Excellent. Let’s see how much Tom Steyer and Leo DiCrappio pledge to contribute each year.
No problem. We’ll just roll it into the cost of living.
I want to be one of the brokers putting these deals together, that’s what I want. It will be like owning your own money machine.
IOW, more money’s needed to line more pockets.
Rahm and Moonbeam better find some cash.
I wonder who’s bank accounts this 12trillion dollars will go to?
The city of San Francisco ought to be able to handle that amount.
Welp, they better get crackin’ with their bake sale. I ain’t giving them jack...
It appears this figure doesn’t include the trillions we would be committed to give third world countries under the Paris accord.
Good for them just as long as the US doesn’t send them a dime.
This isn’t so unreasonable; we can pay them in Zimbabwean dollars. $12 Trillion Zimbabwean dollars will buy lunch in Harare.
That’s okay, whats-his-face in New Yawk says he is going to pay it out of his own pocket.
Let’s do the math:
6.5 billion people on earth...
13 trillion dollars needed...
That’s just $2,000 for each human on Earth, of course it the fault of the USA so we should pay 10 trillion (and the other countries will renege).
I am sure China and India will pony up this pocket change.

There are good (and large) estimates for how many people die every year because they don’t have energy for refrigeration, communications, transportation, etc. These estimates are much better science than future temperature estimates (the number of deaths matches observation unlike temperature models)
A lot of this money will go to leaders/dictators/presidents to ensure that millions of people who can be scientifically observed/counted/estimated reliably do not get access to life-saving energy because of temperatures projections which cannot be observed/counted/estimated reliably. But Al Gore isn’t about to take even minor chances with his beachfront property no matter how many people it kills (besides, carbon trading could make Gore billions so screw everyone else).
Wealth Re-distribution at the wholesale level
Thank God President Trump got us out of that boondoggle.
That’s almost $2k for each person on earth. For the Ctrl-Left to pretend the alleged one degree temperature difference, even if true, is worth that much money is insane. Of course, most things from the far left fringe are crazy, so this is not a surprise.
