A Proposal

So what changes do we make specifically?

How do we even think about this problem?

The time for incremental changes is over and we must take radical actions now if we want to save the planet.

A policy think tank in the United States came up with a ‘Green New Deal’ sometime last year. It was backed by a couple of democratic politicians.

It gathered momentum in the public sphere and might become a poll issue in this year’s presidential elections in the country.

But its a polarizing proposal. It has split political opinion across the world. There is little space for nuance when you are arguing about the green new deal with someone. But very few people actually know what the deal is all about.

Its a simple 14 page document, and it has two basic arguments.

Sounds quite reasonable. Right?

You can also read it as a dreaded socialist policy document, depending on how you choose to look at it.

This video from VOX does a great job of explaining what the deal is. And the politics surrounding the deal.
