the paris accord is political grandstanding on an international scale, and it does nothing to change behaviors and policies of individual states and companies within those states. china and india polluters will continue to pollute and signee cuntries can't do a thing about it. u.s., major contributor to pollutants as she's a humungous economy and consumer of energy, will continue to pollute but at least behavior and policies at the state, county, city, company and consumer levels are changing.....for the better to keep air and environment clean. need no stinking political grandstanding to keep in line. paris accord is just that. worthless agreement that cannot be enforced by collective govs. ultimately it rests with citizens and residents.
If the world is serious about going green, the whole world has to make a pact on this and take action. Agreed!!
