Climate change ?? Really?

[Foxx]

Until we get rid of the hot air out of Liar McGuinty, horse face Wynne and Wynne's adopted son Trudeau from their arses and mouth, Canada will always has a climate control problem

Since I was not watching closely growing up, can someone tell me about the economic devastation caused by the SO2 and NOx restrictions implemented to combat the acid rain problem? The US went cap & trade I believe under George Bush Sr. in the 90's, and UK/Europe went with a ratcheting industry emission tax at the same time I think?

What did we do in Canada?

Industrial CO2 emissions are a bit more nuanced and complicated, but why would increasingly restrictive programs - like those used for SO2 and NOx, not work in a similar manner?

The one thing that I really don't trust is that a provincial or federal government would keep the tax revenue out of the general coffers. That money really needs to be set aside to fund improvements, either in retrofits for industry or development of new tech that would benefit everyone.

in the 50's there was a scare that we were going through another ice age. Oh well believe or not, Canada can never change climate we need China and India to curb their pollution then we might see a change in reversal.

Until we figure out how to alter the Earths orbit or figure out how to lower the temps on the Sun I'm thinking our footprint won't change the climate.

I graduated from high school in '69 and the university gang was banging the BS drum with the coming new ice age because our last dozen winters had below normal temps and high snow fall levels. They figured out how to get grant money to "study" the effects. When the weather changed over the next couple of years,their grant money dried up. They had to re-invent the revenue stream,hence,global warming and the scammers have been on a roll ever since. First,it was AGW,but,when that was thoroughly dicredited,it's become simply "climate change".

We are breaking 50 yr old records.......so does that mean global warming was there 50 yrs ago too

The 1950's were actually pretty warm. The ice age fear was in the '70's after the long, cold and snowy 61-72 winters.

This is what Global Warming (rebranded Climate Change) is all about and also a new revenue tool for Politians to tax us more.

They should rename it "global pollution" and work on cleaning that up. Rather than Trudeau somehow keeping the planet's temperature rising 1.5 degrees instead of 2 degrees.........

The only records being broken,right now,is the bullshyte records from "liberal/progressives". The unmitigated arrogance and ignorance that we can change Mother Nature boggles the mind.
