[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, I'm building on my Administration's historic climate record by setting an ambitious new goal to cut greenhouse gas emissions by more than 60% by 2035.

We're the United States. Together, I know we can do this.

#COP27 Thursday 6.20pm update

Where do negotiations stand?

There's talk of closing plenaries at 8pm, which no-one seems to believe…

…there's still no proper draft cover text…

…and only 2 of 31 agenda items we've been tracking are agreed (AFAIK)

@caseykatims @USClimate Would love to chat if I can find you in this chaos. We just finished a guide on regional decarbonization work that you might be interested in for your Governors.

"The science is clear, any hope of limiting temperature rise to 1.5 degrees means achieving global net zero emissions by 2050. But that 1.5 degree goal is on life support and the machines are rattling" - @antonioguterres, Secretary General of @UN at #SCIS. #COP27

After all the #COP26 debate about whether "requests" is stronger UN-speak than "urges" (it is), here's a fuller version of the @UNFCCC style guide on how to choose verbs in legal text

eg "encourage" is at the weaker end of the spectrum, which runs from "instructs" to "calls"
