The
News
For the first time, China set a target for capping
carbon emissions last week in an agreement with the U.S President Barrack Obama,
who earlier pledged deeper cuts in green-house-gas emissions.
The presidents of the two world’s biggest economy,
U.S President Barrack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping after series of
negotiations outlined the accord, which they said would help push other Nations
to negotiate a global pact next year in Paris.
Big
Impact
The Director of International Programs for the
National Resources Defense Council (a Washington-based environmental group)
Jake Schmiidt, said no other countries can have as big an impact on the climate
debate as the U.S and China.
Affirmation
This new commitment from the two world’s giant
economy will without doubt increase the opportunity to access the carbon
trading potentials which is a plus for all environment activists.
If these two leading economies can take such deep
commitment to cutting down emissins, the rest of the world is signaled to
equally promote this advancement.
Action
Point
If the approach from our national level does not
indicate “help-from-the-top” commitment, we can demonstrate our many
individual-levels “help-to-the-top” commitments and make more money solving
this global problem.
Do not hesitate to tell more people about the way
forward!
Go-Green, Grow-Great!
