UN analysis concludes global roll-out of clean energy would shave
only a tiny fraction off economic growth

"“It
doesn’t cost the world to save the planet,” said economist
Professor Ottmar Edenhofer, who led the Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change (IPCC) team."
Personally,
all things considered, from 42 years participating in "Conservation
Societies" aka the Greens, observing nature, deforestation,
species-extinction, the science, and human trends away from harmony
with nature, I'd say this bloke is dreaming, albeit that I am onside
with the existence and work to now, of the IPCC.
"The
cheapest and least risky route to dealing with global warming is to
abandon all dirty fossil fuels in coming decades, the report found."
So
the end of the auto industry - global - ["as we've known it,
Jim"] is the planet's best news this century!
People
just have to grow up and shake the oilcorp et al, misinfo on
Cannabis, and embrace it for it's industrial magnificence - bio-fuel
and oil, polycarbonate instead of iron-ore-to-steel, seeds for top
nutrition, as a medicinal, and as a carbon-soak for the air.
"The
authoritative report, ....... dismisses fears that slashing carbon
emissions would wreck the world economy. It ....... has already shown
that climate change is “unequivocally” caused by humans and that,
unchecked, it poses a grave threat to people and could lead to wars
and mass migration."
Who'd
of thunk!?
Is
THAT why some Stoners call Cannabis the "Holy Herb", 'cause
it alone, could resolve all those 'grave threats'?
“The
report is clear: the more you wait, the more it will cost [and] the
more difficult it will become,” said EU commissioner Connie
Hedegaard. The US secretary of state, John Kerry, said: “This
report is a wake-up call about global economic opportunity we can
seize today as we lead on climate change.”
The
UK’s energy and climate secretary, Ed Davey, said: “The [report
shows] the tools we need to tackle climate change are available, but
international efforts need to significantly increase.”
So,
Kerry tries to redeem hisself, after being exposed over Ukraine and
the Palestine/Israel bullshit. Fair enough. At least he's addressing
this larger crisis with useful words!
And
the 3 biggies, USA, UK and Germany all complimenting the IPCC's
report, should shake little Tiny Hobbott's whiteguy-strut blindness
scales off, and get even the dumb LNP to embrace our Green Needs. But
it remains for the Greens to direct Policy.
Do
the IPCC also see the egomaniac anti-Nature citiphile aspirational,
maximum-consumption church-schooled nutjobs being behind this, as a
“fuck you!” response to being asked to live like sane Human
Beings? “NOT MY FAST CAR!” stomp stomp! wank-wank!
"The
benefits include reducing air pollution, which plagues China and
recently hit the UK, ...."
Umm?
"Recently hit the UK"? THEY STARTED IT!
"Biofuels,
used in cars or power stations, could play a “critical role” in
cutting emissions, the IPCC found, but it said the negative effects
of some biofuels on food prices and wildlife remained unresolved."
"...could
play..."? "...could play..."? "negative effects"
"negative effects"....?
Cannabis
seed, Cannabis seed, Cannabis seed, Cannabis seed,
"Cows
love it,
birds eat it,

"WWF’s
Samantha Smith said: “The IPCC report makes clear that acting on
emissions now is affordable, but delaying further increases the
costs. It is a super strong signal to [fossil fuel] investors: they
can no longer say they did not know the risks.”
And,
that they are on THE list, as long as they stay egomaniacs and ignore
THE SCIENCE.
"Kaisa
Kosonen, at Greenpeace International, said: “Renewable
energy is unstoppable. It’s becoming bigger, better and cheaper
every day.
Dirty
energy industries are sure to put up a fight [HA!]
but it’s only a question of time before public pressure and
economics dictate that they either change or go out of business.”
Therefore,
it's up to We The People, to force out the oil-corp political
investors from all party funding, thus, to also in-one, force out of
politics - the bribe-taking, sycophantic POLITICIANS!
VOTERS?
IT'S UP TO YOU!
