COP27 Is A Downpayment On Disaster
NOVEMBER 20, 2022
tags: cop27
By Paul Homewood

As usual the BBC paints the latest COP as a “historic deal”!

Despite the hype, very little has been achieved, as the BBC have to admit:

Although a fund has been agreed in principle, there is no agreement about how much is put in, or who pays. Crucially there is no agreement that countries like China, India and Russia will pay a penny. The agreement to set up the fund is meaningless without answers to these questions.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Just like the Articles of Confederation. :3:
