Climate Damages Tax Plus Cocktails from Hell

The United Nations is now looking to impose a tax for extraction of fossil fuels to help pay for the growing costs of damage from harsher storms, wildfires, floods and rising seas while providing a stronger incentive to wean the world off carbon-heavy energy. The tax would lay the cost of rising disaster losses directly on the industries “most responsible” for them, according to a report released at U.N. climate negotiations in Poland. Tom Harris, Executive Director of the International Climate Science Coalition, will join me to talk about it. In the second hour, Col. Austin Bay will stop by to discuss his book, Cocktails from Hell, where he wrote about the most dangerous threats against peace facing the United States, and the world. Don't forget about the Edwards Notebook and the Veteran's Tip of the Day! All of this and more as time allows. Listen live, join the chatroom, be a part of the show.
