Biden: This will be 'decisive decade' for tackling climate change

 

        This week I’ve read an article about climate changes. More precisely the text was about the US president statement, which had told a major summit about the decisive decade for facing climate change.             Joe Biden is a president known of his radical statement about climate change top United States has declared to set a goal for itself to cut carbon emissions by about 50% till the 2029 ends. Some people could find it very surprising and even incredible because they doubled the target form the previous summit of 40 global leaders. Opposite to the US, other biggest CO2 emitters like China and India didn’t make any new obligations. The question is will all these commitments really make a difference.                                             As I noticed climate has been important focus od Biden’s presidency since beginning. Another serious question which applies to this topic is about priority of this topic above others. I mean we are in the situation where biggest emitters don’t seem to be interested in this. I just wonder if this would be done without them.

    I've just read that the Polish government subsidizes our coal mining industry with billions of zloties even though its losses are growing every year. What's the point?
