Could Canada's Prime Minister be right on this one about the Kyota Treaty?

Question

He said, If he had known how really bad the treaty was, he would have never signed on. He called it a huge effort to re-distribute the wealth of the world.

Answer 1

Absolutely correct. Another thing Harper is correct on is by giving research money to fossil fuel companies to find new ways of making what we currently do cleaner, instead of replacing it. IF we can clean-up the way we use all fossil fuels (clean coal is a good example) so that we are polluting less without wholesale changes then the industry and people will be more likely to adapt. With Kyoto, valuable reasearch dollars would be sent to other countries for the pure purpose of buying credits....which does not stop the pollution just re-distributes the tax payers money (not corporations).

Answer 2

He's entirely correct. Much of the world's wealth is controlled by a few people and corporations in the oil industry. Kyoto -- and other environmental issues--threaten these special interests greed and stranglehold on the world economy. If they lose that control, millions of people will actually have more money because the oil companies won't be able to rip them off any longer.

Answer 3

Look around if we had signed it ,there would people paying much Moore for fuel . Can we live on 30% less fuel than what we were using,NO Our growth would increase it by 10% U try to calculate how far we would miss the target. The 3rd world countries would not progress that much . China has Sean the truth and is progressing much faster. They meed to get further from the dark side.
