The 195 participating countries have agreed to limit the rise in average global temperatures to ‘well below’ 2ยฐC, or 1.5ยฐC if possible.

The agreement doesnโ€™t state how much each country should cut their emissions by, although from 2018 onwards countries have to submit individual targets every five years.

“I am satisfied by the historic Climate Change Agreement #COP21. The leadership of Miguel Arias Caรฑete was vital to achieve this. Great work,” Rajoy tweeted.

  1. You’ve got to laugh.

    “The 195 participating countries have agreed to limit the rise in average global temperatures to โ€˜well belowโ€™ 2ยฐC, or 1.5ยฐC if possible.”

    As if anyone can control the planets temperatures to within such levels. They speak as if they are gods. All total nonsense. Truth is that nobody knows what is happening to the planet, or even indeed how the planet even works. Humans have only been on Earth for a few seconds in relative terms to its overall age. Enjoy it while you can.
