[Great quote by global warming fraud promoter Gavin A. Schmidt] - NYTimes.com
“If you ask a scientist how much more CO2 do you think we should add to the atmosphere, the answer is going to be none.”
Althouse: "President Obama will almost certainly not travel to the Copenhagen climate change summit in December..."
Anyway, how can there be a big climate change conference that everyone must fly to? If the situation is really so dire, why don't they video-conference? How big is the carbon footprint of a presidential overseas trip — or a presidential trip anywhere? Honestly, the man is set up to do his job in the White House, and he's well protected there: Why does he ever leave that place? Ditto for all the other world leaders. Why are we supposed to cut back when they do not?

COPENHAGEN, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) -- Over 100 legislators from major economies across the world agreed here on Sunday to key legislation principles on curbing climate change.

The principles, set out by Wang Guangtao, chairman of the committee for environmental and resources protection of China's National People's Congress (NPC), and U.S. congressman Edward Markey, are aimed to enact climate change legislation in the major economies.
Too much heat can affect the brain
He explained that even though the body could absorb some heat, the required body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius, when the body temperature rises above 40 degrees Celsius there was cause for concern.

He was speaking at workshop organized by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on the theme: "Integrating Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation in Development Planning."
Temperature Regulation - Mammalian Temperature Regulation
All mammals are endothermic—they maintain and regulate their own body temperature. Living in widespread environments around the world, mammals face daily and seasonal fluctuations in temperatures and some—for example those living in harsh arctic or tropical habitats—face extreme cold or heat. To maintain their correct body temperature, mammals must be able to produce and conserve body heat in colder temperatures as well as dissipate exess body heat in warmer temperatures.
