I can’t speak for the US, of course. But my personal Climate Goal is for sunny weather with a temperature between 65 and 80 degrees and humidity that never exceeds 50%. Forever.

Climate goals? Oh, they mean globalist warming jackassery. All designed to increase control, regulations, taxes, etc.

Hiroshima gets *nuked* off the map a few decades back, yet the temperature going up 1 or 2 degrees in the next hundreds years will destroy us?

Jackassery!

Dirty secret, looking at the numbers, if the US continues at the rate of emission drop that it had under the first year of Trump, it will meet or exceed the 2020 and 2025 goals, while the rest of the world raises the total to higher levels. If the reported 2018 numbers hold out, it will exceed those goals. All this without an agreement.

If it started with cities stopping their zoning nuisance rules against tall grass, I would believe it.

But this is about conditioning people tonchange their behavior and makingnthe state flawless despite corrupt

Beyond economic growth the global fight against climate change has encountered a slew of political challenges since 2015 [like] the election of President Donald Trump, who denies the science of climate change.

...

Trump denies the corrupt science of climate change.

And I thought we were doing better than the corrupt countries who stayed in the Paris Scam.

——fight climate change ——

LOL...

Arrogant fools think climate is something we can effect...

Same thing for “Save the planet” nonsense.

How do we save the planet?

I thought we were meeting our CO2 goals in spite of pulling out of the Paris Climate Accord, due simply to changes in the economy?

Completely wrong.
We have NO Goals on climate change.
Thus we are meeting our goals of not doing anything about it.

The entire premise of the article has nothing to do with actual things countries have done, but rather whether they have plans that show them meeting future targets.

The U.S. is actually on target right now.

A funny graphic actually shows also how, when you take into account our forests, we actually have a negative C02 output.

The US doesn’t have any commitments. We withdrew from the Paris Agreement. The other hypocrites who whined incessantly about us withdrawing however do have commitments which they’re not living up to.
