Obama Promises Higher Emissions Reduction In Less Time Than China
Just saw this. I found it pretty unpleasant. In a summit with China's President Xi Jinping he agreed to reduce the United State's emissions by 26-28% by the year 2025 while China is only expected to reduce their greenhouse emissions by 20% by the year 2030. To put this in perspective, the US currently accounts for 19% of the world's emissions while China accounts for 23%. So why are we reducing our output by a higher percentage at a faster rate than China?

Because it is the right thing to do. Want to remain a world leader? Then lead where it counts.

Ahh, you're a believer of Climate Change. And before that "Global Warming" until that was debunked.

What does it hurt to try and reduce emissions? Everyone should believe in climate change. It's the argument that it's man made or not that people are for or against. And yes Jay this is just something to make him look better. Nothing will change dramatically enough to make a difference.

You do not know what you are talking about. Which leads me to believe you are watching too much FOX News rather than reading. FWIW, I have NEVER watched more than 10 minutes of MSNBC. Don't even know where it is on the dial.

Yep, so where did the Term "Global Warming" Go?
Oh because that was false. Those darn scientists! Quick, change the name to "Climate Change"!
Oh and I love your defensive attitude. Just shows me you're ready to start throwing insults to try to debate.
Like normal liberals do when they're wrong.

So is EVERY politician in the world that makes commitments for his/her country that extend into the future considered liars, or do you just reserve all that for Obama?
You do know how these types of agreements work, don't you?
That's what I thought. Just another feeble attempt to attack Obama. I'm sure it works on the ignorant.
