Everyone will be poor and using dirty energy like russia after the fall of the soviet union or Venezuela.
*If the CBO,and those who subscribe to their logic, dismiss the trillions of dollars price tag as being too great a price,it implies that the CBO has also run a complete cost-benefit analysis which illustrates the cost of mitigation.How else could they argue the difference?
I'm only asking for the other Dollar value.
How can a democracy work without an informed populace? It under girds the entire premise of the United States.
Some economists value Earth's goods and services at $33-trillion a year.If we stand to lose these services,what have we gained by keeping Bertha's Kitty Boutique and Powder Milk Biscuits in business?
PS Who runs the CBO? Are they a presidential appointee,former lobbyist? Have they an agenda to sully the scientific voice as per the last 50-years.And are the hard-working souls at the CBO under gag-order not to say a thing which undermines the appointee's agenda?Like they've done with NASA?
