Topic Reading-Vol.1881-6/5/2017

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Trade dispute holds up EU-China climate statement
In the late last century, “It’s the economy s-----!” phrase worked the most in elections.
It was so close to reach a historical joint commitment to combat global warming between these two parties, the EU and China. This unlikely alliance could have been formed should they had managed to compromise the disagreements in trade and steel production issues. Since China has been the largest emitter of greenhouse gasses ever since it surpassed the US in 2007, their commitment to the Paris climate agreement is essential for the global environment, especially when the US president announced to withdraw from the accord.
It seems that while the US has lost the leadership role in global environmental initiatives, China has missed a chance to take the position.
Enjoy reading and thinking when the world hears “It’s the environment s-----!” phrase during elections.
