LCA was reworked in a shortest time and put with a realistic figures for the countries discussion. It took almost 2 years of regular conferences,meetings and debates to make countries agree on conditions. Process of moving from "paying out sins" LCA to the "saving the planet" LCA was not as long as for agreeing on the first one, but was not less painful as well. However, after India, Brazil and US jumped on the boat it was finished.<br>
USA agreed finally in the UN negotiations in 2018 to sign the LCA and reduce GHGs. This move required mainly the U.S. industry to improve efficiency. The country did this for two reasons: 1. To avoid the import duties from China and EU and 2. To be an example to developing countries to also set emission targets. USA observed the developing countries growing economically. The country believed to put with emission targets a brake on this growth, which was seen as a threat to USA. So they communicated it on the UNFCCC conference.<br><br>

Almost in parallel also developing countries, like Brazil, Russia and India put emission reduction targets. This was driven by that they received during the years enough funds to finance such projects like reforestation in Brazil or renewable energy power generation in India. Russia additionally was ultimately affected by several natural catastrophes that were again devastating for their harvest and thus it drove them to reduce GHGs. <br><br>

The IPCC report from 2018 revealed that the effect of these 10 years of negotiations, no actions and be reached. However, the individual initiatives on country level improved the situation. <br>
After the main ratification of LCA2 a real hope appeared that in a nearest decades climate will finally stabilize and there will be no irreversible consequences for the planet.
As a consequence of this news the outlook was that countries would find an agreement to further fight global warming and even further decrease GHG emissions.
