California Teamsters oppose effort to delay global warming [hoax] measure - Los Angeles Times

"We must reject efforts to move backwards on protection of the environment," said Randy Cammack, co-chairman of the Teamsters Public Affairs Council, which unanimously agreed to oppose the measure Friday. "Our members are citizens and neighbors as well as workers. We breathe the same air, drink the same water and live on the same planet with every other human being. …There is no inconsistency between protecting our environment and building a strong and vibrant economy."

The trucking industry sees it differently. The California Trucking Assn. last week endorsed the measure, which proponents are calling the California Jobs Initiative.

Reply to article from Norm Kalmanovitch: CO2 buildup turning ocean water acidic by Deborah Zaba Renko | Climate Realists

In all cases, sea water is saturated in CO2, but as sea water is basic, any acidity changes due to CO2 really have no effect because of the overwhelming predominance of dissolved salts that make sea water basic. People are entitled to their opinions, but they are not entitled to misrepresent fact as has continually been done promoting the scientifically baseless human-caused global warming issue.

Fallout from ETS dumping continues | Australian Climate Madness

The whole landscape has shifted, and the climate debate in Australia has changed overnight. Climate change as a political issue is off the agenda, and it will sink down in public consciousness again, only emerging briefly when there is some pointless UN gabfest on (like Mexico at the end of the year). Nobody really cares, as more and more people (including politicians) realise that there are more urgent and pressing things to worry about, like huge oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico, massive eruptions of volcanoes in Iceland that cripple air transport for days, economic crises that threaten to tear apart the EU… the list goes on.
