The Executive Secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change admits to having no experience in climate science. This is the guy pushing the world towards economic disaster through "climate change" taxes.

So how did a Dutch public housing bureaucrat wind up at the epicentre of the fight to slow global warming?
"I had a policy in my life up to then to try something completely different every three or four years," de Boer said of his decision in 1994 to apply for a job within the Dutch environment ministry to head the climate change department.
"To my great amazement, I got the job. I knew nothing about climate change, absolutely nothing," he said in an interview.

Uh....he's just a guy that likes to mix it up a little in his life by changing careers every few years.
Still trust "science" coming from the U.N.? These are the people that will be robbing you of money.
"Poor Countries" will be getting money from "Rich Countries" to combat Global Warming.
It's all a scam folks. A scam intiated by (mainly) African countries to get free money. "Spread the Wealth" on a global scale.
Partial quote:
Developing countries, backed by the UN, argue that they will need hundreds of billions of dollars a year to adapt themselves to climate-related disasters, loss of crops and water supplies, which they are already experiencing as temperatures around the world rise.
End quote.
People, temps have been declining for almost 10 years! This is a scam. The problems these countries are having have nothing to do with the fiction of global warming. It has more to do with dictators and corrupt politicians. There is no scientific evidence, none, that supports any claims of natural disasters due to global warming.
Another partial quote:
Last week, a US negotiator, Jonathan Pershing, said that the US had budgeted $400m to help poor countries adapt to climate change as an interim measure. But that amount was dismissed as inadequate by Bernarditas Muller of the Philippines, who is the co-ordinator of the G77 and China group of countries.
End quote.
Money is being pledged, but not a word on how the money is spent. Except of course for the term "adapt to climate change". Whatever that means.
It's not bad enough that we're getting taxed and spent to death here in America, now we're going to do it on a global scale to ease our "global warming guilt". They want hundreds of billions of dollars per year.
Where is money supposed to come from? TARP, Stimulus, Auto bailouts, record budgets, Cap and Trade, Government Healthcare, Mortgage rescue. All of these things are currently unfunded with no way of paying for them. Now add global climate change funding to the list. That doesn't even include what Doyle is doing.
There is no firm observational confirmation that CO2 is really responsible for the warming during the last century. It is simply and assumption or hypothesis that the IPCC has presented as a fact. Skeptic's Corner: "Notable Quotes"
Senator Fielding said he found that Dr Aldy and other Obama Administration officials were not interested in discussing the legitimacy of climate science.Fielding's climate mission | theage.com.au
The IPCC/UN models have failed so many times you would have thought good old "common sense" would have prevailed by now, in that, the “Man Made“ theory does not work. The fact of the matter is, the media are supporting a spurious theory and in turn misleading the public at large, they even go to great lengths’ to report the models are doing what they all expected them to do, I have even known them to say "cooling is a sure sign of warming"!
Now China wants money from us to help on "Climate Change". They claim to be one of the "poor" countries that should get money from "rich" countries like us.
My head is spinning. Isn't China financing a huge chunk of our debt? Who's the poor country here?
Partial quote:
Meanwhile, China has raised the stakes by demanding that rich countries should in future commit to cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 40 per cent by 2020 from 1990 levels – the upper end of the range that Beijing has named for years – and be required to pay 0.5 to 1 per cent of their annual economic worth to help pay for carbon emission reduction schemes in poorer nations including China.
End quote.
I've been telling you, this whole global warming scam in about money. It has nothing to do with "saving the planet".
Climate cops in Australia. It's all about the money. If it were about "saving the planet", why would anyone need law enforcement to waste valuable time on chasing scammers. Just imagine when this becomes worldwide. Climate laws add to police workload | Herald Sun
[quote=kmfarm;92722]Carbon is good. It's not a pollutant.
Well it kinda all depedns on how you look at carbon. Carbon can be a pollutant because it is man-made waste and CO2 has harmed sea life. But carbon is not "dirty" so yes and no that it is a pollutant.
But carbon foot print and talking about carbon are different strories. You want a carbon negative or neutral foot print that is good, that you can love....But Carbon positive you should not be proud if your carbon footprint is positive. Sadly most of our foot prints are positve... *sighs*

Sorry Lilly, there is zero scientific evidence that Co2 has harmed sea life. Matter of fact, the sea produces more Co2 than humans.

