Europe continues its fight against climate change at the G20 summit
This Friday began the G20 summit in Osaka, Japan, having as its main theme the global concern that exists about the climate change. The President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, has commented that "he needs to make a firm statement "about this issue that affects the community throughout Europe.
The members present at the G20 summit have been divided in the face of global warming, for which it is expected to reach an agreement on it in order to deal with this global problem.
In 2015 an agreement between the nations was approved through the paris climate summit. In it, the countries promised not to generate a greater increase in 2 degrees centigrade in relation to the pre-industrial era.
Despite all this, the United Nations published a report in 2016 where he estimated that the increase in the temperatures would reach more than 3 degrees centigrade by the end of the century.
The United States has been the only country that makes up this summit, which decided to retire in 2016 from the Paris agreement on climate change. In this way, this year all other nations seem to put pressure on this nation to adapt to these terms.
