Well, when you won't be around, why care about the country's debt or the environment?Or maybe when you bankrupt a nation with little or no benefit, the policy should be questioned. France is learning the hard way. I don't have the answer, but you can't cripple economic growth and still assume you will have money to make the changes to help the environment.
At the very least we can say, more coal is not the answer. It is not being kept around for economic reasons, but because of politics.
How much is a seawall around Miami or New York going to cost? How much will it cost us if farmers can't grow crops on their farmland anymore? Neither of those are going to be good for economical growth. Don't be so precious of not hurting economic growth now, because the hurt to the economy is coming. It will be much worse in the future, but people in charge like trump won't be around to deal with the economic pain that will come.
