End Fossil Fuel Subsidies Now

The pardoxes in climate change are astounding. Developed countries give $400 billion per year in subsidies to fossil fuel companies. They give $4 billion to developed countries to help them fight the problems caused by fossil fuel emissions. That’s 100 times more money given to those creating the problems, versus those desperate for solutions. WE MUST END FOSSIL FUEL SUBSIDIES NOW. Watch this video, then come back and send President Obama an email urging him to put climate change on the front burner!

I love speaking about ideas for achieving humanity’s success, which were passed on to me in 1982 by American genius Buckminster Fuller. Bucky’s ideas and integrities reflect subtle shifts in thinking necessary to help humanity find a more sustainable path to the future. Or at least to know we were leaning in the right direction.

    Um, source? If you are referring to the IEA estimates, those relate to developING and emerging countries (China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Venesuela, etc.) not developED countries. Kind of changes the story. If you want to find data on government budgetary support and tax expenditures for fossil fuels provided by mainly developed countries, click on the link below.
