On behalf of Canada...we're sorry, Copenhagen.

We know our prime minister is an asshole. He's a small-minded, petty
individual who's under investigation for trying to bribe an MP. He
hides out from the media, makes an ass of himself on the world stage,
practices American-style attack politics, and doesn't really give a
damn about our country except for Alberta. Most of us pray to God
every night that he never gets a majority government, because if he
does he will make George Bush look like a rank amateur in the fine art
of wrecking a country.

Unfortunately, as many of you know, in a parliamentary democracy it is
quite possible for a prick to become Prime Minister even though 2/3 of
the country think he's a jerk. And it doesn't help that our chief
opposition party can't seem to find a leader with a spine.

Also, although the leader of our third party does have a spine, he
doesn't have the votes. Because they're being split by a party of
tree-huggers whose sole accomplishment has been to get Conservatives
elected. And then of course, there's a bunch of separatist whiners
who aren't interested in doing anything but wrecking the country - on
purpose.

In short, of our two main opposition parties, one has the votes but
not the spine, and the other has the spine but no votes.

Most Canadians know that global warming is real and caused by human
activity. We hate that our PM is trying to sabotage the process of
finding a solution, so his friends in Alberta can keep driving around
in their gas-guzzling Hummers and SUVs. But he's managed to convince
one-third of Canadians that he's the lesser of two evils, so we're
stuck with him.

So once again, Copenhagen...we're sorry. If it's any consolation,
there's an election due before long, and we'd be just as happy as you
to be finally rid of the jerk. Keep your fingers crossed.

And it will make Canada the center of global food production as the US bread

But it in fact is doing no damage at all. 1938, and 1940 were the coldest
years in history, and the glaciers melted faster in 1040 then now.

Well the Innuit had to incorporate three new words into their
vocabulary. Robin, chickadee and bumblebee! Yes that's right!
They have never seen these creatures before in their lives. Why would
these criiters migrate so far up to the Innuit lands, just so they
could get a name? Are they "Lefty Liars" What say you? As your mentor,
O'Reilly says? The Arctic tundra is melting! Oh its mushy now and the
natives also have never seen that before! What a bunch of liars huh?
That tundra has trillions of tonnes of "methane" gas. And that stuff
is ten times more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas. Yeah, but
you're right, theys all lyin' varmits! I'll rely on your sources which
are? You have to have more evidence to be a skeptic other than your
visceral "evidence". Oh, by the way, the polar bears are getting
smaller and lazier because they drown now trying to reach multilayer
ice. You do know from your evidence what multilayer ice is,
comprendez? What name would you give the robins if you could name
them?
I'd probably just tell the Innuits to name them all one name...

It could actually get a lot colder in parts of Canada. The ocean
currents that bring warm water north are already showing signs of
change. Those oceanic conveyor belts are a huge influence on northern
climate. Parts of Europe could get a lot colder as well.

And if you are like me I enjoy winter. I like the fact that I can bike
or walk to the local hill and ski and board. I haven't been able to for
the last 20 years, except for last winter... a real La Nina year for
those close to the Pacific.

My pine forests are also gone, 13 million hecares of them. Killed off
because the vermin that like to eat the soft parts of trees thrive when
the winters are warm.

Rightists don't need science, that's why most of them aren't scientists.
They believe that AGW is a big socialist conspiracy, most of them say that
it's a bigger conspiracy than the big Obama birth certificate cover up and
how the Apollo 11 landing was faked to distract the world from Ted
Kennedy's chappiquiddic accident.

Karl Rove once said that the more education people have, the less likely
they will be candidates for voting Republican. That's why many of them
are creationists and think that you can get AIDS from a toilet seat. Some
even believe that petroleum comes from rocks, and in the old days (6,000
years ago), man saddled up dinosaurs and used them as beasts of burden.

"Only Six Percent Of Scientists Are Republicans: Pew Poll

A new study by the Pew Research Center finds that the GOP is
alienating scientists to a startling degree.

