People more conscious of global warming difficulties than their governments

M

any people, it seems, are more conscious of the impending difficulties arise from global warming than their respective governments.

Climate disruption weighs so heavily on the minds of those same people that they should be following the example set by the Dutch group, Urgenda.

It has acted successfully against the Dutch Government to have it reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Energy Post reports about a unique decision in which the district court of The Hague ordered the Dutch government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% in 2020 compared to 1990.

It reported: “Current ambitions of the Dutch government amount to a reduction of around 17%. The case was brought by Dutch NGO Urgenda and nine hundred co-plaintiffs.

“This is the first time that a judge has ordered a State to take measures against climate change, says Urgenda. “This decision will provide support to all other climates case around the world.” In Norway and Belgium similar cases have been brought.”
