Obama Plans ‘Executive Order’ for U.N. Climate Rules, GOP Warns Other Countries

Obama Plans ‘Executive Order’ for U.N. Climate Rules, GOP Warns Other Countries:

"The Obama administration released a plan for U.N. climate change on Tuesday, in which it seeks to solidify its pledge to a global climate agreement to be negotiated late this year in Paris.  The plan calls for cutting greenhouse gas emissions by close to 28 percent from 2005 levels within a decade, using a host of existing laws and executive actions targeting power plants, vehicles, oil and gas production and buildings.

Republicans insist the administration cannot proceed with the unilateral international action without Congressional approval."
