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.

@B36JNQYConservative2mos2MO
Yes, and exceed their guidelines and also increase sanctions on countries that are the top contributors of global pollution.
@B3MY9V31mo1MO
depends on other government guidelines, if other governments have good guidelines then yes, our government should follow those guildlines, if other governments have bad guidelines then no.
@B3HV94Q2mos2MO
It is almost impossible to meet the environmental guidelines set by the United Nations by the time it is set, however we should try to meet it regardless.
@B39J9Q92mos2MO
Exceed guild lines to become leader in standards but should sanction top contributors of global pollution
@B36JLNR2mos2MO
Have local solutions that work for each community whilst following guidelines and increase sanction to top pollution countries.
@B32CB8K2mos2MO
The country should follow the guidelines but if they stray away from it slightly it isn't biggest deal in the world
@B2SQM722mos2MO
If the solutions provided by the UN are applicable to a nation and are beneficial, they should use it as an example.
@B29BM443mos3MO
The guidelines should be considered, but we should have regional solutions and standards, while also sanctioning countries that are top contributors
@9ZZCS474mos4MO
increase sanctions on countries that are the top contributors of global pollution instead while also implementing our own sanctions to contribute
@9ZNXMHS5mos5MO
I would do our best to go in the direction of those guidelines and simply follow though, maybe over four or five years, and then continue that trajectory onward.
@9K6HR9K1yr1Y
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.
@9F6D3RDConservative2yrs2Y
Conform to the larger policies of the UN while finding local solutions to the smaller issues.
@9DB86MG2yrs2Y
Use the guidelines as a stepping stone to build solutions that work for each community
The UN should be aboloshed and replaced with a democratic dictatorship of the world proletariat.
@8VRV6GZ4yrs4Y
Yes, but only if it is economically feasible to do so
@8VPV3H94yrs4Y
In a perfect work, the UN should help organize a global effort to fight environmental issues. However, this isn't a perfect world
@8V88N2G4yrs4Y
I don't have all the information needed to have an opinion on this matter
@8V7LPJX4yrs4Y
If Canada chooses to follow, then let our guidelines be determined by our leaders
@8TXCC9Y4yrs4Y
Yes, as a guideline. However, different countries have different needs. Canada does not cause as much pollution as China for example. Thus, we cannot treat them equally
@8TMK7QG4yrs4Y
No, not until other countries are held to the same standards.
increase sanctions on countries that are the top contributors NOT based on population, emission is emission, if China were to stop contributing, emissions are reduced by 30%. Using population is a diversion to the real problem which is emission.
@8SZ4XV24yrs4Y
Yes, but the United Nations should make China and India more responsible when it comes to Climate Change.
@8SCRSMG4yrs4Y
No use solutions specifically made for the affected are
I think we should do better than the requirements
@8QX2HL84yrs4Y
Yes, except I don't want us to be apart of the UN
@8PJMGYM4yrs4Y
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!
@8PDXT894yrs4Y
Yes, and exceed the guidelines. Also the UN should be abolished
@8P9CY8Q4yrs4Y
We should try to be respectful to the international community, though Canada should also know when to take a stand against international norms.
@8HYJT5G5yrs5Y
if their are good guidelines then yes if not then no
@92JJNYM3yrs3Y
No, we should set our own guidelines and become the world leader in environmental protection.
@8XZC2RV3yrs3Y
No the best way to deal with climate change is by making our cities more green. By doing so we eliminate the majority of carbon emissions
@8V5Z6RL4yrs4Y
we should follow the environmental guidelines Canada's indigenous populations would follow
@8TVBR2W4yrs4Y
To some extent, but not as a requirement.
@8R79FJX4yrs4Y
dont really know what the guidelines are
@8GJ55J3Conservative5yrs5Y
They should, if possible.
@9BZ2SK62yrs2Y
Yes, but this should be something all governments at every level should do in every economically advanced nation.
@99JW2WF2yrs2Y
depending on the circumstances
@9622B9V3yrs3Y
No, come up with local solutions that work for each community (and the UN should be abolished)
@93RPYDT3yrs3Y
It vareys based on what the guidlines are
