The G20 has been taking more into consideration the need to invest more capital to resolve the current problems that the climate change is bringing along. “A leaked draft of the communiqué, published this morning by The Financial Times of London, calls for the use of new fiscal stimulus to help expand the green economy.” This means that global warming is moving up in the agendas of the powerful people in charge of the world’s being. This also means that more money will go to the cause to try to fix the problem in the environment and find new more effective ways to produce energy. The International Monetary fund will receive a $500 billion boost and hopefully a great portion of that money goes towards the research and healing process of global warming. John Kirton, director of the G20 research group at the University of Toronto argues that at least 20 percent of this stimulus should be spent for the cause. This is great because this new green energy deal can not only help us save the planet from global warming but it will also help heal the world’s economy.: ate negotiations to apply the W.T.O. rules to the energy sector.”Mr. Kirton says that if the G-20 leaders take a more proactive stance on such issues, they’ll be better positioned going into a major climate change conference scheduled for later this month.” I think its awesome that the world’s leaders are finally beginning to take the problem seriously and the truth is that this is the only way that it should be taken as because we need to fix it now. If we wait any longer the damage might be irreversible and there will be nothing we could do.
