US rejoins the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement


I'm glad to see that the US is officially to rejoin the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, reversing the withdrawal by Donald Trump.  Each year we wait to not invest into mitigation today will exacerbate in the future the cost of adapting. Actually, we would need greenhouse gas level to be net to zero by the end of 2050. 🌲🌳🌳🌲


From the early 1800s, coal, oil and gas have been burnt, and have been releasing gases that trap heat from the sun. That's the main raison why there is now more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than there has been for million of years.

Unfortunately, despite governments around the world are aware of planet earth's ecological limits, temperature is still going up. 🏭🚢✈

The last picture of the two donkeys has nothing to do with global warming. I took it yesterday while I was walking through the countryside. There was some grass around the fence, on the side, so I decided to feed them. 🐎🐎

    1. Right, Veronica! I have never heard of such deadly winter storm in Texas and US southern States.
      In addition, a record number hurricanes, wildfires and floods exacerbated by climate change cost the world $ 210 in 2020 ... I hope it not too late!

  5. Un post interessante che induce alla riflessione. Personalmente sono felice che gli States siano tornati a socializzare con il resto del mondo e a parlare e condividere problemi che ci coinvolgono tutti. Buona giornata con un sorriso.

    1. Effettivamente si erano pó isolati gli US durante il decorso biennio ... cominciano a recuperare verso la giusta direzione. Grazie per aver condiviso il tuo punto di vista.

  8. We can only hope the US/Biden and his team can convince the world leader that we are NOT the country of trump and takes us back. BTW I love the donkeys. They are so cute. Glad you got to feed them. Have a wonderful day.

    1. Non preoccuparti, Paola. Una minima reazione dell'organismo è comunque fisiologica. Spero che andrà tutto bene.
      Grazie per i saluti!
