Last night the U.S. and China announced a major breakthrough on climate change– an agreement that could create important political momentum internationally. The U.S. committed to reducing its carbon emissions by 26% to 28% below its 2005 emissions and China promised to reduce its carbon emissions after 2030, a step it had previously refused to even consider. These commitments are sure to have an impact worldwide as all countries begin to set their new carbon reductions.
The US and China deserve to be recognized for this effort. Let’s applaud them but also let them know we need them to continue taking strong measures to address the threat of climate change. We ALL can help.

Thank you for your visit and comment ! I think it would be easy to just say … We have to start somewhere, but I think there is just so much more going on …like the amount of carbon emission levels they have or shutting down their plants to clear the air before his visit which is sad, but you can’t make this stuff up even if it’s symbolic
