A French astronaut who just returned to Earth after living in space for 196 days threw some subtle shade at U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from a landmark international climate agreement last week.

"I took the #ParisAgreement to the ISS: from space,family Archives climate change is very real. Some could probably use the view #MakeOurPlanetGreatAgain," Thomas Pesquet tweeted in French and later in English. The tweet was accompanied by a photo of the Paris Agreement itself, floating on the International Space Station (ISS) near a window pointing toward Earth.

By saying that "some could probably use the view," Pesquet appears to be subtweeting Trump and his apparent willful ignorance when it comes to climate change.

Trump has appointed a number of climate deniers to his cabinet, and at one point, he claimed that climate change was a hoax.

During his Rose Garden speech announcing his Paris Agreement decision, Trump never acknowledged the reality, let alone the seriousness, of human-caused global warming. Instead, he railed against the agreement's potential to cost American jobs, using projections which many researchers view as flawed.

Not all world leaders see it Trump's way. In fact, almost none of them do.

By withdrawing the U.S. from the Paris Agreement, the country will join only Nicaragua and Syria as holdouts. (To be fair, however, Nicaragua refused to sign on because the country's diplomats thought the agreement didn't go far enough in preventing climate change.)

The hashtag Pesquet used -- a play on Trump's "MAGA" slogan -- echoes a rallying cry from French President Emmanuel Macron that he used during a speech on June 1 after Trump's announcement.

"I call on you to remain confident," Macron said during the speech delivered in English. "We will succeed because we are fully committed. Because wherever we live, whoever we are, we all share the same responsibility, make our planet great again."

The photo attached to the tweet shows an inscription written to Pesquet from former French president François Hollande, one of the architects behind the agreement, which was signed in 2015.

Pesquet's tweet also hit upon a shift in perspective that astronauts experience during their trips to the Space Station.

Instead of seeing borders separating people, as we often do while living on the planet, flying 250 miles above Earth can lend a person a new understanding that we're all in this together.

From space, Earth's atmosphere looks like a thin strip of blue. We appear fragile.

Many astronauts spend their free time just looking down at Earth, picking out features on different continents, but from that high up, you can't see what divides us, only what unifies.
