Two decades ago, we were told that the world needed to pass the Kyoto Treaty in order to stop manmade global warming from reaching dangerous and destructive levels. The treaty was passed.
But now, we are being told that the world needs the Paris Agreement in order to stop manmade global warming from reaching dangerous and destructive levels.
Therefore, support for the Paris Agreement is an admission that the Kyoto Protocol was a scam.
Kyoto was rejected by the US senate.
The Paris Climate Accords were only slightly less egregious than the Kyoto Protocol, and in fact were more on the order of a reboot, rather than a real departure.
The Paris deal is just going to have to be rebooted yet again, over and over until they get it RIGHT.
Which means, the entire world must adopt the stringent pollution controls already in effect in the US, and on a date-certain schedule.
And do it WITHOUT relying on the US to provide the money for the conversion. This has to be a self-help deal, or the whole program is meaningless.
In this case with the Paris Accord...is there a reason that Trump didn’t pick up the ‘gimmick’ and hand it to the Senate after he took office and said he felt it was a treaty and wanted their approval? This would have forced the Democrats to play out some approval process but admit massive job losses were part of the structure of the treaty.
We would have gotten the same result out of this...with more discussion over the negatives to the US economy. Even Bernie would have been forced to admit the destruction angle to this.
Bush refused to sign the Kyoto treaty.
Incrementalism
Boil that frog progressively
The New Media is proud of your effort.
All four sentences of it.
Con-artist rule of thumb.
If a scam works and the sucker doesn’t complain,
Wait awhile for the sucker to forget,
Then go back and do it again.
Ah, the good ole days when treaties went to the senate.
The ‘international community’ times these ‘agreements’ to coincide with Democrat presidents. That way they get ‘us’ to agree to trillions of dollar of transfers. The problem they still have, though, is that they haven’t had much luck getting the kind of Senate makeup needed to ratify them.
