Question:
Would you have re-signed the Paris accords and gone to Glasgow?
This past November, world leaders in government, policy, business, etc. met in Glasgow to set new targets on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The United States, led by President Biden and his team, attended and with new agreements and targets set.
Now, many may debate the efficacy of the COP sessions and whether progress is being made fast enough to counter the climate crises. Yes, a serious discussion for serious, smart, well-intentioned people.
Regardless of your views one thing is clear and important:
The United States was there.
If we had a republican in the White House, it’s very, very likely that the US would have been a complete no-show. absent. ZERO.
So this simple diary is to request that every candidate during the 2022 season be asked the question:
“Would you have attended Glasgow?” We know the GOP’s answer, and it’s disgraceful. On this issue alone they show themselves as stupid, bad leaders that don’t know the first thing about innovating for economy of the future.
