In today’s discussion, we explored Exxon Mobil's position on the U.S. staying in the Paris Agreement, with their CEO highlighting the importance of stable policies to support climate mitigation efforts. While some raised concerns about the challenges of fully complying with the agreement’s ambitious goals, we also acknowledged the broader role of global initiatives like the UN's sustainable development agenda. Additionally, we discussed the importance of balancing economic competitiveness with environmental commitments and noted that some moderate Republican perspectives could provide a steady approach to climate policy without significant upheavals.
