The US election results have been published – since the US are one of the most important emitters of greenhouse gases worldwide, and a key political player, this outcome evidently affects global climate stabilization.
On this issue, Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research:
"President-elect Donald Trump's stance on global warming is well known. Ironically, he contributed to the popularity of our recent 'Turn down the heat'-report series for the World Bank by attacking it on Twitter. Yet apart from this, science cannot expect any positive climate action from him. The world has now to move forward without the US on the road towards climate-risk mitigation and clean-technology innovation."
