American Thinker Blog: Another global warming ripoff

A portion of this settlement will certainly go to the "public interest" groups which brought this litigation, insuring they will continue to press for damages for "global warming".

Real money being paid out on account of make believe science where the real agenda is to force the end of fossil fuels, the only reliable source of energy in the face of the environmentalists' destruction of the nuclear power industry.

Public radio: It's all about political correctness and CO2 hysteria - Living on Earth: Gender and Climate Change

GELLERMAN: It's Living on Earth, I'm Bruce Gellerman.

Climate change is going to affect everyone, but not everyone is going to be affected equally. Women and the poor will suffer most as the intensity of hurricanes, floods, and droughts increases.

GELLERMAN: Well give me some examples. How is disruption of the climate a gender issue?

AGUILAR:... So many, many elements that when disaster strikes associated with climate change they're severely being affected.

GELLERMAN: Here in the United States we had Hurricane Katrina.

AGUILAR: Mmhmm.

GELLERMAN: Did gender play a role in the response or the effect of that hurricane here in the United States, a rich country?

AGUILAR: It did, especially in poor, Afro-American women the effect was a lot, lot harder and bigger than in other communities. They didn't have access to mobility to get away from the areas, they didn't know what to do, they hadn't participated in a lot of these processes, and also to recuperate for single mothers, for example, after Katrina has been extremely more difficult than other people in that area.

GELLERMAN: So in essence what you're seeing is that climate change magnifies the inequalities that exist now.

AGUILAR: Yes, and at the same time, the inequalities magnify the effects of climate change. So it's a two-way road in this respect.
