Dominic Lawson: Kyoto is worthless (and you don’t have to be a sceptic to believe that now)

The EU has managed to claim success while increasing emissions by 13 per cent

Tuesday, 9 December 2008

EXCERPT:

Seldom has a politician’s call to action been so rapidly answered. Mr Ed Miliband gives a newspaper interview in which he demands “popular mobilisation” to force the world’s governments to push through an agreement to limit carbon emissions. Within hours, members of the Plane Stupid campaign occupy the runway at Stansted Airport, causing arriving planes to circle for hours before being diverted. Well done, Ed!

In fact the Secretary of State for the Environment’s demand for a “countervailing force” to be applied to the carbon foot-draggers was anticipated: last week, “climate protesters” broke into one of Britain’s biggest power stations, managing to cut almost two per cent of the nation’s power supplies. I imagine that the Secretary of State for Energy will be having stern words with Ed Miliband. This, though, would mean Mr Miliband shouting at himself, like a lunatic on a street-corner, since he is the Secretary of State for Energy, as well. Who says we don’t have joined-up government?

    Kyoto is worthless???? Not to the Al Gores, Jim Hansons, the carbon traders, the AGW alarmists, various political, environmental and general “joiners” surrounding this scam. Millions (more like billions) of dollars will change hands before science is brought back to the whole mess. Hopefully the next coming (of science)
    will be sooner rather than later.

    The reputation of climate science has been badly damaged by Al Gore,James Hansen,Carbon traders,AGW believers, Politicians, Environmentalists along with the usual cadre of ignorant followers.

    Yet is not hard to determine if we are being manipulated.Just an hour of studying would quickly show how worthless climate treaties are.

    That is why skeptical blogs/forums exist.To help people to protect themselves from the propaganda that has been showered on us by the enabling media.

    Those ignorant followers are the people I commonly deal with in various forums.To try opening their eyes to the misleading lies and distortions they read or hear about.Unfortunately some of them are ignorantly stupid.
