  2. February 16, 2005 - The Kyoto Protocol went into effect after countries responsible for 55% of the world’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions had ratified the treaty, following Russia’s agreement to its terms. The agreement’s purpose was to reduce such gases to 12% below their levels in 1990 by 2012 and, thus, slow global warming.

    180 countries had agreed (except for the United States and Australia, two of the world’s top emitters of GHG per capita) to rules for implementing the Kyoto Protocol on July 29, 2001, in Bonn, Germany. President George W. Bush withdrew the U.S. from the process shortly after he took office that same year. His reasoning was that, since India and China had not signed on, they would gain a competitive advantage. The U.S. is now responsible for 15.6% of the earth’s GHG (with 5% of its population).

  3. @vmachiel @siracusa Not ”buy[ing] the CO2 thesis” is just #climatedenialism.

    Going back and looking at older posts, it’s apparent that @cgWerks is also a supporter of current US Republican policies and a proponent of Intelligent Design.

    So, goodbye.

  4. #COP30 talks in #Bélem, #Brazil, failed on all counts.

    The #COP mechanism for global #climate governance is broken.

    In the words of the #Colombia delegation: "A consensus imposed under #climatedenialism is a failed agreement”

  5. The thing I hate about regular 30℃+ summer temperatures in the UK happening every year is constantly having to hear pub bores going on about how it was "hot once before in 1976 so global warming is a hoax".

  6. In addition, #Trump ofcls have been recruiting #scientists to help them repeal the 2009 “#endangerment finding,” which determined that #GreenhouseGases pose a threat to #PublicHealth & welfare, & which now underpins much of the govt’s #legal authority to slow #GlobalWarming….

  7. Their hiring comes after the #Trump admin dismissed hundreds of #scientists & #experts who had been compiling the #FederalGovernment’s flagship report on how climate change is affecting the country. The admin has also systematically removed mentions of #ClimateChange from govt websites while slashing federal #funding for research on #GlobalWarming.

  8. They are Steven E. Koonin, a #physicist & author of a best-selling book that calls #ClimateScience “unsettled”; John Christy, an #atmospheric scientist who doubts the extent to which #human activity has caused #GlobalWarming; & Roy Spencer, a #meteorologist who believes that #clouds have had a greater influence on warming than #humans have [okay that last one is just bonkers].

  9. #GiftArticle

    The #Energy Dept has hired at least 3 scientists who are well-known for their rejection of the overwhelming scientific consensus on #ClimateChange, acc/to records reviewed by NYT.

    The #scientists are listed in the #DOE’s internal email system as current employees of the agency, the records show.

  10. This opinion piece from The Tyee could not be more on point:

    #Canada has always had its issues dealing with the USA's economic and cultural influence. But with many well-funded, mask-off fascist US political groups coming into power in 2025, they will have their eyes set on Canada, just like they did with the #kkkonvoy in 2022.

    Stopping the privatization of #healthcare, pilfering of pensions, and #climateDenialism will be crucial for #cdnPoli in 2025

  11. USA Federal Election Exit polls did not even *ask* about climate change or environment!! 🙄

    US voters name democracy and economy as top issues

  12. UK environmental journalist Leo Hickman shared a transcript of the #ClimateChange section of the #Trump #Musk 3 hour interview. It’s worth a read.

    Trump simply cannot hide his #ClimateDenialism, while Musk falls into my definition of evil. He’s deliberately fuzzy and mansplains a lot, but he basically knows the risks and the timescales. And he downplays it all for votes.

  13. I saw these photos on mastodon a few days ago about of the huge melt over 15 years of the Rhone Glacier…good to see it’s gained media attention, even if it is the result of climate deniers on X.

    The speed of the glacier’s disappearance really should leave everyone in no doubt that #ClimateChange is real and human made.

  14. My boss mentioned that she had heard a positive reference to Ed Miliband and DESNZ this morning…and then moved on.

    So I went online to see what she was talking about. Unfortunately our default browser at work is Bing.

    And suddenly I realised how people become sucked into this rightwing vortex of #ClimateDenialism

    Alt Text: lmage of negative headlines on Bing for Ed Miliband. Papers listed are only Express and Torygraph

  15. @DoomsdaysCW

    this decision was made by persons. they have names and addresses (if still living). i want them held accountable for fraud and the billions of lives they've condemned to death through environmental collapse. do we have any prosecutors brave enough?

  16. "As early as the 1970s, #Exxon’s scientists predicted that the firm’s #fossilfuel products could lead to #globalwarming with “dramatic #environmental effects before the year #2050.” Yet, as has been well documented, Exxon officials responded by investing company funds in casting doubt on climate change research, even financing think tanks focused on #ClimateDenialism. Had they instead broadcast their scientists’ findings and worked to speed the transition to alternative fuels, the world would be in a far less precarious position today."