Only six percent of America's scientists identify themselves as
Republicans; fifty-five percent call themselves Democrats. By
comparison, 23 percent of the overall public considers itself
Republican, while 35 percent say they're Democrats.

The ideological discrepancies were similar. Nine percent of scientists
said they were "conservative" while 52 percent described themselves as
"liberal," and 14 percent "very liberal." The corresponding figures
for the general public were 37, 20 and 5 percent.

Among the general public, moderates and independents ranked higher
than any party or ideology. But among scientists, there were
considerably more Democrats (55%) than independents (32%) and
Republicans (6%) put together. There were also more liberals (52%)
than moderates (35%) and conservatives (9%) combined.

"These results were not a complete surprise," said Scott Keeter,
Director of Survey Research at Pew, in an interview with the
Huffington Post. He said they can be mostly attributed to "the
difference between Democratic and Republican parties with respect to
issues."

The wide ideological and partisan gap among scientists may have been
exacerbated by the Bush administration, which often disputed broad
scientific consensus on topics such as evolution and climate change.

Keeter acknowledged this factor, but said that "many of these disputes
probably predate the Bush administration," noting that scientists have
favored liberal views in numerous past studies.

Religion also plays a role. Republicans tend to promote the centrality
of religion more often than Democrats, and while 95 percent of the
public said they believe in "God" or "a higher power," only 51 percent
of scientists claimed either.

"Many Republicans, especially the Evangelical wing of the party, are
skeptical of evolution, and have argued for the teaching of
creationism and intelligent design in school," said Keeter.

The results could merely be a reflection of how scientists see the
world, rather than of partisan loyalties. In a series of questions
posed, the study found that the answers of scientists were
consistently more in line with liberal viewpoints than those of the
general public.

"The Republican Party has a number of leaders within it who have
challenged the accuracy of scientific findings on issues such as
climate change, evolution and stem cell research," Keeter told the
Huffington Post.

"It suggests that scientists who are Republicans might feel some
dissonance from the party's position on some things that are important
to them. And while there are Republicans in the scientist sample,
there are really not that many," he said."

Do you think you can just plop oranges onto land previously growing
wheat? It takes years, perhaps decades to determine what grows well
on what land. Meanwhile, the US bread basket will be struggling under
increased drought.

That's what happens on a living evolving planet. Embrace climate

Nobody is denying that climate change isn't a cyclical and natural
phenomena. What some people are objecting to is contributing to the
severity of it. We do a lot of things to make our environment more
stable, damming rivers would be a good example. Are you saying we
shouldn't dam rivers because flooding is natural and cyclical? That's
the logic you are using here.

Scaling back the state and protecting key industries aren't "wrecking
a country". Wrecking a country is placing it under the control of a
multi-national gang of central planning freaks who are using fear
tactics to get people to give up their freedom to decide how to live
their lives.

The issue isn't skeletal. It's one of credibility, or rather lack
thereof. The Liberals believe in making the "right noises", but not
following through. At least the Conservatives are willing to openly
defy the fearmongering AGW mob and their junk science.

Of course, Canada would have never even shown up at Copenhagen or
signed on to Kyoto years back if the oil had been under the feet of
Quebecers instead of Albertans. There wouldn't have been a National
Energy Program back in the 70's either.

> So once again, Copenhagen...we're sorry.

Canada has nothing to apologize for. We are defending our right to
develop our resources. It's people like the Internet-inventor and the
CBC science guy who should be apologizing for getting everyone so
scared. We also deserve an apology from those scientists who chose
using "tricks" to fudge the data over admitting that they don't know
what the hell they're talking about. And finally, we deserve an
apology from the left-of-centre politicians and bureaucrats who saw
this so-called "crisis" as their last shot at getting us to accept
statist central planning.

1) If it wasn't for "climate change" aka "global warming" Canada would
still be under a mile or more of ice
2) The planet has also been quite a bit warmer than it is now

The stupid luddite greens are dumb enough to belive that this planet should
remain at a constant temperature level, and that if the damn thing dares to
diverge from that, then clearly it's the fault of the humans.
Too bad that there is ample evidence that this planet has been much
colder and much warmer in the past, when humans weren't around

I live in an area that at the edge of the glacier movement at the end of
the last ice age. Glaciers have been retreating north (and south) for
thousands of years. Personally, I am not witnessing global warming. In
fact, last summer was the coolest one I can remember in my entire life.
I have not used my air conditioner for three years.

