The EU got its wish when President Biden issued an order to reenter the Paris Agreement — but now that America is back, Europe is worried about being outcompeted and outspent

to reenter the Paris Agreement — but now that America is back, Europe is worried about being outcompeted and outspent.

It's not that the new White House team isn't aware of the past four years — Former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, now Biden’s climate envoy,“humility” mixed with “ambition” at a business leaders conference on Thursday. He said he felt"pain and some embarrassment" over the U.S.' behavior under Trump, and praised Europe for its perseverance.

“Everyone is infatuated with John Kerry now … but actually the Europeans should win the Nobel prize,” they added. This raises EU worries that a Biden-led U.S., pouring vast resources into green energy and tech, will overshadow the bloc's own efforts. On the Continent, renewable and other clean tech businesses are urging the EU to speed up its regulatory and investment efforts to boost their capacities.

I just hope that this treaty will deliver results and not just for show. Just like WHO unable to prevent pandemic, the investigations concluded that China could have done better to prevent spread as well as WHO and they deemed that WHO needed reforms.

This Israeli journalist points out the propaganda that comes from Israel and US Israeli lobby groups if one speaks out against Palestinian apartheid then they are labeled anti-Semitic. This journalist explains in detail the negative impact this has.

what the f... do the Paris agreement does 4 the unemployed & poor in the US anyway?, only a feel good deal 4 celebrities & European leaders, 2 get together, drink champagne 2 congratulate themselves. BTW The 3rd world certainly has bigger problems 2 deal with, other than climate

Better get humpin.

Awww stupid decisions that have nice sounding intentions have unwanted consequences and fuck everyone over? Who could’ve ever thought? That’s literally TheDemocrats for you.

So, climate has become a pissing contest and a possible dispute over a Nobel prize? I would say if that’s what it takes, fine. But actually, it’s pathetic...

Fun and games as they all compete to spend the peoples/taxpayers money...economics

Come on! We all need to work together for shared goals. It's not a competition. We're all in it together.

Legit concerns, but resolvable ones.

The EU is missing the point. This President will work WITH you.

Oh course we will pick up the bill! For all the countries! Yipee the fools are back!!! JoeBiden

If the US outcompete the EU it’s good for all, but if this is a worry for the EU, shouldn’t the EU bring out their A game

Yup. Wasting more money.

If we outcompete Europe in being green and forward-thinking, great!

Obliterating the ozone layer of the Earth requires ALL of us to lessen our dependencies on hydrocarbons which release nitrates, nitrates, sulfates, sulfites, and more into our atmosphere. The USA GDP dwarfs the EU GDP. Our public policies by 2050 will create winners and losers.

Life is a brief dream, but don't be stupid, don't wake up before dawn:

Sigh...😒

And that is how you show strength by showing up and not leaving.

The US only joined to obstruct any real progress. That's what EU fears.

Any kind of deal with Islamic Regime dictatorship, It means you are ally with murderer Islamic regime. The free American people do not accept a GOV who is partner in crime. Iranian people want free vote under the international supervising for regime changes. 42YearsOfExecutions

This is a good thing
