Al Gore Wants to Spend $15 trillion to fight "global warming"
Daily Caller ^ | 04/25/2017 | Michael Bastach

Posted on 04/25/2017 11:20:34 AM PDT by gattaca

A group of executives who want to fight global warming has published a new report calling for countries to spend up to $600 billion a year over the next two decades to boost green energy deployment and energy efficiency equipment.

The Energy Transitions Commission’s (ETC) report claims “additional investments of around $300-$600 billion per annum do not pose a major macroeconomic challenge,” which they say will help the world meet the goals laid out in the Paris agreement.

ETC is made up of energy executives, activist leaders and investment bankers, including former Vice President Al Gore, who would no doubt get a piece of the trillions of dollars they are calling for.

ETC’s goal is to “accelerate change towards low-carbon energy systems that enable robust economic development” and limit global warming. ETC’s report comes out as the Trump administration considers whether or not to stay party to the Paris agreement, which went into effect in 2016...

That’s a $15 trillion price tag to theoretically limit future global warming.

Thank you for referencing that article gattaca. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Patriots are reminded that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the corrupt feds the specific power to tax and spend in the name of politically correct global warming.

So it’s up to other countries to tax their citizens to pay for unaccountable funding to fight politically correct global warming.

Exactly. Hogs will be hogs. He should be stripped of his honirs and thrown in jail for the biggest CON in history.

He probably wouldn’t pay a dime but it will be forced on the rest of us. That will put us all in the poor house forever...

I note that these big advocates don’t spend their hard earned graft to resolve any problems.

He has disgusted me for decades.

It is, he should be in jail. He invests in these green companies then gets fed money invested so the stock goes up then he cashes out and the company nose dives because it’s a B.S. company. He hasn’t held one job since he was VP yet he’s worth over half a billion now.

Go for it, Al. Spend every dime you have and save the world. It’s the least that a true believer in Climate Change religion should do.

He can’t spend our money any longer.

That’s why I say he can spend all he likes.

Burn through your own money Al. Enjoy...

Trump has already put the kibosh on spending our money.

That’s a $15 trillion price tag

The whole global warming mess could be fixed with a single box of CCI Stingers.

He gets that fabulous wealth from his royalties for inventing the Internet.

If The Goracle read the AL Gore posts on FR he would be wishing he had never invented the Internet.
