Remarks to the Global Environment Forum

Remarks to the Global Environment Forum

yadda, yadda, yadda.....

If we fail to act, climate change will intensify droughts, floods and other natural disasters.

Water shortages will affect hundreds of millions of people. Malnutrition will engulf large parts of the developing world. Tensions will worsen. Social unrest – even violence – could follow.

The damage to national economies will be enormous. The human suffering will be incalculable.

We have the power to change course. But we must do it now.

As we move toward Copenhagen in December, we must “Seal a Deal” on climate change that secures our common future. I'm glad that the Chairman of the forum and many other speakers have used my campaign slogan “Seal the Deal” in Copenhagen. I won't charge them loyalty. Please use this “Seal the Deal” as widely as possible, as much as you can. We must seal the deal in Copenhagen for the future of humanity.

We have just four months. Four months to secure the future of our planet.

:ohnoes:  Teh end of the world is nigh!

Even if there is scientific validity to the entire scenario, a proposition which is being viewed with increasing and justified skepticism, the warming would have become irreversible around the start of WW2.  In the unlikely event they have their own supporting science even half-assed right, it COULD NOT be reversed without a 2/3 depopulation of humanity and a complete shutdown of industrial society.

What you're saying is, "We need a good war."....or more communist leaders .....or a list of folks that just need killing.

I'm starting my list just in case it's the last option.
1-Oba...........
2-Bill A
3-Bill C
4-Hill C

I'm making it in a top secret code.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Well...it would TAKE a really gigantic war, with death on a scale absolutely unprecedented in recorded history.  There were more people alive after each world war than before, despite the immense loss of life in them, so the scale involved in those wouldn't even come close.

NEED is a whole 'nother question.  Maybe the Prez's new science advisor or Rahmbo's brother would see it as a "Need," I see it somewhat differently.

Alright, if not a war, how about a pandemic disease? You know swine flu and all.
