Will this group win the next Nobel Peace Prize?: Marc Morano’s Pack Of Climate Realists

Many in the Morano gang are funded by right-wing think tanks, though a few are committed activists, conspiracy theorists who believe their homebrew interpretations of climate data. Others are aging scientists with strong conservative beliefs, motivating them to challenge action on global warming not because they disbelieve its existence, but because they are ideologically opposed to regulation of pollution...

Energy-efficient bulbs increase greenhouse gases: BC Hydro

...in a recent filing to the B.C. Utilities Commission, Hydro states that widespread adoption of CFLs will have unintended consequences for the environment.

That's because conventional incandescent light bulbs throw off a significant amount of heat, in addition to lighting a room, because they are inefficient users of electricity.

Switch to cool-burning fluorescents and you use less power -- but your house is bit colder so you turn up the thermostat to compensate.

If you live in a house with a gas furnace, you're going to burn more fuel -- and cause more greenhouse gas (GHG) to be emitted into the atmosphere.

Globetrotting Frenchman allegedly cares about trace amounts of CO2 now: Alain Robert Scales Hong Kong Skyscraper Barehanded To Protest Global Warming

HONG KONG — A French daredevil scaled a 73-story Hong Kong skyscraper barehanded Tuesday, his latest attempt to draw attention to global warming by climbing up the world's tallest buildings.

Alain Robert, dubbed the French spider-man, has scaled dozens of tall structures without ropes or harnesses, including the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Empire State Building in New York and Malaysia's Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur.

Alain Robert: Information from Answers.com

It has become more frequent for Robert to be paid to scale buildings as part of publicity efforts. In May 2003 he was paid approximately $18,000 to climb the 95 metres (312 ft) Lloyd's of London to promote the premiere of the movie Spider-Man on the British television channel Sky Movies.

On October 19, 2004, he scaled the 187 metres (614 ft) headquarters of the French oil company Total while wearing a Spider-Man costume.

Robert scaled Taipei 101 on December 25, 2004, a few days before its grand opening as the tallest building in the world. The 508 metres (1,667 ft) climb was legal, part of the week's festivities. The skyscraper's outwardly slanting sides posed no apparent difficulty for him, but heavy rains in Taiwan resulted in a climb lasting four hours--double his estimate.[1]
