Fiona Kobusingye : Africa’s real climate crisis - Townhall.com
The average African life span is lower than it was in the United States and Europe 100 years ago. But Africans are being told we shouldn’t develop, or have electricity or cars because, now that those countries are rich beyond anything Africans can imagine, they’re worried about global warming.

Al Gore and UN climate boss Yvo de Boer tell us the world needs to go on an energy diet. Well, I have news for them. Africans are already on an energy diet. We’re starving!

Al Gore uses more electricity in a week than 28 million Ugandans together use in a year. And those anti-electricity policies are keeping us impoverished.

This climate-change nonsense will dwarf the ethanol boondoggle occurring in Iowa. The ethanol story is basically this: We are only about five years from making ethanol a viable product. Problem is, they have been telling the same story for over 20 years. Sounds like the global-warming stories.

The Chicago-style strong-arm tactics pushing this through the House late on that Friday were certainly not the transparent, bipartisan, 48 hours of Internet posting of important legislation, no earmarks, etc. - changes that President Barack Obama preached to us - and it's just like the methods used to pass the stimulus and budget bills.
