Microsoft Offers Climate Change Tools -- InformationWeek
Microsoft has introduced two new tools designed to help individuals understand the climate debate and manage their carbon footprints.

The Environmental Atlas of Europe is "a digital platform for educating citizens about climate change," Microsoft said. Meanwhile, the company's new Bend The Trend app is "an online global program that helps people make pledges to reduce their carbon emissions."
U.S. snubs Canada [over photo-op with alarmist Steven Chu]
I showed up there and noticed Steve Kelly, Prentice's chief of staff, having a raised voice exchange with a member from the U.S. delegation. The problem was the U.S. delegation hadn't given the green light for a photo-op, just for closed bilateral meeting between the two.

Over the course of 10 minutes, Kelly repeatedly asked the U.S. delegation official to reconsider, to which the U.S. delegation official replied, negative. When Kelly asked for this to be taken up the chain of command, the U.S. delegation official replied "it came from pretty high up. It's not going to happen."

“It was truly shocking to arrive at a climate action rally in Copenhagen and literally see a sea of red flags and banners with hammers and sickles,” says CFACT President David Rothbard. “I don’t believe most environmentalists are secretly communists, but it interesting to see that many communists believe the green agenda is the best path toward socialist policies.”

The Yes Men - or somebody suspiciously like them have struck again and this time the victim was Canada.

And who better? The Canadians have emerged as the villain of the climate change negotiations for pumping out greenhouse gas emissions with the full-on exploitation of the Alberta tar sands.

While economies grow, social justice is unnecessary, as lives can be improved without redistribution.
