Iridium's picture

The meeting holding on November 18th is going to put Paris Climate Change Agreement, which requires each coutry to "[hold] the increase in global average temperature to well below 2 degrees [Celsius] above pre-industrial levels," into action. Some finance and technology related problem will be discussed in order to determine the allocation of each country's effort. As National Security Council, John Morton, stated in the news, although the outcome of the election could affect "how quickly the U.S. moves [to limit emissions] ... the international community is moving forward."
