Seal of disapproval - TelegraphThe mighty bandwagon of global warming, groaning under its burden of the great and the good, has already produced its share of vanities and ironies to raise a wry smile. For instance, the discovery that Dr Rajendra Pachauri, egregious chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, is very much an idol with feet of clay – or rather with enormous footprints of carbon.
But the gathering of G7 finance ministers in Iqaluit, a city of scarce 7,000 souls in the frozen Canadian province of Nunavut, brings a new level of comedy to the struggle to save the planet. The image of an appalled Alastair Darling being served a slice of fine raw seal, in the best tradition of Arctic hospitality, is priceless. Or would have been, had he not uninvited himself from this honorary dinner. The Inuit name of Iqaluit means a place of much fish, apparently. Much chickens, more like.
Global warming con artistsThe global warming cult lied about tree ring data, lied about the Himalayan glaciers melting, lied about declining polar bear populations, lied about the Netherlands being half under sea level, lied about global temperatures declining, and lied about the threat and cause of climate change.
Yet Obama clings to this global warming fantasy. He doesn't even question it. He insists on spending billions immediately and trillions in the future to handle this "crisis".
Sarah Palin was criticized when she "questioned" global warming, its causes and its consequences. The media made her sound stupid. A stupid person is someone who doesn't question things. Obama accepts whatever he is told as fact. The trillions of dollars he is spending on this fraud is costing America money, jobs, industries and lives.
Use Religious Leaders for Climate Change Awareness: Nobel LaureateNew Delhi, Feb 7 – Countries should take help from religious leaders to create mass understanding about global warming and thus help curb it, according to Wangari Maathai, Nobel laureate from Kenya.
‘We should solicit the support of religious groups,’ Maathai, a 2004 Nobel peace prize winner said late Saturday at the Delhi Sustainable and Development Summit here.
‘The religious groups and leaders can play a major role (in persuading people). The approach should be bottom up to tackle the climate threat,’ she said.
Cold took heavy toll on wildlife, but most will recover - South Florida - MiamiHerald.comDespite four decades of slogging through Everglades marshes and mangroves, wildlife ecologist Frank Mazzotti had never experienced anything like the aftermath of frigid January. The confirmed casualty count so far:
• At least 70 dead crocodiles.
• More than 60 manatee carcasses.
• A bright-side observance of multiple frozen-stiff Burmese pythons, the scourge of the Everglades.
And also, perhaps the biggest fish kill in modern Florida history.
``What we witnessed was a major ecological disturbance event equal to a fire or a hurricane,'' said Mazzotti, a University of Florida associate professor. ``A lot of things have happened that nobody has seen before in Florida.''
The cold was simply brutal on many tropical plants and animals.
If a *heat* wave killed this many animals and plants, how would the mainstream media react?
