Title: The European Union’s Unreasonable Forecast
Topic: European Union
Discussed by Dr. Marlo Lewis
with Competitive Enterprise Institute www.cei.org
The European Union (EU) has made a proposal to cut emissions by 2050.
Now, we
all agree that we must take care of the world that God has entrusted us with. No
argument there. But – BUT – God has also given us the tools and natural
resources to help make our lives easier, cleaner, and healthier. The EU,
however, wants us to go back to the dark ages – literally.
Dr. Marlo Lewis, with the Competitive Enterprise Institute, explains the
proposal by the EU. He says, “They want the world to agree to a treaty that
requires {every nation} to reduce it emissions of greenhouse gases 60% below
2010 levels by the year 2050.” Of course, Obama is all for this and will do
everything in his power to sign this treaty before his Presidency expires.
Why can’t we just do it? Wouldn’t it better for the environment? Dr. Lewis says,
“It’s unreasonable and unsustainable. The world, under current policies, is on
track to nearly double what we emit now.” He explains how very little emissions
actually come from developed countries like the US; most come from
underdeveloped, poor countries that have little to no access to electricity.
Listen in as Dr. Marlo Lewis explains what these underdeveloped, poor countries
will be required to do under this EU treaty. It’s absolutely absurd!
