Groups argue US participation in the UN Climate Change Conference wastes taxpayer money and compromises national security.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0By\u00a0Emma Colton<\/a> Fox News<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/strong>A coalition of conservative energy and environmental groups are calling on leaders within the Trump administration to snub the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference in Brazil as President\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0rails against climate change as the “greatest con job ever.” Fox News<\/a> has the story.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As President Trump rightly moves our nation away from climate alarmism, there is nothing to be gained from participating in an anti-American international effort that is designed to cripple the U.S. energy system and economy, compromise our national security, and steal from U.S. taxpayers under the guise of climate aid and\/or reparations,” a group of seven conservative energy and environment groups wrote in a letter exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital Friday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The U.N. Climate Change Conference is a yearly event that brings together leaders worldwide to map out and negotiate measures to limit climate change<\/a>. The conference will be held in Brazil for 2025, running from Nov. 10 through Nov. 21. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The letter was addressed to Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator\u00a0Lee Zeldin<\/a>\u00a0and Secretary of Energy Chris Wright. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signatories of the letter included the Energy & Environment Legal Institute, American Energy Institute, Heartland Institute, Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT), Truth in Energy and Climate, CO2 Coalition and American Lands Council.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It\u2019s time America walked away from the U.N.\u2019s endless climate conferences, which have never improved the environment but have impoverished billions while enriching China,” Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, told Fox News Digital of the letter. “By refusing to send a delegation to COP-30, the administration can send a clear message: America will no longer be a victim of the global climate hoax.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
