Suggests that instead of charging "rich" countries a climate debt, we absolve all national debts - saving the global South 200 billion a year. Proposes a US plan for counties to keep 2% of their own income tax for every 2% the county lowers its carbon emissions. This would promote local sovereignty, defund the military, and lower emissions 20% by 2020, 40% by 2030, or even 80% by 2050.Tereza CoraggioSun, 20 Dec 2009 21:49:26 +0000http://www.radio4all.net/program/38306Relates statistics about per capita carbon emissions to national debt burdens.
