Irony is, most of these countries did not even make a measurable commitment to reduce CO2 emissions.
By the way, what are we up to as far as warming goes since the 1980s? How close to the end of the world are we?
Everyone knew this other than a couple deluded fools. But they went ahead with it anyway as a way for politicians to gain more control over private industry in the West. That’s all this ever was. A justification for a massive tax increase and a host of new regulations on industry. More control. Everyone knew that the Third World countries like Gambia and Ethiopia, and developing countries like India, weren’t going to come close to the targets. Hillary would have played along to advance the country’s move toward Socialism. Trump at least stopped that.
Near as I can tell it ended when this American Hero got on the plane and flew home.
Global warming is the fantasy.
Cooling and warming cycles are definite, everytime the ice melted it released dissolved and trapped CO2 into the atmosphere.
It is the warming which releases CO2 , not CO2 which canuses warming.
They have never been able to prove which drove what, but ice core data are ademment as well as basic physics. Warm water boils out disolved gases in the air. Ice cubes are cloudy because the gas is pushed towards the core, or downward and underneath in ice lakes, stored away naturally.
Man does not control nature
This was planned by the globalists as a massive transfer of wealth from us to them. Climate was just a plausible excuse.
Paris always looked like fantasy from the scientific and engineering perspectives.
They pretended that
1) a non-binding agreement
2) to commit to making efforts
3) that weren’t technically possible yet
4) and still won’t meet their stated goals
was going to save the planet from a problem they can’t show exists using physical/observational scientific studies - the problem can only be shown to exist in a theoretical world (models).
And they call the rest of us “deniers”.
Anyone who thought that was significant was living in a fantasy world. Or, like Gore, acquiring fame, money, and vacations by selling this fantasy to others.
Being able to affect climate change is also a fancy.
Here’s a question for the alarmist wackos... Over the past several million years, what percentage of that time has greenland been covered with ice?
