Good. The Paris climate accord was a boon for 3rd world autocrats through climate grants with no way of enforcement. I understand why people are upset, something needs to be done for climate change, but it was really a toothless, kumbaya agreement.

No country that is still in the agreement is meeting their stated goals: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/un-global-warming-climate-chan...

Everything is a kumbaya agreement but to get everyone in the world to agree on something is ridiculously challenging. I don’t think people give enough credit to those folks who at least get the snowball going down the hill.
