When you hear Republican candidates, a constant theme is that the U.S. is no longer respected by the rest of the world. Eduardo Porter in the Business Section of today’s New York Times echoes this complaint, although I don’t think Republicans would be pleased with his column.
Because of the political activities of the Congress coupled with the Supreme Court’s 5-4 vote overturning the President’s regulations on emissions, the rest of the world no longer feels it can trust the American commitment to reduce greenhouse gases. And why should it?
This issue will not come up in the Republican debates.
