Financing Climate Change

Open Email to:
Rep. David Camp, House Chairman of the House Committee on Ways and Means.
Sen. Edward Markey, Chairman Senate Subcommittee on International Development and Foreign Assistance, Economic Affairs, International Environmental Protection.
I address this to House Chairman Camp, because it is said that his committee exercises jurisdiction over revenue and related issues such as tariffs and reciprocal trade agreements.
I also address this to Senate Chairman Markey, because it is said that his committee has general oversight responsibility for the US development policy and foreign assistance programs, including development, economic, trade, and security assistance programs carried out by the US Agency for International Development, the Millennium Challenge Corporation and other US agencies, and US voluntary contributions to international organizations providing assistance to foreign nations.

The United Nations started to get more serious during its climate change meeting in Warsaw last month. It set up an organization entitled, "Warsaw International Mechanism for Loss and Damage". It's supposed to be a money collection and distribution agency, but it doesn't say how the money will be collected nor distributed. It was proposed and passed by a preponderance of Third World countries, seeking redistribution of wealth. The US had previously been opposed to its creation, but has now agreed. This agreement likely came through pressure from Pres. Obama, who we know is a big re-distribution of wealth advocate.
We notice that during the meeting two major countries have smartened up. Japan had previously pledged to cut its carbon dioxide emissions 25%, but has now reduced that level to 3.8%. Australia had previously gone so far as to pass a carbon tax, but the Prime Minister is now attempting to repeal that tax.
I call these Committee Chairman to follow the situation closely, especially since the US now seems to be part of the money handling group.
I remind all that no one has ever shown a reasonable mechanism for relating carbon dioxide emissions to global warming. In view of that, we can only assume that it is a political maneuver with regard to money.
