Fuck the poor am I right? What kind of scumbag goes around telling people to adopt policies that will create huge amounts of suffering and death, while smugly assuming you will be fine. Most likely you won't though.

Fuck the poor am I right?
Indeed no. In fact the poor are suffering more from climate change than the rich. So rich countries have an obligation to reduce emissions from that perspective too.

It should be blaringly obvious at this point that current strategies to reduce emissions will cause far greater harm than good. Especially to the poor. The only people who can be taken seriously are those who propose increasing grid output, adding nuclear power plants, before banning fossil fuel consumption.

I would advocate putting the correct price on fossil fuel combustion, and then letting the market sort out how to transition, rather than banning them outright by regulation. Companies are smarter than governments, because they have the time to look in detail at their particular situation.

Thanks, I've said as much to others. I write responses for others to read, as its stupid arguments are easily rebutted.
