Impacts of Paris Accord
Slide 3 of this series.
The impact on the economy from carrying out the Paris Accord is a significant downturn in the economy. The costs in reparations and loss of economic development are staggering. And by all accounts the net reeduction in temperature by the end of this century is only 0.3C if all aspects are carried out. Of course not all countries will do so, not even the USA.
So the net effect is to erect a stronger world organization to levy perhaps taxes and to have more authority. One can review the IPCC section to see what the motives for that are.
How good or absurd is this PA agreement?
We should revisit occasionally what the proper role of government is. As the constitution was a good sense of direction, we need a core set of principles to add in order to deal with the future.
So many want to engineer society, remove risk, assist certain groups, rather than let individuals thrive and raise communities. Why?
Is Democracy where we all "get it good and hard" or is it the best means to a free society?
Should we roll with the special interests, or make the government achieve its proper role, what is that role, and how to do this?
When do deficits and governments become too large?
Government is becoming more elitist while trying to sell corrections to problems it created, what makes this possible?
This section covers the Paris Accord in all of its aspects.
