Kukhona indlovu engxoxweni yesimo sezulu ukuthi ukufunwa kwe-US akukwazi ukuxoxwa noma kuvunyelwe. Lesi sivumelwano sokungazinaki indlovu manje yisisekelo esamukelekayo kuzo zonke izingxoxo zomhlaba jikelele mayelana nokuguquka kwesimo sezulu.
Kuyaqondakala kahle ngazo zonke izilinganiso ezingenzeka ukuthi i-Pentagon, umshini wezempi wase-US, ungumthengi omkhulu wemikhiqizo ye-petroleum emhlabeni jikelele kanye nomshini wezwe oshisa kakhulu wokukhishwa kwegesi lokushisa kanye nezinye izinto ezinobuthi ezinobuthi. Kodwa i-Pentagon inokukhishwa kwengubo kuzo zonke izivumelwano zesimo sezulu zomhlaba wonke.
Kusukela kusukela ku-Kyoto Accords noma izingxoxo ze-Kyoto Protocol ku-1998, ngomzamo wokuthobela ukulandelwa kwe-US, yonke imisebenzi yasezempi yase-US emhlabeni wonke nase-US iye yahluleka ukulinganisa futhi izivumelwano zokunciphisa. I-Congress Yase-US yadlulisela ilungiselelo elicacile eliqinisekisa ukukhululeka kwezempi zase-US. (Service Interpress, May 20, 1998)
Ukukhishwa kwezempi ephelele yase-US ekubalweni kokushisa kwegesi okushisa kubandakanya okungaphezu kwezinguquko ze-1,000 zase-US ezingaphezu kwamazwe we-130 emhlabeni jikelele, izikhungo zayo ze-6,000 e-US, izindiza zezindiza kanye nezindiza zezindiza. Futhi ngaphandle kokuhlolwa kwezikhali zayo kanye nemisebenzi eminingi efana ne-giant yase-US eyayi-NATO yokubambisana kwezempi kanye ne-Africom, umbuso wezempi wase-US manje owugqoka i-Afrika. Leli lungiselelo liphinde linikeze imisebenzi yase-US / UN-evunyelwe "yokulondeka" kanye "nokusizwa kosizo."
Ngemuva kokuthola lesi sivumelwano esikhulu, uhulumeni wase-US usenqabe ukusayina i-Kyoto Accord, ngaleyo ndlela echitha iminyaka eminingi yomzamo wokubamba isivumelwano.
Izinhlinzeko ze-Kyoto Protocol azange zibe yisisekelo sayo yonke imihlangano yezizwe zomhlaba ezihlongozwayo esikhathini esizayo, kuhlanganise neCopenhagen 2009, Cancun 2010, Durban 2011, Doha 2012 kanye neNgqungquthela yeZizwe Ezihlangene ezayo i-21st Conference of the Parties on Meeting on Climate Change eParis I-2015.
Kuzo zonke izingqungquthela zamazwe omhlaba ezedlule kwakunjalo ngokuphindaphindiwe uhulumeni wase-US owachitha imihlangano futhi wenqaba ukuboshwa nganoma yisiphi isivumelwano. Ukuphatha kuka-Obama ngo-Aug. 27 kuphinde kwaqinisekisa ukuthi emhlanganweni we-UN eNew York ngoSeptemba ukulungiselela umhlangano we-2015 Paris, kuphela isivumelwano esingavinjelwe esingasetshenziswa.
Indima yezishoshovu ezindala
Ngaphandle kokuba izishoshovu zesimo sezulu ezingeni lezinselelo zinselele lokhu kukhululwa kwezempi zase-US futhi ziqale ukugxila ekukhanyeni kwelaser emithonjeni eyingozi kunazo zonke yokufudumala kwembulunga kanye nokuguquka kwesimo sezulu, ukunyakaza kuzolahleka ngokujwayelekile okungaqondakali, izifiso ezingenasidingo kanye nezivumelwano ezingenasisekelo.
Ithemba elilodwa lokuthi ukuthululwa okukhulu ngoSeptemba eNew York City kuzoba nomthelela uma amazwi azimele angase aqale ukuphikisa inselele umculi omkhulu wezwe jikelele.
Ukuveza izindleko ezimbi eziphathelene nokuhlaselwa kwezempi zase-US kumele kube yingxenye yenselele. Indima yezempi yaseWashington yenza njalo kuqiniswe kuwo wonke amazinga ophazamisayo wombuso.
