At the UN Climate Summit this year $200 billion was pledged by groups of financial institutions making it seem that the world is shifting away from the burning of fossil fuels. The truth is that exploiting fossil fuels are still apart of the world’s long term plans. Instead of America planning to change itself it has decided to focus on helping other countries steer away from fossil fuels. It seems as if America is more focused on boosting their economy rather than fighting against climate change. Mean while Shell and ExxonMobil told investors that even if the government decides to invest in climate change that their businesses will still be turning profits. It seems apparent that everyone has recognized that climate change is real but no one is going to stop it.
