The US has already slashed its emissions by a fifth

The US has already slashed its emissions by a fifth in the last year, from 2.2 million tons in 2010 to 2 million tons by 2020, according to the report. The US has also cut emissions from coal-fired power plants more than 20 times in the last 10 years to 3 million tons, while maintaining its current policy of not reducing emissions by more than half.

There were similar reductions in emissions from power industry firms by the end of 2009. The average for the last three years was 2 million tons, the agency estimated.

"In addition, the US is making reductions in its industrial pollution as a result of a policy shift that will make economic growth less likely and the cost of energy more likely," said Rhodium Group's Mark Cushman.

The US is also rolling back its environmental regulations, which are aimed at reducing emissions, Cushman said. So in other words, the US might be in a situation where the US wants to reduce its emissions.

The president may even be willing to do some serious math on emissions and energy in an effort to mitigate the risk of his administration, said Richard Painter, a professor at the University of Virginia and director of the Center on Energy and Environment. "This is the most powerful political decision the president has ever made," he told me.The United States, which has been accused of using "extraordinary measures" to block the country from signing up to a global accord on climate change, has been pressing ahead with the US administration's push for a global agreement to curb carbon dioxide emissions.
