Why climate change action wont create an economic depression

Check out this YouTube clip ... This guy pretty much hits the nail on the head without even going into some of the other benefits that you get from column A which don't come from column B.

I mean if we take action to prevent climate change and the warnings all end up to be false, a global economic depression seems like a bit of a stretch given that

• we wont be paying as much for electricity, yet we would have employed many people in the development of alternatives;
• we'll have more and better quality water which means our agriculture industries and our ability to feed ourselves will still exit; and,
• products will have minimal long-term presence so business will still be required to a employ people to produce the goods that we are all demanding and don't show any inclination to stop doing so.

So to extend his theory, really, there is no option but to take column A; the big question is what should column A include, and will we be able to take this action without the regulation and taxes he refers to?

Also, thanks to Sam de Brito for bringing this to my (our) attention. I enjoy Sam's blog (most of the time!) and highly commend he commentary on the movie Ferris Bueller's Day Off if you want a laugh!
