Oh please

The Paris Agreement does nothing for climate change

China said that it might stop in 10 years time

And India said it might stop in 20 years time

wait

how would it block

okay so it's a paris agreement

agreement so anyone can quit or join anytime

ohh they want to make it into a bill

wont pass in the senate

Paris climate agreement does nothing.

Yeah

The real solution is that we invest into climate change

and progress with it

not regress

If there's too much CO2, then we will engineer a way to fix the excess CO2

Instead of trying to "reduce it by nature"

Power is the ability to impose your will upon nature.

Not have nature impose her will over you

Adaption

I think it’s been adequately demonstrated that people with the power to effect policy care more about their personal interests than anything else. The only options are to make them care about the environment - which is not within our power - or deprive them the ability to dictate policy.

duh

that's obvious

Since they are easily able to hide their motives (and even their actions) by outright secrecy or by framing their actions in a misleading way, there is no way to assure that the wrong people do not gain the ability to dictate policy, leaving us with only one viable option - have *no one* dictating policy in the broad scope. Then individual groups may seek out environmental misdeeds, prove them, and act by boycott or direct action to stop them without being roadblocked by enforcement of policies that favor the transgressor.

If you follow the money behind Democrat Politicians, the solar company and wind pay very well with their pockets

cant blame republicans if they want to go solar and wind if the companies are pocketing them as well

I don’t understand the last statement.

Republicans will support solar and wind power

if companies will pay them

but they dont

because it's more expensive to pay a republican on something against their constituent's beliefs than a democrat

unless you ever have a republican incumbent politician in a democrat state

then you might see that republican being a little more democrat

Gotcha. Well, this is what happens when we try to abdicate personal responsibility. We don’t want to deal with the problems of our world ourselves, so we make it somebody else’s job; and the power implicit in that job doesn’t draw people who want to help humanity, it draws people who want to wield that power for personal benefit.

If it benefits them more to harm humanity, then that’s what they’ll do. That will *always* be the case, and thus by making voting our only act of influence, we’ve made ourselves impotent in effecting the change *we* want to see, and unwitting power supplies for the agendas of unscrupulous misanthropes.

"Bottled Water Ban" - Should Bottled Water Be Banned?

No, especially when you can reuse those bottles

Solar radiation managment is a scam for $ and to keep solar from taking over
