President Biden's passage of the IRA gives him leverage to fight global warming ahead of COP27, the U.N. climate conference in Egypt -- but suspended talks with China are a major challenge.

have weighed on the prospects for the gathering in the Egyptian resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh. On Friday, Europe’s top climate negotiator said that his fears were diminishing that a United Nations climate conference in Egypt in November would be a “train crash,”The plan for talks between the United States and China, unveiled with fanfare during the Glasgow climate summit last year, aimed to tackle a broad range of planet-warming emissions.

White House officials are also weighing whether Biden can attend the U.N. climate conference, known as COP27, to signal his commitment to global efforts to reduce emissions. The two weeks of talks begin on Nov. 6, two days before the U.S. midterm elections, and Biden will attend a Group of 20 summit in Indonesia on Nov. 15 and 16.I know that it’s very high on the agenda in the White House in terms of their hopes,” Kerry said. “I know he wants to go, and I think it would be helpful if he does go.

“We had a group of people who were really expert and ready to roll,” Kerry said. He said he had already met with Chinese counterparts this year in Davos, Berlin and Stockholm, and that they had planned to meet for “several days” ahead of the U.N. conference to try to come up with concrete pledges.“It’s literally hanging there in limbo. They did suspend it, they didn’t terminate it, but there’s no sign that that suspension will lift,” he said.

Lawrence If the Biden Administration is serious about fighting global warming, it will work to impose carbon tariffs on Chinese imports.

Which win?

Lurch, when are you going to China to convince them to cooperate with yours and Joey's schemes? You'll be lucky to escape with your pigtail in tact.

And India

There won’t be a Biden climate “win” until China and India are both onboard 100%. Until then you’re yapping political PR.

Incorrect, globally depends on the western imperial U.S that its population adds more to climate disaster than China that has four times the U.S population, isn't it?

Oops! the whole climate changing theory has just been debunked.

So the wins are dependent on china’s change? How is it a win then?

as the globe is on the brink of a nuclear war, what is the point of a climate win?

China is so dependable! Not!!

People are suffering and you are crowing about a negligible effect on the climate

How can you call it a 'win'? What evidence is there any of it has or will have a positive impact?

The MSM can’t just let a positive remain they always have to do the but!

Biden's win is a loss for citizens - the climate has its' own agenda

Biden showed US's weak spot. To defeat US, it is enough to have and threaten nuclear weapons. Dictators/terrorists of planet have already taken note of this. If you have nuclear bomb, then WH will be your slave. Iran, N. Korea, China will be able to take advantage of it soon.

Hey how’s your 401k looking?

Private jets. Let's talk about private jets and how they pollute more than most towns entire populations including cars.

But, China does not care about USA!

I almost forgot about the Inflation Reduction Act. Mostly because it’s done nothing to reduce inflation and that was never its goal.

Despite your massive propaganda, the Republicans will win both of your houses ..

Did they take away John Kerry's private jet? Poor fella

They just thru money at the sun, hoping it would stop…. Biden administration has done nothing but take victory laps over projected results, not ACTUAL results. No data yet confirms US has actually accomplished anything.

Until China and India play along (they won’t), these policies will only hurt the US. There is not a simple switch on to 100% green. But too many in power want it to be true.

What a hoax he got his donors rich and blew put the economy. People who believe in climate change are strait suckers. You’re all letting us get played their lying through their teeth

Biden has been the most anti-military president since Jimmy CarterWhen Biden and the Democrats proposed hiring 87,000 new IRS agents (but no new Border Patrol agents) it was a pretty good indication that they were more interested in policing Americans than securing the border.

President Joe Biden and the Democrats' white supremacy disinformationPresident Joe Biden and Democrats have long advanced the idea that white supremacy is a severe and imminent security problem in this country. There is a klansman in every shadow — it's a common scare tactic by Democrats, who deliberately amplify any case of racial strife, assuming the aggressor is… cwtremo Would be a good subject for a House investigation when Republicans take control. A real investigation ... professional, objective & informative .... Not politicians talking over each other, looking for sound bites & photo ops.

Once inflation is factored in, wages are down 4% compared with a year ago. If you consider the high levels of snow present, hades really did not freeze over. Pick an extreme relative factor and twist any good fact to look bad. Who are these people? Biden is MOSTLY FALSE all of the time Do you have a problem reading his statement or your own tweet? He said incomes are up, which is 100 percent true!!! He did not say net financial situation is up? You could have said both in your tweet! agenda
