Показать описание
This video explains the basics of the Paris Agreement: the international UN treaty of 2015 that aims to tackle climate change head on.
It's central aim is to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate change by keeping a global temperature rise this century well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, with ambition to limit the increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Additionally, the agreement aims to strengthen the ability of countries to deal with the impacts of climate change.

Produced by: @UN Climate Change

--------

The Paris Agreement is a legally binding international treaty on climate change. It was adopted by 196 Parties at COP 21 in Paris, on 12 December 2015 and entered into force on 4 November 2016.

Its goal is to limit global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels.

To achieve this long-term temperature goal, countries aim to reach global peaking of greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible to achieve a climate neutral world by mid-century.

The Paris Agreement is a landmark in the multilateral climate change process because, for the first time, a binding agreement brings all nations into a common cause to undertake ambitious efforts to combat climate change and adapt to its effects.

Don't you mean "How doesn't it work"? or "Why doesn't it work"?

It works like this: we take your money and do nothing for you.

Governments around the world devote significant amounts of public money towards energy research and come up with patents and it is only right and just for those departments to become their own profit centers and to collect royalties upon said patents to motivate them to create more and more exciting energy projects. The economic incentives would greatly align towards our own energy needs and we can prevent global warming from getting any worse that it is today. And we shall assist you in these processes in many ways too because we know how very worried all of you are about all of this in general. Its time to unlock clean energy and put the pedal to the metal so to speak. And energy demand will only grow and grow and grow over time too so the economics will balance out nicely for the upcoming fourth industrial revolution too.
