Give with small hand, Take with big hand. In September, the European Union offered a plan in which “industrialized nations and economically more advanced developing countries” would provide $33 billion to $74 billion a year to help poor countries adapt, with the European Union’s share placed at $3 billion to $22 billion. The climate bill passed by the House in the United States in June would auction emissions permits, and donate a portion of revenues to help poor countries. The climate legislation is now before the Senate. Connie Hedegaard, the Danish minister of climate and energy, who will be chairwoman of the Copenhagen meeting, recently suggested imposing a new tax on shipping fuel or on airline flights — which both cause substantial emissions — to finance adaptation in poor countries. “We need more innovative financing,” Ms. Hedegaard said in an interview. “The G-20 should come up with fast-track financing that would send a very strong signal that developed countries are serious about this.” ELMAT: When I read those staments all circuit breakers slaps oen and red LEDs start flashing inside my brain.
