It's about time the Money Pit started falling apart and countries started spending on better things...

How much time and money is being wasted on countless bureaucrats and their limitless expense accounts down there.

Only 3% of CO2 emissions are man-made. Do they really think they can make a difference in the climate or are they just looking for new ways to tax us.

It's amazing that they still have these silly talk-fests anymore. Man made global warming is a fraud and always has been. You only need to read the ever growing number of damning e-mails from the small self appointed gatekeepers of the global warming pseudo-science. They tried to distract you by changing their focus to 'Climate Change' - as if people would not notice that the Earth's climate has always changed - and always will. No scientist worth his salt would claim "consensus" in a discipline that all admit is still in it's infancy. Their minds are closed and will not accept anything against their belief. It's as if the Earth is flat again and no one wants to hear otherwise - or else!

The total of the planets atmosphere is made up of a tiny fraction of CO2 - the politically chosen mechanism whereby wealth transfer payments are to be made - by far the majority of this small fraction is natural.

Man made global warming is dead to all except it's stubbornly faithful followers.

Ever wonder why most of the big countries does not worry about the climate warming and hardly get involve , they know there is another reason for it I am certain of that, especially those country in the western world. I doubt China have the same information that they have anyway. The ice in Alaska is melting at an alarming rate and all around the globe the are signs that nature is also changing. Then everyone want to go green after the damage is done, those counties know it is futile to worry about climate warming and it is too late to turn back now, it would disturb their way of life, and no one is willing to change that, therefore they have no intention to stop polution, no one want to change a thing even if they are evicted from the planet.. The earth is brought to the point of no return, just site back and watch as things goes, as the dinasurs effect takes place. It is a sad fate indeed.

Sharpening the sense of division in Durban, Canada declared that, for it, Kyoto was now history.

It's all about the money with Canada,because the US economy is deep in the doldrums. The old smug superiority is not as affordable as it once was.

"We have to look out for ourselves."

Good luck convincing an average Canadian about the 'dangers of climate change' in the middle of winter, let alone a winter that's forecast to be colder than usual.
