By doing nothing, they are in effect saying $$ comes first, over our planetary world community responsibility. <br />Times wasting & it's later than we think. <br /><br />Christopher~ Glad you are not buried in the blizzard. <br />Palin is an idiot.... I won't devote any time discussing her head in the sand theories. <br />But if she attempts to run for pres.... we will have to unite to take her out of any election proceedings... but chances are she will induce her own demise w some stupid move-- that seems to be the pattern so far.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-24535885911967802042009-12-21T05:47:43.519-08:002009-12-21T05:47:43.519-08:00Fran,

But it's cold and miserable and I can't wait to get back to California once and for all.<br /><br />I only mentioned Palin because her people keep updating her Facebook and Twitter account to post "her thoughts" on the issue of climate change and the comments could be written by any oil company executive or, Bible thumper. On her Facebook account (the source for the Washington Post column -- puke) she allegedly wrote that Obama's efforts in Copenhagen were a "crime against humanity."<br /><br />Of course, this is from a moron who wants to turn the Arctic tundra into Saudi Arabia to drill for oil.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15788931352232874850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-27761583374376784672009-12-20T20:39:24.730-08:002009-12-20T20:39:24.730-08:00That stalling and decrying the science worked for ...That stalling and decrying the science worked for the tobacco industry for years so no wonder the industrial polluters are using the same tactics to stall any meaningful action. Our government should be ashamed of itself for catering to these short term interests and making money rather than our long term best interests as a human community.<br /><br />Obama has let this nation down by not leading on this topic and on health care as well as by expanding the war. He is not a liberal at all in my view and I am very disappointed in him.Life As I Know It Nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03733963455243806298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-50229368677266402352009-12-20T19:41:04.489-08:002009-12-20T19:41:04.489-08:00Christopher~ I'm wondering if you are buried i...Christopher~ I'm wondering if you are buried in snow where you are?<br /><br />Of course there is natural climate change, but there was solid science from many years ago that proved human's impact on the planet. All along those polluting profit maker's threw monkey wrenches in the "science of it".... the strategy has been to question the science & stall. <br /><br />You can see the pollution plumes from space, it's that thick, and totally irresponsible of the biggest consumers to not make solid commitments. <br /><br />The notion of Palin as a voice for the environment? The woman has a polar bear carcass (pelt) on her couch for decoration. <br />Please! Her campaign motto was Drill Baby Drill... which equals Kill Baby Kill.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-49845826572368939742009-12-20T15:31:04.432-08:002009-12-20T15:31:04.432-08:00I'm no expert on global warming, or climate ch...I'm no expert on global warming, or climate change, but while people on both sides of the political aisle argue about the cause(s), only a genuine kook like Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck or Rush, can deny it's happening.<br /><br />I've seen satellite pictures taken of the Arctic Circle from 1979, to 1989, to 1999, and finally, 2009, and the fact is, the ice is vanishing. <br /><br />No wonder the Maldive Islands off the shore of India are disappearing under the waters of the Indian Ocean. An American Indian tribe in Louisiana (I can't remember their name, I'm sorry) who have lived off the Louisiana crescent for thousands of years are relocating inland to Baton Rouge because their land is now submerged from rising waters of the Gulf of Mexico.<br /><br />Whether these changes are natural and cyclical, or from greenhouse gases heating the planet, is a largely specious and meaningless discussion are at this moment in humanity's history. Something is changing and it doesn't bode well for our survival if we don't act.Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15788931352232874850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-91473077686109339222009-12-20T10:29:30.252-08:002009-12-20T10:29:30.252-08:00DK ~ You asked "I wonder what those who don&#...DK ~ You asked "I wonder what those who don't believe in climate change would think if it did."<br /><br />Answer: They would blame Barack Obama & the "Liberal's".<br /><br />I added a new photo today... the snow covered microphone set up for the post Copenhagen Climate change comments. <br /><br />Or should I say Cl-Cl-Cl- Climate change... freezing ass cold weather in a major blizzard.<br /><br />No Cl-Cl-Cl- Climate change here!<br />Business as usual!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14198689517878201943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3882537619389851611.post-81662112209982213142009-12-19T22:36:24.038-08:002009-12-19T22:36:24.038-08:00I just noticed the world-in-flames-in-hand is faci...I just noticed the world-in-flames-in-hand is facing the wrong way!
