Well, sure we can. Where does the United Nations get a giant percentage of its funding from now? Perhaps we can just take that money and give it to nations affected by ‘climate change’ U.S. citizens
U.N. Warns U.S. It Cannot Escape Paying Punitive Climate ‘Reparations’
The United States was warned Wednesday by the United Nations it cannot avoid compensating poorer nations hit by climate change, despite Donald Trump honoring his election promise of leaving the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
Delegates and observers at the COP25 negotiations in Madrid told AFP that Washington seeks a change to the U.N. climate convention that could release it from punitive “loss and damage†funding for developing nations which is predicted to run into the billions of dollars.
Under the bedrock U.N. climate treaty, adopted in 1992, rich nations agreed to help developing countries prepare for unavoidable future climate impacts — the twin pillars of “mitigation†and “adaptationâ€.
A new mechanism was established in 2013, but with damage estimates climbing, there is no agreement on where the money might come from or even if it should be paid, although the U.S. is constantly the target of calls for financial reparations because it is rich, successful and a dominant world economic force.
Well, here’s an idea: the U.S. will no longer provide any aid to developing nations, we’ll just give a portion to the “carbon fund” and let the U.N. dole it out. And wash our hands of the problem. And the problems of the 3rd world nations. They’re all good with that, right? Or, do they think they can shake us down for both? Plus force the U.S. to take uneducated and skill-less refugees?
As Breitbart News reported, the financial impositions being considered include U.N.-administered taxes on financial transactions, international air travel and fossil fuels.
You want a reason to vote Trump? That money comes out of your pocket if a Democrat gets elected.
