Donald Trump's withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement threatens the future of it. Now, whispers of Brazil's withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement is heard. Seems Brazil's withdrawal influenced by the withdrawal of USA. Under this situation, will other countries also withdraw from the agreement?
In your opinion, how will the withdrawal of these countries affect the future of this agreement?
Many agree with climate science and are concerned. Some do not and no matter how good the research, they wont be convinced. For the present, anyway. At one time, common thought was the earth was flat, and scientists were persecuted for their arguments. Scientists are still compiling information, and there is more compelling information, on glaciers melting, sea level rising, ocean areas warming contributing to storm severity, etc. Eventually, more will continue to come around and accept that there is an issue to address. Not everyone or every area is equally affected, so that may be part of the ability to accept information which cannot be seen or affect the way one lives or earns a living. Many local areas and individuals continue to go Green or to otherwise conserve to help reduce pollution and slow warming trends.
I thing each country have responsibility to solve this problem or try to reduce different kind of pollutants
Countries withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement is due to economic consideration. Actually this agreement somehow is tool and limitations only for developing counties. USA withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement just to show that without him can't survive any agreement. )
Other countries will start to think about to quit from this agreement. Ultimately, Pandora's box will open and mother earth will suffer.
Truth is if other countries are considering withdrawal from the Paris Climate agreement because of the influence if the USA they didn't believe in the cause in the first place. Making it unsustainable. The USA has a right to withdraw but the UN should make more efforts to keep the other countries committed.
I am hopeful that it will signal an end to this political agreement as an actual consideration and relegate it to an historical footnote in the foreseeable future. My thought is that it was more of an international wealth distribution strategy than an actual environmental problem, and that the teaching and practice of science has been seriously degraded in this process. More of a racket than a hoax, and more of a hoax than a reality: the Cardiff Giant and Lysenkoism are its historical forebears. In my opinion.
The Paris climate agreement is misguided. CO2, in spite of being a ghg, has little if any effect on climate. Eight examples of compelling evidence are given in Section 2 of http://globalclimatedrivers2.blogspot.com with explanation of why in Section 5.
All reporting agencies agree there has been little or no change in average global temperature since about 2002.
CO2 has increased since 2002 by 40% of the increase 1800 to 2002
Given this latest and two previous 30+ year downtrends in temperature with relentlessly rising CO2, demonstrate that apparently CO2 has little if any effect on average global temperature.
that is a political process and I hope that countries which can make a difference will live up to their responsibilities. People of these countries can influence their politicians, and they also can make a difference by using resources more efficiently and help in making a difference.
