- Energy Independence
Something the U.S is easily capable of, given our vast natural resources. Something we might even be at now.
- Preservers rain forest
Lol, so taxing the shit out of Americans is really going to save the rain forest. Get the hell out of here, plus biofuel something the clean energy crowd loves, destroys rain forests.
- Green jobs
I have zero issue with solar, tidal, and hydro, we don’t need the paris climate agreement for any of those things.
- Liveable cities , clean water and air, healthy children
The idea that we’re going to get rid our fossil fuels over night is laughable. We will be using them for a very long time, no clean energy is cost effective or efficient enough at the moment. Also pollution =/= climate.
China puts out way more carbon emissions than the U.S does, yet how many carbon taxes are being proposed against China? 0. Coal, and fossil fuels employee far too many people to simply cut them off, in fact the agreement would kill over 6 million jobs.
The Climate scientists vomit the most laughable horse shit year after year, and wonder why people are sceptical of their doom and gloom message. In the 70s, it was " we’re going to cause another ice age", then when i was a kid i was told the ice caps would be all melted before i reached adult hood, and now Earth will be the planet Venus in 50 years.
And the only way to solve these problems is taxes according to them. The projected decrease in carbon emissions even by liberal estimates, are minuscule, and are not worth 600 trillion dollars, and the amount of jobs killed.
