America is Falling Behind On Its Paris Climate Pledge (technologyreview.com)
An anonymous reader shares a report: The US remains well behind pace to meet its commitments to cut greenhouse-gas emissions under the landmark Paris climate agreement. Under current policies, the nation will reduce climate pollution between 12 and 20 percent from 2005 levels by 2025, according to a Rhodium Group analysis published today. That's well below the 26 to 28 percent target agreed to under the Paris accords. The report estimates that total emissions between 2020 and 2030 could be 196 million metric tons lower than Rhodium projected last year. That's due to an increase in the number of planned coal plant closures, as well as the falling costs of natural gas, renewables, and electric vehicles. Slower economic growth forecasts were also a factor.
You are a dumb idiot.
State the truth and get labeled a troll. Liberals hate it when someone disagrees with them. They hate it more when someone disagrees with them and is correct and they are not.
I read at +2. If your post doesn't reach that level I will not see or respond to it.
what biind?! it was not a binding threaty, it was a "we pledge to try" treaty, that smart people understand that is required for our future... sadly dumb people think they are smart than everyone else and refuse to listen to people that understand what they are talking about.
If there is no mention in the "Good Book" for global warming, for sure everyone else is lying... but i'm sure that it have some hidden reference that communists Russians, Chinese and European are all trying to deceive the holy american people
