“The United States saw the largest decline in energy-related CO2 emissions in 2019 on a country basis — a fall of 140 [million tons], or 2.9%, to 4.8 gigatons],” the Paris-based International Energy Agency (IEA) revealed in a report Tuesday.

The entire European Union, which consists of 28 nations, meanwhile only lowered emissions by 160 million tons total, or roughly 5.71 mt per nation.”

We should threaten Europe that if they don’t match our reductions, we will impose “climate change tariffs” on all their goods.

Can’t do the comparative math here. What is % of EU decline?

When we take credit for CO2 reduction that is not needed, we are playing the Greta game. Greta’s crowd is not going to give us any credit for saying, “We’re not so bad — our emissions are lower than theirs.”
