  They just think the "new" technology or idea is just administered poorly or is "misunderstood" by consumers.
