Ed Miliband Still Peddling Climate Change Snake Oil « Tory Aardvark

The wealth redistribution scheme surfaces again, we should take care of our own first, we have homeless ex-service people and as a result of the last Labour government more children in poverty than 20 years ago, these should be our first priority, not stuffing the Swiss bank accounts of third world dictators.

Thirdly, the government should be pushing the EU to commit to a second period of the Kyoto protocol, which enshrines developed countries’ responsibility to cut their emissions first and fastest. This would send an important signal to developing countries The Guardian

This last statement demonstrates just how dangerous, or is it stupid, that Ed Miliband the Climate Change Nut is, Miliband is making statements like this in the same week that the EU backed away from the Kyoto stupidity.

Warming could turn Interior into prairie, UAF scientist says: Climate change | adn.com

Rich Boone, an ecosystem ecologist at the College of Natural Science and Mathematics, used the climate around Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, as an example of what might be in store for Alaska's Interior, the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported.

Fairbanks faces a roughly 11-degree temperature increase by 2100 if moderate climate-change models are used, Boone said during a talk Wednesday.

If that happens, the Interior no longer will be characterized by permafrost and boreal forests, he said.

"That's very realistic," Boone said. "We'd be in a zone that would potentially be prairie."

"The fact is, the stuff we've pumped into the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution is going to continue to have a warming effect for thousands of years," Boone said.
