At the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development 178 countries voted to adopt Agenda 21. Agenda 21 is non-binding action plan that sets climate sustainability and poverty. guidelines for national, state and local governments. Proponents argue that the agenda’s guidelines will encourage federal and local governments to protect the environment and combat poverty. Opponents argue that global organizations should not make rules for local governments and these rules are unnecessary because they are impossible to enforce.
@9K6HR9K2mos2MO
No, this only subdues us and makes us only look more controlled to the weak jewish mindsetted and bankerist dogs while their cabinets reeks of dumb communistic idealized pigs who have nothing in common with anyone, total demolition is what we need for the headquarters and such as mass death.
@95K5YQG2yrs2Y
They should be a guideline, but they should figure out solutions that work for each community rather than adhering to one way.
@945C4M22yrs2Y
Yes, but they should make up community solutions that work.
@93RPYDT2yrs2Y
It vareys based on what the guidlines are
@8QXR442New Democratic3yrs3Y
Yes as long as the guidelines are reasonable
@8QX2HL83yrs3Y
Yes, except I don't want us to be apart of the UN
@ECrierie3yrs3Y
No, the UN can get bent.
@8PZND2G3yrs3Y
yes and increased sanctions on countries that are the top contributors of global pollution
@8PJMGYM3yrs3Y
No, we don't need the UN or their regulations to regulate our country or local regions! Canada is its own sovereign and independent nation!
@8PDXT893yrs3Y
Yes, and exceed the guidelines. Also the UN should be abolished
@8P9CY8Q3yrs3Y
We should try to be respectful to the international community, though Canada should also know when to take a stand against international norms.
@8P784MT3yrs3Y
No, it depends on the elected mayor and there stances on the local environment problem.
@8P4QCTG3yrs3Y
Yes, but we must be able to set our own legislation that reflects the UN's policies.
@8NZWYH63yrs3Y
They should take them into consideration but decision makers should not be required to follow them if they don’t agree with them.
@8HYJT5G4yrs4Y
if their are good guidelines then yes if not then no
@8DMCFB84yrs4Y
No, because it would be really tricky in a country the size of Canada.
@8DFVTYV4yrs4Y
Adhere to a percentage as a target.
@9JV5LCX 2mos2MO
No, because not all countries have the same level of pollution nor production nor trees to compensate.
China, for example, is responsible for over 50% of all pollution and won't impose the same restrictions until 2060. We need manufacturing to return here to reduce pollution impacts due to global trades. impacts.
@9GYSNHD5mos5MO
Yes, have it as a guideline for public policy to find solutions that work and accomplish goals of the Paris Agreement.
@9GNXXXT6mos6MO
Have it as a guideline for public policy to find solutions that work and can accomplish goals of the Paris Agreement.
@9F6D3RDConservative8mos8MO
Conform to the larger policies of the UN while finding local solutions to the smaller issues.
@9DB86MG8mos8MO
Use the guidelines as a stepping stone to build solutions that work for each community
Yes, but we have to come up with ways in which it works for us, as every different nation has different factors.
@9CSJ4929mos9MO
It depends. Sometimes these requirements are inappropriate or not the best alternative.
@9C656B311mos11MO
No. I do not trust the UN. They have done more harm than good.
@9BZ2SK611mos11MO
Yes, but this should be something all governments at every level should do in every economically advanced nation.
@9BKK3RM1yr1Y
yes, however Canada already exceeds the UN environmental guidelines
@9BK2RQ61yr1Y
It's a good guideline, but it's not legally binding. So, instead we should have people take inspiration from it and work to find solutions that work for each nation, province/state and community, town or city.
@99JW2WF1yr1Y
depending on the circumstances
@98RTBB51yr1Y
we should just take care of our own land and what not
It's a good starting point, but I would say that it's important to come up with solutions that work for each community, so that we can protect the environment but also do it in a way that is beneficial to the communities that we live in.
@98BDSQL1yr1Y
Canada should use guidelines from the United Nations, but draft our own policy.
@9622B9V2yrs2Y
No, come up with local solutions that work for each community (and the UN should be abolished)
@937VH9B2yrs2Y
@9342V9M2yrs2Y
Yes, but adapted to each locations specific requirements.
@92JJNYM2yrs2Y
No, we should set our own guidelines and become the world leader in environmental protection.
@8ZNHMP8New Democratic2yrs2Y
yes, and increase sanctions on countries that are top contributors of global pollution
@8ZN4YG42yrs2Y
Yes, we should follow the goals of the Paris Agreement and take the necessary steps, however we must also look at practical solutions that work for our communities/economy, and work to be the one of the global leaders in environmentalism.
@8ZBWP9W2yrs2Y
We should work towards following the environmental guidelines set by the United Nations, but we need to focus on what respective communities need so we don't damage the stability of said communities. We should also increase sanction on countries that are top contributors of global pollution.
The UN should be aboloshed and replaced with a democratic dictatorship of the world proletariat.
@8VRV6GZ3yrs3Y
Yes, but only if it is economically feasible to do so
@8VRD2783yrs3Y
Depends - we can pick and choose which works best based on locality and provincial needs.
@8VPV3H93yrs3Y
In a perfect work, the UN should help organize a global effort to fight environmental issues. However, this isn't a perfect world
@8VH22SV3yrs3Y
Canada should not support the u.n.
Not be required to but seriously attempt to .
@8V97FCK3yrs3Y
I honestly have no idea
@8V88N2G3yrs3Y
I don't have all the information needed to have an opinion on this matter
@8V7LPJX3yrs3Y
If Canada chooses to follow, then let our guidelines be determined by our leaders
@8V5QT493yrs3Y
It only works if it's actually a binding agreement - it's completely toothless and therefore worthless in its current form
