Bummed about Schneider

We really need everyone we can get. And Stephen Schneider was a climate hero. It is a huge loss, for the climate and the planet. I hope there are more like him to take up the fight.

An International Climate Framework with Cap, Share & Dividend

The UN needs an equity framework to bring countries together. The best approach is Contraction & Convergence, which sets a future date to converge to global per capita equity in GHG emissions. It can be implemented with Cap & Share www.capandshare.org, where people in 1st World countries must buy the 3rd World's extra permits. This money flow will help the 3rd World leapfrog dirty coal and finance sustainable development. In the meantime, the US should implement its own domestic program that caps total emissions and returns the proceeds from an escalating carbon price back to the people: Cap & Dividend.