No evidence exists of that at all. For each beach sinking, I can come
up with a beach a rising.

If anything, some studies consclusively state the ocean will retreat if
global warming is in fact true. Citing the following:

- warm air holds billions of tons of water, fridged cold air holds near
zero.
- water in clouds rain on places like NWT causing more vegitation which
soaks up more water in plant life and higher water tables.
- water as it thaws shrinks in volume releasing trapped gases as well.
- equatorial regions will not heat up as much as polar regions as the
cooling effects of evaporation.

Thus, green farce, as we could use the NWT to feed the real problem of
CO2, more humans, especially in places like Africa, Hindu and Muslim
countries with population growth out of control.

Greenies are knobs. Sort of like a solution looking for a problem that
does not exist.

Pine beetles #1 killer is forest fires as it removes the dry wood
breading ground they spawn in. Extra cold winters only works for a few
weeks as the critters have more breading space after cold winters damage

Forest fires in old dry forests is a natural event man prevents for $$$.

Warmer is better, Toronto under 3km of ice, raries under km of ice does
not sound like Canada will be habitable at all. For this reason, junk
scientiest fruit fly specialists should be so fired, and replaced with
ahrd core, open to the public pure scientific research to determin which
is in fact true. There is very serious evidence of cooling in the last
50 to 100 years.

People who fear warming are nuts, if Canada was like Costa Rica, I sure
would not complain. But if Canada was under 1km of ice, I would be
certainly dead as would all Caandians.

I am enjoying it immensly. The defunct liberal-debtors running
government made an excellent buying/market opportunity with this
unstability. And realists all over are cashing in as we saw it
coming.... I used to be happy with 8% year over year return, closing
2009 as a banner year about 4 times that.

Much more than I lost in 2008...as in April 2008 I went cash high
because governmetns were ignoring the debt crisis. In fact, one could
argue they caused it deliberately.

Always think like a cynic with government and investing.

Vancouver was under a heap of snow a few years back.

Manchester UK has the same latitude as Edmonton, but is much warmer

You are completely clueless as to how a glacier works, aren't you?

A glacier MOVES, dumbass. You get accumulation at one end, and
melting on the other. The glacier moves from the point of
accumulation to the end, where it melts. Whether the glacier is
advancing or retreating, the ice is only going to be as old as the
time it takes for it to get from the head to the foot.

That and the cyclical nature of dust storms. The fact is, none of the
"warming" on any of the planets observed has to do with solar
radiation.

What's more, if the sun WERE getting warmer, the effects would be
easily measurable on the moon. There's no atmosphere, no weather, no
other real heat source, and a rise in temperature would be easy to
detect.

So if the sun were getting warmer, the moon would be getting warmer.

I wonder how he thinks the Finger Lakes of Western New York State were

Some of them think that snow means cold. As in Antarctica when there
is snow reported.

They can't grasp that it means that it's actually warming.

Anyone who skis alpine knows that it only snows on the warmest of
days, not the coldest.

To them, there is no difference between the idea of ice covering the
Arctic that's permanent, and ice that is seasonal.

They say that the polar bear population has risen since the 1970's,
but forget that it was because there were more restrictions on hunting
polar bears following the 1970's, when they were almost hunted to
extinction in some places. So the population grew in those areas once
restrictions were imposed.

It's always a "1 dimensional" approach. Science takes into account
the factors and the reasons why.

