Kyoto I: Socialist Sucking Scheme

[myata]

MyAta,

I think YOU have only two choices:

1) go find out where in the world it is most affordable to reduce emissions. Pay the inhabitants of that part of the world to reduce their emissions.

Depends on how much their emissions they make in the big picture. If its insignificant, why bother?

2) go find out where in the world you can most easily coerce people to reduce their emissions. Go to war against those inhabitants and force them to reduce their emissions.

Even less practical: definitely more expensive and lot riskier.

How about:

#3 do something in your own backyard and help the others when you've found a good solution?

Or,

#4 do nothing and pray for the best?

Even less practical: definitely more

Je vous felicite.

I made those suggestions because nothing at all seems to be acceptable to you. I doubt you even want to make a difference.

This:

something in your own backyard and help the others

says a lot about why you reject market incentives: you do not know how a market operates.

Make a difference by going to war to make other people make sacrifices to clean the mess left by our own irresponsiblity? Indeed, I would"t be extatic about making that kind of difference.
