12.14.20 | Paris Climate Agreement Why Withdraw

In 2015, UNITED Nations leaders called the $100 billion a year “peanuts” and said that “the $100 billion is the tail that shakes the dog.” In 2015, the Executive Director of the Green Climate Fund said that the estimated funding needs would increase to $450 billion a year after 2020. And no one knows where the money goes. No one could tell where to go? China will be allowed to build hundreds of other coal-fired power plants. Therefore, we cannot build the facilities, but they can, in accordance with this agreement. India can double its coal production by 2020. Remember: India can double its coal production. We have to get rid of it. Europe can also continue to build coal-fired power plants. Federal measures to combat climate change now depend largely on who will take office in January 2021.

The Trump administration is continuing its removal from emissions rules and appointing officials who have made statements that cast doubt on widely accepted climate science in key government positions. But former Vice President Joe Biden has promised to adopt even more ambitious climate change policies than Obama`s. He also said he will take over the United States in the Paris Pact. It would be a relatively simple process and would take place 30 days after Biden`s advice of his intention to join again. But even if a Biden administration acts aggressively against CO2 emissions, Trump`s impact on climate policy could be long-lasting. Under Article 28 of the Paris Agreement, the United States could not file its letter of intent to withdraw by November 4, 2019, three years after the agreement came into force, until one year later. [41] Until the withdrawal takes effect, the United States may be required to meet its obligations under the agreement, including the obligation to continue notifying the United Nations of its emissions. [5] [42] According to a HuffPost memo written by the U.S. State Department`s Legal Department, “attempts to withdraw from the Paris Agreement outside the withdrawal provisions described above would be inconsistent with international law and would not be accepted internationally.” [43] [44] “The public understands that the fight against climate change goes hand in hand with protecting our health and growing our economy,” Bloomberg said in a statement. “We have worked very hard to ensure that every country in the world can join this new agreement. And so, by losing one, we feel like we have failed.

In short, the agreement does not eliminate coal jobs, it only transfers those jobs from the United States and the United States and ships them overseas.
