Copenhagen is an absolute ****ing disaster
The final draft is still being written, but it looks like a total WASTE of time.

There are no clearly defined targets. EVERYTHING is voluntary. Developing countries are furious. The US again failed to show leadership.

And Canada, my country, was judged as one of the WORST offenders for total inaction and the insistence on developing the oilsands petroleum hellhole.

Already, environmental groups are calling it "Copenfailure".

I can't tell you how bitterly disappointed I am. I weep for humanity.

So maybe, just maybe, somewhere out of view, behind the scenes, there are a few grownups trying to defend the economy of the free world against this crazy gorescam. Our peril is that none of these grownups are in the executive branch of the U.S. government.

1. Even developed countries are furious.

No, only the moonbats in developed countries, like, say, Prince Charles, and Canuckistan.

5. Unrecs don't bother me tonight
It's easy to pay someone to disrupt a discussion board.

Hell, it's cheaper than buying your average politician.

At $8/unrec, it isn't that much cheaper. This is a better gig than the careers they advertise on matchbooks and utility poles.

8. Oh no!
Just wait and see. We'll get a new 2% VAT or sales tax! The IMF bank will be pleased!

Isn't that what really matters?

11. Give it a little time. When snorkle sales go up, people will begin to get serious.  
How much is the New Orleans price tag for repairs? How many more of them will we experience, and how many more will the planet see?

By the way, in case anyone is interested, humans are putting out 100 times the CO2 output of all volcanoes on the planet right now.

There's that word again! And as far as NOLA is concerned, I thought W killed that damn town. What's this "repair" business?

14. Voluntary ****ing Targets!
Which means that none of the damned targets will be met anyway because nobody has to meet them.

What a ****ing bad Joke.

It really sucks that there really isn't any way to hold politicians and government lackies accountable for the bullshit, incompetence, and lack of progress they force all of us to live with.

It is enough to make me really wish there was a God sometimes, and that he or she might really answer just prayers, if only so that there might be a way for all the powerless people of the world to get real justice in the end.

It's an appealing fantasy. Having to live in a world where the Powerful thrive and profit while never taking any responsibility for solving the problems they create is endlessly galling.  
DUmmies want the power plants shut down. No nukes, no coal, no electricity, no hydro. They tried with the "acid rain" scam, but it didn't take. People finally figured out those dead trees were killed by gypsy moths, not "acid rain". Now they want to do it with the gorescam. Wait til they find out that will cause their grow lights to go out. The democrat base depends on grow lights.

And we all know what a big success THAT was.

20. It's fast becoming our national shame
We used to be leaders in environmental issues. We've now become the main problem.

What makes it hard is that in terms of public opinion, we're totally in agreement with major changes.

Unfortunately, it's our ****ing Conservative Harper government that's calling the shots right now.

God, I hate them.
Pretty sad when we have to have our ass saved by the socialist Canadians.  


So, what does the dumbest person on all the internets think about this situation?

30. Big changes would require sacrifices nobody is willing to make.  
Anyone who understands the full extent of carbon emissions by modern societies knows that we cannot make a dent in emissions without serious sacrifices. And one of those is untouchable. Unmentionable. No one will even discuss it. Population must decrease. That is first and foremost. And it most likely wasn't even mentioned at the summit.

We're in deep trouble. I posted engine manufacturing plant videos from World War 2 factories some time ago. Just that period of our history caused monstrous emissions. The Berlin airlift? It had to be done. But the emissions? Good god! A billion gallons of fuel for the Iraq war a year ago, was what I calculated.

Every trip to the market in 1950. Every yo-yo ever produced. Every movie production crew and transportation. Every dental device being manufactured and transported. Every cubic yard of cement mined and refined.

It's mind boggling. And if the population were small enough it wouldn't be overwhelming the planet. But in combination it's the end of the ecosystem.

I can't even communicate it. But as long as we're burning fuel to do stuff for us, and this many of us are doing it, then we're in trouble. And two billion people are just joining the club. It's going to get worse before anything happens to make it better. I don't have much hope.  
DUmmy Gregorian should do his small part to solve the overpopulation problem by joining Skidmore and ladyhawke in a suicide pact. If he truly believes that drivel, then it isn't worth living, is it?

Remember being told about the Orson Welles 1930's radio broadcast called "War Of The Worlds"?  This "Global Warming broadcast" is just like that only longer, wider, less believable, not as polished, and aired with sinister intentions.

Copenhagen, like Kyoto before it, was based on the ultimately silly Star Trek conventions.  It hosts a bunch of like-minded people entertaining their fantasies about a world they wish existed, because if it did exist, their fantasy of socialist control would be validated and To Serve Man really could be a cookbook.

That's what wars are for.  Oh, wait!  Silly me, you oppose war.  In that case, lead by example:  take yourself out....

I guess they don't make engines anymore, so you had to post videos from WWII factories? 
The world uses about 80 million barrels of oil a day.  That's over 3.35 billion gallons.  If we have used only a billion gallons in 5 years fighting a war, while at the same time the world has used about 6 trillion gallons of oil, then we have used approximately .01% of the total oil consumed in the world fighting the war.

Oh, I misread that last word.  You said "HOPE".  I thought you said "DOPE".  Silly me.   :lmao:
Mankind's TOTAL contribution to atmospheric CO2 is less than 3%.  The oceans contribute 50 times what we do. 
But you and your fellow DUmmies can help save the planet and reduce CO2 being added to the air.
Stop breathing, kill yourselves, only don't decompose, because that would put the carbon in your bodies back into the air, and that ain't good....

No. They only want to shut down American free enterprise. Ringleaders, like Gore and the phony scientists, see an opportunity for huge personal gain from all the bogus industries that would suck up public funds. The huge majority of the rank and file just want to shut down America. There is a significant number of the gorescam foot soldiers who are simply morons, who think the ocean is coming to Charlotte. In ways this is so similar to the Y2K scam it's spooky.

It is just something I can`t wrap my mind around.
They will go on and on about imported goods and that it all should be made here.
Then they will say that every job should be a union job.
Still they think under that scenario they will buy the computer they type away at for the same price as they do now.

I have never been to a convention, although I did get to sit in Picard's captains chair. It was won by someone in the area, who ended up putting it on display at a video game shop in an area mall - surrounded by ropes to keep people away from it.

Well, it turns out that a good friend of ours worked at the store it was displayed in, and he was closing that night - there are photographs of me, the missus, and a few other friends in the chair. It was roomy, but surprisingly uncomfortable. the fake glass touchscreen in the arm of the chair was still there, lit up by a small light. no beeps. all the magic lost.  Someone made a comment, I forget who, about the chair being filled with Patrick Stewart's beer farts - that was the highlight of the evening.

How come Gregorian didn't get out his handy calculator and determine how much damage was done by all those douchebags flying over there on private jets, and tooling around in limos?  Also, of all the vast wide world of manufactured objects, why did he pick on "dental devices."  It's very, very odd, isn't it?

Where do they get their information? I read an article, it may have Lord Monckton but I'm not sure, that humans only produce 3% as much CO2 in a year as the eruption of one volcano in one day does. Considering the leaked emails, I'd trust the source I read over whatever one the Dummies are using.
