Climate change being politicized is a scam. Zero evidence of human influence on weather natural cycles – not enough data and all current predictions happened to be alarmist nonsense. Demonizing CO2 as a pollutant is just insane. Not buying this crap.

I don’t think talking about an ever-changing country like Bangladesh or any other country, unless you have been there, and know the good & the bad of the Government & most importantly – The People – is very smart. Mr. 69, you brought politics into a post about ‘Climate Change,’ and the strength of the ‘Left,’ by what I read seems to be waning, but the immediate problem facing Bangladesh is twofold, and you don’t need to live there to know what they are: COVID – 19 – 20, and 21, ‘Variations’ of the Virus, and it’s ability to adapt, and, of course a Planet in Peril. Thank you my friend… tom

@Tom Burns Yes, the left is weak except they control all 3 branches of the US government (by fraud), social media, holywood, mainstream news, schools, universities and so much more. Just because the vast majority of people dont believe that white people are the blame for other groups bad behaviour, doesnt mean the left doesnt have too much power. Trust me, the climate crisis is just another facet of the attack on western society. Just as the previous incarnations where it went through several stages of warning us of an upcoming ice age, then an upcoming feedback loop of warming. All just rubbish to destabilise.

@Aspartame69
One thing I’ve learned is the older you get the more clearly you see that left, right and fence straddlers are always going to be there. Power is continuously shifting mostly ending in the same place it began; most of it wasted energy. I’m seeing more & more that right & wrong are most important, Left & Right has little meaning to me. Posit: Right & wrong are subjective notions. I know what’s right, but another thinks right is something different. I see Democrats, and Republicans always fighting, not working for the people only themselves, it’s endless, and frustrating. It’s an undertow pulling you without direction. That’s how I look at it tonight. Tonight I am beginning to lose my faith in how government is conducted in America, and wonder was America ever united at all. Maybe I’m just tired.
Take care, Mr.69

That’s why I think that companies shouldn’t be run like dictatorships by CEOs and shareholders and companies shouldn’t be run by the state, but rather companies should be run by the workers themselves in a direct democratic fashion. This results in more transparency and most importantly, a much better distribution of wealth among workers.
Economic democracy instead of economic dictatorships.
Aspartame69
February 15, 2021 at 8:38 pm
@Romanski Democracy has no way to protect itself from bad ideas. Why would you undermine a system that has gradually increased peoples standards of living for more than a century and replace it with an untested and on the face of it, unworkable mess of administrative turmoil. Democracy lasts only until you realise you can vote to give yourself money. Then either the democracy, or in this case, the company, collapses.

Solar power is good. Electric cars are also good.We’ve spoken of Climate Change for many years. No matter how serious it’s becoming only a handful, like yourselves, take it seriously. Change on a Planetary scale is what’s needed. We do not have this kind of technology yet. Sorry to speak gloom & doom. There are too many variables involved in stopping what’s already become a multi faceted Planetary Pattern that’s been happening for over a Century. Could we stop an

You talk about the best way to solve a climate crisis and then say that it’s fake. You make no sense.
Global warming is is a real thing and it desparately needs to be dealt with.
Al Gore and Greta Thurnberg are only that vocal because too many are ignoring it and/or not acting quick enough.
Am I an activist in this area? No. I simply haven’t got the time. However, I do what I can to contribute to change and I don’t ignore the science. I’m also glad there are people out there who are pushing for change at a national and global level.
Pete C
February 11, 2021 at 2:46 pm
@David Kirlew-Morris Climate change exists because climate changes, has always changed ever since Earth has had a climate.
The issue is that it is being used as a tool to push fear saying there is a catastrophe coming round the corner. There isn’t. It’s all a psyop.
David Kirlew-Morris
February 11, 2021 at 3:02 pm
@Pete C Yes, climate changes, but statistics show that temperature increases are way more than they should be. This has been caused over time by things like mass industrialisation, releasing of harmful substances into the atmosphere, not enough regulation, etc.

It is not mankind’s fault for the climate in living it is from those of GREED. Simple phrase given to me that would have solved all of our worldly years ago,………”Love the father love one another.”

I am no climate change denier, I see the problem just like you do. But I can’t follow people who don’t shoot straight. So many promises have been made and broken by people just like you countless times in the past. I’ll believe it when I see it.

Hi there, I was wondering when we talk about today’s money, we say it’s created from thin air. There is no backing like gold for this money. I was thinking the money printing is done by cutting trees, why don’t we have a system, where the entire money supply is backed by valuable trees which have value and usability, plus they are life force on this planet.
This way we will value the trees plus we will save the planet and stop Govts to print money as and when they want it. Please share your thought and if someone from Economics can explain about it, whether it is possible or not.
