WASHINGTON — The White House on Tuesday morning unveiled President Obama’s blueprint for cutting United States greenhouse gas pollution by nearly a third over the next decade.
Mr. Obama’s plan, part of a formal submission to the United Nations ahead of efforts to forge a climate change accord in Paris in December, detailed the United States side of an ambitious joint climate change pledge the president made in November in Beijing with the Chinese president Xi Jinping.
In an effort to spur other countries to enact their own domestic climate change plans leading to the Paris accord, the leaders of the world’s two largest greenhouse gas polluters offered the outline of a set of climate actions. Mr. Obama said the United States would cut emissions 26 to 28 percent by 2025, while Mr. Xi said that China’s emissions would drop after 2030.

No Problem. Having taught Science for 35 years I am well aware that man has not caused the climate to change .As a matter of fact I grew up in NE PA that happened to be a jungle 300 million years ago and bout 10,000 years was covered in ice at least a mile thick.Shit happens,NATURALLY!
It’s been apparent that congress can’t or won’t handle this white hut dumbass. We’re getting real close to the need to assume the powers reserved to the PEOPLE under the Tenth Amendment and clean out the white hut and all the treasonous vermin holed up there. Semper Fi
“Even the brain dead masses who agree that “we need to do something about global warming” would think twice if they knew that it would cost them more.”
No they would not, they would “feel” more, they don’t know how to think, they can only imagine that they are thinking. People who have never thought once are not likely to think twice.
Thanks for the heads up. A new EPA leader and a new president can change Bammy’s rules and methods.
