Pap and Naomi Klein on Climate Debt - PT. 1/2

While industrialized countries like the United States, China, and India continue to argue over the best way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, small, underdeveloped countries are already starting to feel the effects of global climate change. The worst part is that these countries have done very little to contribute to the problem, yet they're the ones who are paying the price. Ring of Fires next guest says that the US and other carbon emitting countries need to be footing the bill to protect these areas, by what's known as climate debt. Mike Papantonio talks about this concept with Naomi Klein, author of the best-selling book "The Shock Doctrine."

Isn't the climate way the stupidest way into the energy crisis ever?

Like throwing one self off the boat and learning how to swim.

Climate people need to fuck off and die!

Here's a thought. Let all those who feel guilty for polluting surrender their income to the UN. And let them leave the rest of us alone. Tell me, how is said climate debt determined? How do you prevent the recipients from using the money to build up their militaries, industry, and lavishing it on their leaders like these third world gov't often do with foreign aid?
