During talks with Chinese leaders in Tianjin, US climate envoy John Kerry presented a list of proposals for Beijing to accelerate its climate efforts. They included a public commitment to the 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) limit of global warming targeted in the 2015 Paris Agreement, a definite time frame for carbon emissions to peak before 2030, and a moratorium on financing overseas coal-fired projects. But the two sides failed to reach agreement, according to the source, who requested anonymity.

I think Xi had it touched up a bit.
Yooou Raaang?

I also thought senior politicians or bureaucrats didn’t go into meetings without knowing well ahead the agreement or disagreement.
Why didn’t Scary (he served in Viet Nam y’know :) insist on 20.7 degrees Fahrenheit decrease instead of just 2.7? Both have an equal chance of being implemented.
The thugs of the world cannot believe their good luck that Biden is president of the U.S.It wasn't luck. It was by design with the help of the Chinese and the never-Trump Tucker/Bair/Ryan/Fox News cabal.
The blood on Fox News hands can never be washed off.
Why rong face?
Environmentalists sure, but John Kerry . . . not so much.
🤣😅🤣😅🤣😅
