Legally Non-Binding Climate Deal (That Cost Us Billions) Struck in Copenhagen

Obama Announces Non-Binding Climate Agreement, Progress Will ‘Take Some Time’

President Obama has reached a "meaningful agreement" with China, India and South Africa to curb greenhouse gas emissions following a marathon day of talks in Copenhagen, an administration official said late Friday.

Obama had delayed his scheduled departure from Copenhagen and was in the final stages of overseeing the creation of a non-binding agreement to cut global greenhouse gases, the official said.  The deal will prevent global temperature increases of no more than two degrees centigrade by 2020, the official said.
The official acknowledged the agreement is "not sufficient" to combat climate change, but called it an "important first step."
"No country is entirely satisfied with each element but this is a meaningful and historic step forward and a foundation from which to make further progress," the official said. Read more here.
