Well I'm not denying climate change I just dont think its a smooth process, peoples ability to waste energy is their standard of living, and you'll be voted out the second you limit their consumption and crash the economy.

It would drastically raise interest rates, since oil and gas make up a significant portion of our current account balance, and the housing bubble cant survive higher rates I dont believe; which you'll also raise interest rates dramatically borrowing money to invest in renewables and meat production. We have an over 90% debt to GDP federally and provincially, which is a large weight on growth according to studies, if we cut off our exports what does that do to our debt load and productivity?

I like many of your ideas, but its economic suicide. I've not heard of this flow battery idea built into nature it sounds pretty neat, why are these not used in any other countries, can you really just pump water into a natural reservoir?

Canada is tied to the US whether we like it or not, with most of our exports going there due to proximity. If the USD falls 30%, in order to spurn domestic manufacturing in the US, we are screwed, since we are fully tethered to that wagon.

Maybe thats why he assumes we will give in, being worth 70 cents on the dollar to a currency that is falling to 70 cents on the dollar seems like quite a blow, and what does that do to our bond market and corresponding housing bubble?

What would one do to fight climate change. I'm assuming the first step would be taking over zoning laws federally to rezone for density, then investing hundreds of billions into mass transit instead of social programs.

Then it would be cutting off Chinese imports, obviously dramatically raising interest rates due to inflation, potentially toppling our housing bubble.

Then ending immigration from low emitting countries, causing a dramatic fall in GDP, and an immediate recession. Does this sound right?

Ya that is the bulk of my use, streaming sites and such.

It'd called the Phillips curve, they created a labor shortage via QE. Then to entrench asset price inflation they did higher than normal immigration.

Here's a paper on it, which outlines how wage pressure is normal, and is desirable to reverse the wealth inequality caused by asset price inflation.

Well its good to bring so much attention to him so others can see and lose some brain cells themselves.

Spain said they didn't have the storage capacity with renewables. Germany did shut down nuclear plants and did open coal plants to supplant its energy supply.

All DOS go to heaven. So you'll have Sim City 1 at least.

30fps, downgraded texture quality, and 1080p I would guess. With Gsync maybe it will be playable?
