Ezra Levant talks to Professor Joel Kotkin, a liberal Democrat who opposes the Paris global warming (COP21) agreement. MORE news and opinion: http://www.TheRebel.media

Kotkin, the Presidential Fellow at Chapman University, says the agreement will "force the middle class of the West to pay for policies that are going to damage large parts of the economy." Meanwhile, "India and China have no intention of doing this."
