At the COP27 climate talks, President Biden said the U.S. is following through on its promises to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2030: 'We're proving that good climate policy is good economic policy.'

The U.S. has pledged to cut its greenhouse gas emissions between 50 and 52% by 2030. The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, which incentivizes electric cars and more efficient buildings, was a. Still, more will need to be done. Currently, U.S. emissions are expected to fall roughly 39% by 2030. Developing countries are frustrated with the U.S. and wealthier nations, who they say owe them reparations for increasingly destructive climate impacts. Top leaders for two countries that emit some of the most greenhouse gas pollution, India and China, aren't attending the talks. The war in Ukraine is also driving a new push for fossil fuels, as countries try to wean themselves off natural gas from Russia.

Developing countries blackmailing us. Wonder where this money actually goes? Any climate change is naturally occurring and no amount of money or restrictions on greenhouse gas will make a difference. Democrats literally gaslighting us.

China sponsors NPR.

Really? Our economy is crashed!

No. They’re not. Quite the opposite.

As we FORCE our citizens to cover for some of the most toxic producing counties in the world. And the rich continue to live their rich lives...

Lol! Did you here Biden lose his marbles in Egypt? How embarrassing for our country.

Heat causes global warming, not CO₂. Everybody knows that now.

He will bankrupt this nation.

Question…did all of “representatives” from America and from abroad take the same private plate or did they take their own as they preach abt greenhouse gas omissions? When they start carpooling and/or take public transit I will start to listen

Proving the exact opposite actually. Nice job blowing up American wealth to change a climate measure that you can’t measure. POTUS sorry… *Potatus at it again

Greenwashing. Emissions continue to go up.

“Proving?” Lol.. this bullshit destroys economies

400 private planes flew to this conference. 400!

Unfortunately, nowhere near fast enough. POTUS this will legitimately cause irreparable and permanent damage to the environment if we aren’t carbon neutral by half that time… stop offering fake green promises and you wouldn’t get called an old puppet led by fake progressives…

Yeah this is greenwashing. Emissions continue to rise and 1.5 degrees Celsius is now all but impossible.

But let's continue to buy crap made in China.

Globalist hypocrites

No, we're not. Biden keeps promising MORE OIL. Ffs, potus, we can stop relying on oil 100%!

🙏🏻💙🫂

Out of touch and tone deaf. This will crush an already faltering economy.

🤣

Thank God his promise is meaningless. This would destroy the US economy to no purpose. There is no climate crisis.

Well, until the next administration at least.

COP27 is sponsored by Coca Cola! NPR is corporate!!!

Lol, a capitalist country could never. Fuck outta here 🤣🤣

There’s no proof

It's amazing how no one else can see where this is going.
