Climate Hoax: Not A Single G-20 Country Is Close To Hitting CO2 Emission Targets

Investors Business Daily ^ | 11/15/2018

Environmentalism: A new report calls the lie on the grand Paris climate change treaty. None of the promised cuts in CO2 emissions that 200-plus countries made will come close to preventing a climate "catastrophe." And many of the industrialized nations aren't even living up to the promises they did make.

Two years ago, when the Paris agreement took effect, then-President Obama declared that "history may well judge it as a turning point for our planet."

Another big lie by that great liar Obama.

Gomer says, “surprise, surprise, surprise”.

[Spok]

It’s all about talking and feeling good. Nothing else.

[TruthInThoughtWordAndDeed]

It is a scam.

First. Last. Always.

"As the Climate Transparency report notes, the EU "is not on track to meet its 2030 target." Nor is Mexico, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan or Turkey."

Maybe that's because it wasn't about global warming, but a scam to suck more wealth out of the US, not to mention the stupid carbon exchanges, which would have been nothing more than skimming operations that took their cut while virtue signaling.

[Mr. Mojo]

Empty rhetoric and virtue signaling.

The progs’ M.O.

Great, now we are all going to die....

[Reily]

CO2 climate requirements has always been a “boat anchor” that Climate, etc signatory nations have always wanted to hang around the US’s economic neck! They have no intention of following it, there will be one million creative excuses why they didn’t and two million why we must!

[SaxxonWoods]

Yeah, but they signed on and that’s all that matters. Good intentions are the key, actual performance isn’t required.

“A number of G-20 countries actually saw their emissions increase in 2017, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Korea and Turkey.”

Not only that but the much predicted global warming catastrophe isn’t happening and temperatures are actually cooling likely due to reduced solar activity.

It is mostly being done at the state level and each state is different. So look at the renewable standards in Colorado and California.

Next month they are having the COP24 meeting in Poland and they will try to adopt the rules on implementing the COP21 agreement in Paris 2015.

All of this stuff is back loaded and based on falling prices. The price of lithium batteries have fallen from $1000/kwh in 2010 to $200/kwh today and will continue to fall.

China passed the US in 2016. They have more renewables and more electric cars.

That’s at least 13 out of 19 that aren’t America.
