This is true, Professor Marchal, but more directly, what if they tell Brent, as US Director of the Climatological Remediation Bureau, "Stop telling is what to do. You are already rich and all we want to do is catch up. It's not fair that you have so much, while our people struggle. Why don't you go worry about your own country, and leave us the hell, alone!"
Brent, in direct contact with the Prime Minister/President, recommends an economic boycott of the environmental polluters. The BRIC's respond with fury, and declare a counter boycott. China goes to the UN to complain about economic imperialism, and tries to persuade other countries to boycott these wicked, imperialist, westerners, from using economic weapons to damage the economy and political independence of their home lands. All Loans to the imperialist country, the ASU, are halted. The President calls this economic and monetary, piracy! Brent, disgusted by their insane, intransigence, on the climate, on human survival, calls the President at the golf course, or shooting hoops, says: "Sir. These people and their wicked polluting ways must cease otherwise, the future of our children and their children cannot be assured." The President asks: "What do you recommend, Brent?" Brent, tersely, replies: "We must make an example, Mr. Prime Minister, one of their cities, using a airbust attack at 350 meters, detonating force at 150 kiloton yield." The President is silent for several seconds. Brent uses this as a spot to jump in, "Look, Mr. Prime Minister, our psy-ops teams have determined that if we act soon, the opponents of fighting AGW, will not only cave, economically, but also environmentally! They will adhere to Kyoto, and so much, more, They want their people to survive as well!" The President/Prime Minister thinks a moment.... Of course most progressives, simply ignore what the BRIC's contribute to AGW, and just focus on Europe, North America, New Zealand and Aus. This is because the BRIC's are mostly brown toned, and they also tend to get violent if you piss them off. Not like us lily livered yanks. -----Original Message----- From: Bruno Marchal <marc...@ulb.ac.be> To: everything-list <everything-list@googlegroups.com> Sent: Mon, Nov 11, 2013 3:13 am Subject: Re: Our Demon-Haunted World On 10 Nov 2013, at 05:52, meekerdb wrote: 3. What do you recommend if the US refuses to comply? ?? You mean the U.S. government refuses to act in the best interests of it's citizens: Vote them out. We could have meant that the US government fake to comply. Once a government lie, and the press is no more free, you might miss the data to vote them out. In the health politics, many governments refuse to act in the interests of its citizens, since a long time, but very few citizens realize this, because they are kept uninformed.
