From the comments: ‘Does Canada want to be a laggard or a leader?’ Readers react to news Canada is warming at twice the rate of the rest of the world GlobePolitics

The midnight sun shines across sea ice along the Northwest Passage in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, on July 22, 2017. Canada is warming up twice as fast as the rest of the world and that warming is"effectively irreversible" a new scientific report from Environment and Climate Change Canada says.Some of the comments are of the usual ostrich variety, but one objection to the carbon tax is reasonably valid.

The Liberals produced this to coincide with the new carbon tax. Not exactly subtle. Do the people in Ottawa really believe that Canadians are this naive?Canada can contribute more to addressing climate change by supporting more clean tech innovation that can be exported to other countries . Imposing higher taxes on consumers and exporting businesses will only serve to curtail demand and therefore economic growth, which is needed to support innovation and funding for climate change adaptation .

globepolitics Isn't it amazing only Canada is warming, isn't it amazing the explanation was we are an Arctic country? So l suppose Scandinavian countries, Iceland, Greenland, and Siberia are no longer there.

globepolitics 🇨🇦, responsible for 1.6% of global emissions suffers from climate change at double the rate of the rest of the globe... Sounds reasonable. 🙄

globepolitics It’s spring..... kinda looking forward to the warmer weather..... look there’s many factors as to global warming. It’s an issue the world needs to get involved in. The fact is the earth is always moving and things change. If humanity doesn’t evolve.....
