    There are tens of agreements by most countries on earth pledging to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to reduce global warming.

    The atmosphere’s greenhouse gas content has not yet reached its peak.

    Why is the NATO spending target more important than fixing global warming?

      Yes, but unfortunately none of those are tied to membership to a military or economic block with significant political consequences.

      It obviously isn’t. I don’t understand the question.

      because Canadians are delusional morons.

      what is more likely to happen to you in the next 25 years, invasion by Emmanuel Goldstein or getting sick of a disease?

      We spend fuck all on diseases research, orders of magnitude more on pointless toys which just give $ to the USA.

        You spell ‘sweden’ and ‘germany’ weird, but I know you meant to write the name of the places from which we made the last two significant military purchases.
