Has green policy really been a failure though? That depends upon what the true intent was.
Those 95 US senators were totally right; twenty years of the Kyoto Protocol have brought the world twenty years of rising greenhouse gas emissions and twenty years of job migration to low wage, low regulation havens in the Third World.
If the intent was the redistribution of wealth and an economic crisis for the powerful western nations it might be seen as a success. That is the well-documented goal of socialists, communists and Progressives who were all around long before the "green movement." It dovetails nicely with a Cloward & Piven strategy.
When the idiotic Kyoto Protocol was put before the US Senate, 95 senators voted against this confused and destructive initiative on the grounds that, as designed, the measure would simply ship American jobs to China and other countries without reducing greenhouse gasses... The EU, where disingenuous politicians are forced to demagogue green issues because addlepated proportional representation rules empower the lunatic eco-fringe in key countries, ratified Kyoto... Global greenhouse emissions did not in fact appear to be declining very much. Many of the EU cuts were accounting tricks; counting the closure of inefficient, money-losing industrial dinosaurs in East Germany that were doomed to close anyway... And it looks as if the 95 American senators were 100 percent right: the much heralded Protocol was a singularly stupid piece of counterproductive social engineering that encouraged the migration of good jobs to China and other low wage countries -- without helping the environment at all.The fact is, those ignorant jackoffs who are the entire never-fails constituency of the Demwit party don't think for themselves and are the ones who need to be educated, and the best way to do that is the arrest, show trials, and executions of the global warming demagogues in and out of office. Figuratively of course.
