Anonymous: I'm not the biggest Trump fan either but aren't other countries and politicians contributing to the problem as well? How much of a long term effect can he alone cause in 4 years?
Considering the USA is the #2 CO2 producing country in the world, responsible for almost 20% of all CO2 emissions on earth, yes it matters what Donald Trump does.
He’s only been in power about a month and he’s acting quickly to dismantle programs that have reduced or slowed CO2 emissions. So I think a great deal of harm can be done in 4 years.
So, even the worst polluters are working towards a cleaner future. Trump could drag a lot of the progress we’ve made on combatting climate change backwards.
The earth is a closed system. If 1 nation causes an increase in greenhouse gases, it will effect the entire world.
The world is right on the edge on reaching the temperature threshold of 2 degree warming, which could cause catastrophic damage. Its going to be very hard to keep temperatures below this target without the US also cutting emissions.
We simply do not have much time to prevent the Earth from shifting into a very dangerous climate. What we do in the next decade in response to Climate Change could effect how liveable the planet Earth is for the next century.
a) Every member of the NDP, in good standing 45 days before the closing of the first
ballot (August 17, 2017) is entitled to cast a vote for the Leader in our upcoming
election.
The price of an NDP membership varies by province/territory. It ranges from $0-25 a year.
I just realized that if you’re under 26 years old (or underemployed) you get a large discount on the price of membership (i.e. $0-10 for a year vs $0-25). I’m 28 so I didn’t realize there was a discount.
And I also love that, in the last 5 hours, 9,500 people liked or loved this post. Here’s to a world in which we can all be our favourite characters when we dress up, just as we can be in our heads, when we read…
To be fair, Chandra Arya didn’t vote for the Barbaric Cultural Practices Bill (he wasn’t an MP then), but Justin Trudeau did and almost every other Liberal MP did (including a lot of current cabinet ministers):
