Are we COPing out on Climate?
Some people may be under the impression that with the Paris Accord of 2015, and subsequent agreements made at a series of “Conference of the Parties” (COP) meetings, the problem of climate change is well on its way to being solved. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. I will summarize some recent scientific findings that everyone needs to know about and discuss their implications for climate policy.
