From Watts Up With That?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Stephen Eule<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Former<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

President Trump\u2019s decision to withdraw the U.S. from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was long overdue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Signed by President George Bush and ratified by a unanimous Senate in October 1992, the treaty\u2019s purpose is to avoid \u201cdangerous human interference with the climate system\u201d by restricting greenhouse gas emissions, most of which derive from energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the very beginning, the UNFCCC has been an unmanageable mess. While the treaty\u2019s offspring\u2014the Kyoto Protocol, Copenhagen Accord, and Paris Agreement\u2014have been the focus of much conservative ire, these agreements merely amplify the UNFCCC\u2019s many flaws. It pits developing countries against developed countries, creates unrealistic expectations, promotes bureaucratic \u201csolutions,\u201d and is a money sink. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UNFCCC provides clear and fixed divisions of labor between developed and developing countries based on the principles of \u201ccommon but differentiated responsibilities\u201d and \u201chistorical responsibility.\u201d  In practice, that means developing countries have few obligations, and their actions are largely contingent on financial support from developed countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Convention, however, reflects the world as it was three decades ago, not as it is today. Its signatories failed to consider that developing countries wouldn\u2019t stay poor forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider that since 1992, China\u2019s economy has grown more than 1,000% and its emissions more than 250%. It\u2019s now the world\u2019s second largest economy and largest greenhouse gas emitter. Yet in the eyes of the UNFCCC, it\u2019s still considered \u201cdeveloping.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

China isn\u2019t alone. Singapore, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar also are developing countries in the UNFCCC. There is no avenue to change their status under the treaty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poor countries are along for the ride. They have little interest in addressing climate change, justifiably prioritizing economic advancement and poverty eradication over climate. They are more than happy to power progress with hydrocarbon fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indeed, the vaunted energy \u201ctransition\u201d\u2013\u2013 the treaty\u2019s promised outcome\u2013\u2013 has turned out to be a mirage. Data from the International Energy Agency reveal that since 1992, global energy demand has jumped a whopping 76%. Over the same period, the amount of carbon emitted per unit of energy consumed has declined just 3%<\/a>, leading to a 71% jump in CO2 emissions from energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, about three quarters of a billion people worldwide lack access to sufficient electricity, the single best indicator of a nation\u2019s human welfare. Coal, especially in Asia and parts of Africa, will remain the fuel of choice for generating electric power for many years. Wealthy economies are clean economies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deception and greenwashing also pervade the UNFCCC. Take the Paris Agreement. It calls for limiting the increase in the global average temperature to \u201cwell below 2\u00b0C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5\u00b0C.\u201d Although the treaty does not define what these temperature targets mean for global emissions, the UN now says they mean<\/a>, \u201cemissions need to be reduced by 45% by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050,\u201d something to which the Parties did not agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the Parties explicitly rejected draft proposals for specific emissions targets and timetables, including net zero emissions by 2050, because they knew full well such a goal was out of reach. The treaty\u2019s temperature language is nothing more than a green Rorschach test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inconsistent with the claims of a climate crisis, the UNFCCC works at a snail\u2019s pace\u2014not that the results are worth the wait. For example, it took nine years for the Parties to negotiate language implementing the Paris Agreement\u2019s provisions on international carbon trading. Those same Parties also urge a 40 to 45% cut in global emissions in five years. Who is kidding whom?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On top of all this, at each annual \u201cCOP\u201d meeting the U.S. must resist extravagant financial demands, efforts to weaken intellectual property protections, demands for climate reparations, calls to end the consumption of meat, and other silly ideas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But perhaps the most potent justification for bidding adieu to the UNFCCC was provided by<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christiana Figueres, the UNFCCC Executive Secretariat during the Paris talks, who in a candid moment said, \u201cThis the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally . . . to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution.\u201d This is not what President Bush signed onto or the Senate ratified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The U.S. has invested far too much political and financial capital into a process ill-suited to address the ostensible climate problem, a process that often works against American interests and values. Indeed, at a time when the U.S. is in an artificial intelligence race with China\u2014competition shaped by access to affordable and reliable energy\u2014the UNFCCC is an expensive distraction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are well out of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
