U.S. Government takes on Paris Climate Agreement

Finally U.S. Government and other nations joined in Paris Climate Agreement for healthy climate changes. The goal was to decrease at least half of 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Many people argues that this will not cure entire greenhouse gases, and carbon emission  from developing countries such as China and India because they contain no legal requirements. This is voluntary actions from already developed countries to appropriate money to poor countries about $100 billion a year. The countries do not want to make blames on the developing or poor countries as they did not follow the rules. And also the reason is following statement.

"That hybrid legal structure was explicitly designed in response to the political reality in the United States. A deal that would have assigned legal requirements for countries to cut emissions at specific levels would need to go before the United States Senate for ratification. That language would have been dead on arrival in the Republican-controlled Senate, where many members question the established science of human-caused climate change, and still more wish to thwart Mr. Obama’s climate change agenda." New York Times.

Mr Xi, president of China complained certain undeveloped areas need progress of development that there is no other way around from still developing. After Obama's announcements, Republicans argued middle-income classes does not have enough money for it to continue while wealthy individuals can. This is worth reading because how climate changes affected Republicans party's takes on Climate changes and they agreed to do so because it is such a global issue. While they united on climate agreements, the nations will reconvene every five years.
