EU Referendum: Amazongate II - Seeing REDD

The WWF and other green campaign groups talking up the destruction of the Amazon rainforests are among those who stand to make billions of dollars from the scare. This "green gold-rush" involves taking control of huge tracts of rainforest supposedly to stop them being chopped down, and selling carbon credits gained from carbon dioxide emissions they claim will be "saved".

Backed by a $30 million grant from the World Bank, the WWF has already partnered in a pilot scheme to manage 20 million acres in Brazil. If their plans get the go-ahead in Mexico at the end of the year, the forests will be worth over $60 billion in "carbon credits", paid for by consumers in "rich" countries through their electricity bills and in increased prices for goods and services.

Top climate [hoax] officials urge progress at Mexico summit

De Boer urged progress in the follow-up summit to Copenhagen, to be held in Cancun in November.

He said funding for the fight against climate change would be a major hurdle to address, and warned that a proposed 100-billion-dollar fund to help developing nations tackle global warming would be difficult to fund solely through contributions from rich nations.

"There's a large perception, especially in the developing world, that the entire 100 billion, it's going to come from public financing. I think that extremely unlikely, I don't see industrialized countries... mobilizing another 100 billion a year for climate change," he said.

Union of Concerned Scientists Declaration: Rebuttal By Ed Berry—Stand Up America US

Some 2000 scientists signed the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) declaration calling for “swift and deep cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.”
...
...we challenge you signers of the UCS declaration to appear at the International Conference on Climate Change in Chicago on May 16-18, to defend your quaint climate beliefs in the presence of the world’s best climate scientists.

Should you not appear at this conference, the whole world will know that your signatures are valueless and that no one, especially your students, should put any credibility on your climate declarations.

Until you convince the many scientists who completely disagree with you, you do not have an ethical right to proclaim to your students or the public that your climate beliefs are supported by science.
