I am severely disappointed in President Obama’s lack of leadership here. He just gave his first speech to the plenary. The U.S. is still only committing to a lousy 4% emission reductions from 1990 levels by 2020 (the science calls for 25-40% below 1990 levels by 2020). I was hoping President Obama would bring news today that he is pushing the U.S. commitment to higher levels. Why isn’t he showing leadership on this issue?
If I were President Obama, I would be extremely ashamed to bring such a low level of ambition to these negotiations.
