An analysis of the outcomes of the Paris climate talks, as well as the opportunities and challenges ahead for addressing emissions.

In the run-up to international climate talks being held in Paris, lawmakers from various countries put their chips on the table. Rather than a top down approach, each country offered its unique approach for tackling greenhouse gas emissions. In the United States, for instance, the Clean Power Plan is the cornerstone for cutting emissions from the power sector. And the Chinese government recently announced plans for a cap-and-trade program that will begin in 2017.
After the Paris talks conclude, experts from Bloomberg Intelligence and the Carnegie Endowment came together to discuss:

The EU’s new migration policy is not suited to today’s realities. With climate change increasingly becoming a driver of displacement, Europe needs to rethink its deterrence-focused approach.

The battle over free speech has taken center stage since U.S. Vice President JD Vance accused Europe of censorship. From travel bans to social media regulation, especially around the Israel-Palestine conflict, are liberal democratic governments weaponizing free speech?

Amid uncertainty caused by the Iran war, the global drive for nonproliferation has stalled. With Europe diplomatically marginalized and countries reassessing their nuclear options, efforts to curb the spread of nuclear weapons risk becoming irrelevant.
