The case is even stronger for the US, as it is the second largest polluter in terms of absolute emissions after China, and a major economic power. The promised return of the US to multilateralism is good news for the global climate agenda – no international agreement could be truly credible if the US is not part of it, considering its economic and political hegemony and its share of global emissions”.
