AFP: Kerry insists US will move on climate

Kerry recommended Michael Nash's documentary "Climate Refugees," which was screened out of competition at last month's Sundance Film Festival. The movie looks at humans displaced by disasters arising from ecological changes.

"There's a movie out called 'Climate Refugees,' which you need to see, because they're going to be millions of them -- tens of millions of them -- as we go forward."

Moonbattery: Obama's "Church of the Unholy Climate Change" Violates First Amendment

Anyone who still clings to the final straws of the AGW myth is a fool. Luckily there is a fool's church just for such folk. Unfortunately, it is supported by the rest of us taxpayers.  [Note the picture of Al Gore with his 10 commandments.]

The petition mailing included a Wall Street Journal op-ed that said we have an ethical responsibility to burn as much fossil fuel as possible to get carbon out of the ground and into the air where it can create life.

it was no Daniel Ellsberg who hacked the climate-gate files. The unauthorized release of e- mail files from a climate unit at the University of East Anglia had no such high-minded purpose. It has the smell of goons hired by an Exxon or a Peabody Coal.

Off course it can. If global warming is anthropogenic, and I feel certain that it is, it should be seen as a demonstration that humans already exert control over the climate. We need only to reverse the sign. Two things can do it: 1) increase efficiency and 2) decrease the number of "warming centers" (i.e. reduce the number of people on Earth). Number 1) should be a crash program, since efficiency pays for itself over time. Human population reduction on the other hand, must be very gradual to retain a voting majority. All subsidies for fecundity, such as tax deductions for dependents, should be eliminated.

I hope this will be the last time I mention the pilfered e-mails from the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia. The Nature editorial "Climate of suspicion" in the January 21 issue should be read by scientists in every field of research. The most important contribution of science to the world may be to demonstrate the power of openness in the advance of knowledge. We cannot allow ourselves to be intimidated by a small band of deniers into discussing hugely-important issues in private. We must openly communicate with one another and learn how to bring the public along on the adventure.
