[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is climate change a money grab???

Maybe denying climate change creates more illness and injury and helps the health care professionals get more business?  As a physician, I can say we don't need more business...more than we can handle as it is.

I see how universal health care and college tuition forgiveness are see as socialist and MAGA doesn't like to share their wealth. But climate policy doesn't share their wealth. In fact, it will cost MAGA less if their homes aren't falling apart from extreme weather and their bodies aren't falling apart from pollution/microplastics.

Anyway, wind/solar are quickly becoming less expensive than fossil fuels....[/quote]

“Carbon credits” or carbon offsets, described and made part of the Paris Accord, are a system easily manipulated and open to massive fraud:

You probably aren't aware that carbon credits and offsets were originally proposed by *Conservative* policy makers as a "market friendly" solution to the climate crisis.  But I agree that they are not very effective.  That's why we should have a straight up carbon tax on the fossil fuel industry.[/quote]