The EPA now says that in fact it is a pollutant. That is my dispute. Something that is essential to all life is now called a pollutant just so it can be "regulated" and therefore taxed.

The fear mongering begins in typical Obama fasion. Remember the stimulus fear mongering? Do you hear the health care fear mongering? Next is "climate change". Gotta get that cap and trade bill passed you know.
Partial quote:
Today's release of the study, titled Global Climate Change Impacts in the United States, was overseen by a San Francisco-based media consulting company, and was part of a carefully crafted strategy by the White House to help build public support for a climate change bill that has run into opposition from some Democrats as well as Republicans in Congress.
End quote.
A report overseen by a media consultant. Sound like good science to you?
Then you're supposed to feel good about 30 government scientists responsible for the pseudo-science in the report. Funny how they don't mention the 31,000 scientists who dispute the findings.
It's another money grab folks! You have been warned.

NOAA predictions wrong AGAIN! Temp data stations failing at an increasing rate as well. Top notch science by the government.
Parial quote.
NOAA proclaimed May 2009 to be the 4th warmest for the globe in 130 years of record keeping. Meanwhile NASA UAH MSU satellite assessment showed it was the 15th coldest May in the 31 years of its record.
Breakdown of how Obamas report is alarmism rather than science. Remember science? That complicated stuff that "scientists" are supposed to use to prove or debunk theories. Theories like global warming. Which has been debunked by real science.
I believe I've covered this before, but it's good to see it again. It exposes the "short-sightedness" of things "green".
Partial quote:
The Prius's reputation as a "green" car is completely undeserved. The culprit is its nickel metal hydride battery.
The nickel is mined in Sudbury, Ontario, and smelted nearby, doing damage to the local environment. The smelted nickel is shipped to Wales, where it is refined. Then it is sent to China to be made into nickel foam. Then it goes to Japan, where it is made into a battery. Then it goes into cars, some of which are shipped to the United States and some of which go to Europe. All of that seaborne transport consumes a lot of fossil fuel.
End quote.
Maybe we could fix this problem by going back to sailboats?
Oh Man! This is not good news. Not if you're Al Gore or Noah Wylie. All those commercials with the sad, sad Noah pleading for money to save the polar bears "before it's too late".
I guess he got it done.
Good job Noah!
Now I don't have to put up with those stupid commercials right?
The famous photograph of two bears standing forlornly on a melting iceberg was produced thousands of times by Al Gore, the WWF and others as an emblem of how the bears faced extinction – until last year the photographer, Amanda Byrd, revealed that the bears, just off the Alaska coast, were in no danger. Her picture had nothing to do with global warming and was only taken because the wind-sculpted ice they were standing on made such a striking image.
Once the citizenry of this country realize that "Man-made" Global Warming is a hoax, they will also realize that "Cap and Trade" is a scam, It will cap their liberties, and trades their freedoms for a for a number. Forget about names.

Carbon is good. It's not a pollutant.
Carbon can be a pollutant because it is man-made waste and CO2 has harmed sea life.
Carbon is the basis of life on this planet. People are carbon based life forms...as is every other life form on the planet.
Plants use CO2 to produce O. Fish live in the oceans, and they like oxygen. They breathe it. It's a good thing.
Let's sum it up. Without carbon, there would be no people, no dogs, cats, gophers, trees.....the list goes on. No Carbon means no CO2. No CO2 means no food for the trees.
I like carbon. It's a vital ingredient in gun powder.
