What is in the Paris climate agreement?

  In the paris climate agreement the principal objective is to reduce the contamination to stop the climate change and reduce the temperatures because they've reached above 2C of warming. They want to limit the  amount of greenhouse gases emitted by human activity to the same levels that trees, soil and oceans can absorb naturally, beginning at some point between 2050 and 2100. And to review the number of emissions that each country does. KEY ELEMENTS To keep global temperatures "well below" 2.0C (3.6F) above pre-industrial times and "endeavour to limit" them even more, to 1.5C To limit the amount of greenhouse gases emitted by human activity to the same levels that trees, soil and oceans can absorb naturally, beginning at some point between 2050 and 2100 To review each country's contribution to cutting emissions every five years so they scale up to the challenge For rich countries to help poorer nations by providing "climate finance"
