FAQs about COP24 Katowice 2018

12. Does the United States continue in the COPs and continues to support the Paris Agreement?

In SGK-PLANET we do not share this last statement if we consider that the United States rejected the Fifth Report of the IPCC, the basic document for the negotiations at COP24.
