Because of lax rules, national inventories reported to the United Nations grossly underestimate many countries’ greenhouse gas emissions. The result, analysts say, is that the world can not verify compliance with agreed emissions targets, jeopardizing global climate agreements.

    I love the spam shit, let’s me know I’m on the good content.

    Anyways

    Even back in the Kyoto days every nations military has been considered exempt. Conservative estimates I’ve read are that a nations military can be estimated at a one to one with the civilian sector on pollution, or in America’s case, the roughly ~1million soldiers pollute as much as the 350million civilians.

    Kyoto’s projections were based solely off civilian output, effectively always reporting on and only tracking half the global pollution.

    It was sandbagged from the start. Boomers never had any intention of actually working on the issue, it’s all just more of the media shell game, like plastic recycling.

    Evil. Plain and simple. Such short sightedness, greed and condescention. If sacrificing liability of the environment for future generations, all for fleeting material gain in the present, doesn’t meet the threshold for evil then evil just doesn’t exist.

      I removed it over a day ago at this point but some people can still see it because:

      • mbin and kbin don’t yet support federated removals
      • Some mobile apps (notably sync) show spam to people whether or not it’s been removed
