美总统拜登上任首日随即签署15项行政命令，当中包括重返《巴黎气候协定》。此举遭共和党参议员克鲁兹批评"重视巴黎胜过匹兹堡"，瑞典少女环保少女童贝里（Greta Thunberg）则在社群媒体上嘲讽"欢迎美国重返匹兹堡协定"。
克鲁兹21日在官方推特上写道，"重返巴黎气候协定，显示出总统拜登重视巴黎人的看法，胜过匹兹堡人的工作机会，这项协定对改善气候问题只是杯水车薪，却会损害美国人的生计。"
对此，童贝里虽没有点名任何人，但她在推特上发文说："真高兴美国重返匹兹堡协定，欢迎回来！"
克鲁兹隔日在个人推特上发起活动，"你挺哪边？巴黎还是匹兹堡？如果你支持蓝领劳工联盟，如果你捍卫工作机会，来这裡免费领取"匹兹堡＞巴黎"的保险槓贴纸。"
Greta Thunberg took to social media Thursday to praise President Biden's decision to rejoin the Paris climate accord while mocking Sen. Ted Cruz's （R-Texas） condemnation of the move.
"So happy that USA has finally rejoined the Pittsburgh Agreement. Welcome back!" the teenage climate activist tweeted, renaming the accord to take an implicit jab at Cruz's statement.
Cruz had brought up Pittsburgh on Wednesday night while tweeting his dismay over the United States's reentry into the Paris agreement, shortly after Biden signed the executive order.
"By rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, President Biden indicates he’s more interested in the views of the citizens of Paris than in the jobs of the citizens of Pittsburgh," Cruz wrote. "This agreement will do little to affect the climate and will harm the livelihoods of Americans."
Later Wednesday night, Cruz engaged in war of words on Twitter over the move with comedian Seth Rogen, who called the Texas Republican a "fascist."
"Go encourage a white supremacist insurrection again you f---ing clown," Rogen tweeted at Cruz.
Cruz fired back at Rogan, condemning the "22 Jump Street" star's "charming, civil, educated response."
"If you’re a rich, angry Hollywood celebrity, today’s Dems are the party for you," Cruz added. "If you’re blue-collar, if you’re a union member, if you work in energy or manufacturing...not so much."
