The U.S. credibility chasm on climate change Illustration: Aïda Amer/Axios The biggest hurdle for President Biden in winning new emissions reduction commitments at this week s White House summit is America s on-again, off-again history of climate change efforts. Why it matters: The global community is off course to meet the temperature targets contained in the Paris Climate Agreement. The White House wants the summit Thursday and Friday to begin to change that. The Paris agreement called for warming to be limited to well below 2 degrees Celsius, or 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit, relative to preindustrial levels. However, the world is currently on course for 3 degrees Celsius, or 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit, of warming, which raises the odds of potentially disastrous consequences.
