73% of Young US Voters Eager to Support Candidates With Bold Climate Agenda
Over three-quarters in a new survey endorsed the idea that the "future is frightening" and 62.9% agreed that "humanity is doomed."
You're viewing a single thread.
Who are these candidates with a "bold climate agenda"? I don't know any political party in any country, where I'd say 'they've got a bold climate agenda'.
lol for real though.
There aren't any. The article is talking about what people want.
What would make a "bold climate agenda"?
Fuck cars. Support public transport.
Fuck private planes.
Stop meat and milk subsidies, add extra taxes instead.
No more fossil energy anywhere.
Even that little is bold.
That is pretty much the agenda of every Green party anywhere. With the last point usually taking a decade or so, but still.
Read the Wiki and well, I dont know. It may be a climate agenda, but in my opinion being green isn't necessary being bold.
Bold would be meeting at least what scientist recommend: halving emissions by 2030. I know, that's very much to ask for any country in the world. That's why it's called bold.
What green parties all over the world are doing is: turn the rudder away from fossil fuels towards renewable energy. Which is a step in the right direction, but I think that's not bold. It's the least one can do.
There are some. Plaid Cymru has net zero until 2035 in the manifesto for example. The Finnish Greens even go for carbon neutral by 2030. There are probably more, which in effect would end up in a similar situation. After all the current EU emission target would be a 41% reduction by 2030(55% reduction by 2030) compared to 2022.
Irrelevant Russian stooges
This current one is very much including countries outside of the US and Green Parties have been and actually are in government in a number of countries. Also those parties are mostly not Russia friendly at all.
Stop subsidizing corn. A crazy amount of US crops just get turned into animal feed or ethanol.
