They say states and cities will help reduce U.S. emissions by 19 percent from 2025 compared to 2005 – that`s not enough to keep up with the U.S. promise under Paris, but it keeps those goals « at hand. » On the corporate side, shareholders in major fossil fuel industries are increasingly in a hurry to meet the climate challenge. In June 2017, Mr. Trump held a press conference in the White House Rose Garden promising to withdraw from the agreement and said he was unfair to the United States, which would leave the agreement and then begin negotiations on readmission or a new agreement « on a level playing field for the United States. » The Paris Agreement on Combating Climate Change is universal in that it applies to all countries. It creates a new international climate regime that moves away from the Kyoto Protocol, which was aimed only at historical emitters and applied a top-down approach. Even most countries have not contributed to the great threat to human life posed by climate change, but now all countries – not just the largest historical emitters – must do their part. The space remaining in the atmosphere for greenhouse gases (also known as the CARBONE budget) is now too little to pursue emissions if we are to avoid the dangerous effects of climate and irreversible consequences. The need for action is so great and urgent that no one on this planet can continue or wish to live fossil fuels and a Western consumer lifestyle. And developing countries must avoid repeating the ecological mistakes of historical emitters. However, it is important to remember that the Paris agreement is not static.
Instead, it must strengthen countries` national efforts over time – meaning that current commitments are the terrain, not the ceiling, of climate change ambitions. Labor`s emissions – continuing to reduce emissions by 2030 and 2050 – have yet to be implemented and the agreement provides the instruments to ensure that this happens. In 2015, UNITED Nations leaders called the $100 billion a year « peanuts » and said that « the $100 billion is the tail that shakes the dog. » In 2015, the Executive Director of the Green Climate Fund said that the estimated funding needs would increase to $450 billion a year after 2020. And no one knows where the money goes. No one could tell where to go? Maintaining the agreement could also be serious obstacles for the United States when we begin to implement the restrictions on the abundant energy reserves of the United States, which we have very strongly initiated.
