Moby on Stage: Wanna Talk About Climate Change But Ignore Meat? It's Like Talking About Lung Cancer But Ignoring Cigarettes : Planet Green

Moby made sure to emphasize the need to address animal production in the global conversation about climate change. He recounted a conversation with Al Gore in which Moby asked why meat and dairy consumption aren't being talked about: Gore [a meat eater] responded that it's just too inconvenient a truth for most people. But omitting the role of animals raised for food from efforts to address climate change is, said Moby, "like talking about lung cancer without talking about cigarettes."

Answering questions like "What is precious about our world?", and "Why is it worth saving?", the messages will be delivered to world leaders at the climate summit.

How to save America

The United States is on the brink of signing a new climate change treaty that many people believe will be the mechanism that ushers in global governance. Global governance has been under construction for many years. Every new treaty in which the United States participates requires the surrender of a little more sovereignty.

[First green president to embark on yet another lengthy fossil-fueled trip]: China climate talks centre stage for Obama trip

US PRESIDENT Barack Obama will use his first trip to Asia next week to underscore the United States' engagement in the region, and to redouble efforts to find common ground with China on a new climate change treaty.

The assistant secretary of East Asia and Pacific Affairs, Kurt Campbell, told The Age that Mr Obama had decided to undertake an extended 10-day visit to Japan, Singapore, China and South Korea despite his pressing domestic agenda.

''In many respects President Obama is our first Pacific president - not only was he raised and schooled for many years in Indonesia but he grew up for most of his life in Hawaii, so he has a keen and deep understanding of Asia,'' he said.

Lisa Heinzerling: Bringing Good Things to Death

Are their cases of environmental pollution that are so egregious that the polluters should be punished as murderers?

Absolutely, says Obama EPA Administrator Lisa Heinzerling. And she is willing to wipe out half of the world’s population to prove her point. Given her way, she would turn into murderers every manufacturer in America who had any inkling of an idea ahead of time that their actions had even the remotest statistical chance of causing a pollution-related death. And she is determined to give her view the force of law.

After being elected president, Obama appointed Carol Browner as director of the White House Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy. Formerly, Browner was a leader in the Commission for a Sustainable World Society, a group that calls for “global governance.” It is an arm of the Socialist International organization.

And, of course, there is Van Jones. The president brought him into the White House to be the green jobs czar. Unfortunately, Jones has a radical-left resume that includes support for the convicted cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal. He was forced to resign when the folks found out exactly how far out there the man really is.
...
But it is important to understand the precincts in which the president feels comfortable, and there is no question that he has snuggled up to the far left.

Does that mean he’s Che Guevara in disguise? Not necessarily. But it does mean Obama is somewhat out of step with mainstream America.
