 been held hostage to access to the wind. They have not ever been weaponised, nor will they be.”

 our ability to pay.. The health costs alone of burning fossil fuels would render them impossible to market. A Dartmouth College study revealed that the global wage losses from rising heat due to the burning of fossil fuels in the five highest emitting countries
 have been about $6 trillion in the past 25 years. The US alone is responsible for almost $2 trillion in lost income. Other countries, many of them poor, have been paying our bills. They have noticed and are working on removing the legal barriers to gaining
