Mike Bloomberg Funds Global Warming Conference Trump Stopped Funding

[DAILYCALLER] Former New York Mayor

Michael Nanny Bloomberg’s multi-billion-dollar climate change foundation is replacing the EPA as the primary sponsor for a major global warming conference in Colorado.
That's fine, as long as it's his own money.

The more he wastes on things like this, the less he’ll have to spend where it actually matters. But according to Keynes, it all benefits the economy anyway, so he should be happy about making President Trump look better.

The Center for Climate and Energy Solutions and The Climate Registry announced Tuesday that the Bloomberg Philanthropies will sponsor the Climate Leadership Conference. The move is designed to fill the void left after the EPA discontinued sponsoring the conference in 2017.

Bloomberg, a New York billionaire and staunch environmentalists, has crusaded for months against President Donald Trump’s climate policies. He has dumped millions of dollars on grants to organizations that are working to undermine the president’s regulation rollbacks.

#1 It's good that Trump has stopped the state subsidising conferences for religious cults.

#2 Actually this is a great test case for Keynes' theory, as it's still money down a black hole, even if it's a black hole that eats and buys plane tickets and hotel rooms. I say less positive impact than say a car wash or autobody shop startup.