And those who tend to take the "1 dimensional approach", often refer
to themselves as "realists" "common sense"

I used to live on Mission Creek up towards Rutland, moved away to
another parts a couple of years ago, but not too far. Speaking of
beetle, I am now the proud owner of 160 acres of dead pine. It was
mature enough to start logging and I would have netted about $4K per
acre. If I had logged the whole property I could have pocketed (before
taxes of course) well over $500K... easily. I was going to leave most
of it for wildlife, selectively cut a few loads here and there every
year, not level the place, but now it's just so much rotten wood. I can
push trees over with my bare hands, so rotten they just snap at the

invested, along with Russian interests, because once things have
melted, moving goods from Russia will be easier to do through Siberia,
across the Arctic, into Hudson Bay to Churchill, and by rail into the
interior of the USA and even down to Mexico and west to the port of
Vancouver.

All to avoid that pesky St. Lawrence Seaway.

Which proves that Global Warming is for real, and extremely high end

Actually, it might. If all the methane in Russia's permafrost gets
released at once...

Then there's the methyl hydride ices along the continental shelf. If
they were to melt, it would release massive amounts of methane, which
would create a chain reaction and climate change an order of magnitude
more severe than what we're experiencing now. A methyl hydride
release is believed to be what caused the Permian-Triassic extinction
which wiped out 90% of Earth's species.

If you weren't such a moron you would have provided the data to show
that the higher temperatures in summer counter balanced the lower winter
temperatures. All you did to rebut my comment about friends in BC
reporting colder winters was to assume that the hotter summer averaged
out higher than normal. You failed to provide the details that would
prove that there is a trend toward higher averages. It would probably
surprise you to learn that the average temperature varies every year.
Sometimes the average temperature is a little higher and sometimes it is
a little lower. Sometimes it edges up and then slips back down.

No... moron.... you did not provide any proof that this is what has
actually happened. I have seen several sites that indicate that our
average temperature has actually dropped. I have also seen several that
deal with the long term trends in climate, and they often directly
reflect solar and volcanic activity. You should try looking up some of
that stuff instead of just making up claims about average temperature
changes as if you thought you knew what you were talking about and
calling other people morons.

CLIMATE EFFECTS ON MOUNTAIN PINE BEETLE DISTRIBUTION
Over the past decade, British Columbia has not experienced the extreme
cold winter temperatures that curtailed previous outbreaks. Warming in
British Columbia over the twentieth century (to 1995) was approximately
equal to the global average of 0.6�C on the coast (British Columbia
Ministry of Environment, 2002; IPCC, 2001), but two or three times
higher in the interior (Figure 1).

If you want to get a sense of global warming economic activity just
follow insurance industry news. They already consider it a serious
material threat. People like Canuck57 have their heads firmly inserted

Economic activity seems to be what it is mostly about. In the Kyoto deal
the western countries were being expected to make major commitments to
reduce emissions and to give billions to poorer countries, but the major
contributors to the pollution problem were exempted. One thing that we
really don't need to do is to funnel billions of dollars into all those
little countries whose governments as so notoriously corrupt that the
money will only end up in the pockets of the government officials.

You need to take CO2 production into historical content. The developed
nations had a big head start, they started heavy industrialization
before the Chinese had even begun to wade out of rice paddies. Even
though China has overtaken the US in CO2 production, China's historical
output of CO2 is far less. Per capita they STILL only produce 1/4 what
a Canadian or an American does. How do we know this, you ask. Well,
things like oil and coal, almost and commodity, leave paper trails. The
accounting records of buyers and sellers of fossil fuels are quite
comprehensive, and the accounting history goes back to the dawn of
industrialization. If you dump waste into the lake for 10 years, and
your neighbour only 2 years, should he be accountable for half the
cleanup cost? China has a case here, they are being held accountable
for historical pollution they did not produce. The rationale behind
Kyoto recognized this, and the plan was for the industrialized nations
to take the initiative, and then the developing nations could easily be
pressured in compliance with Kyoto II. Would have worked, except the
"unfairness" of it all kaiboshed it, except it wasn't actually unfair.

I don't need to take CO2 production into account other than to know that
the western world started to realize more than 40 years ago that
pollution was a problem. The western world cleaned up its act while
Chine played revolution games, and while we spent a lot of money to stop
polluting and paid workers decent wages, China has enjoyed an economic
boom with cheap wages and a total lack of environmental concern.

They may be using producing less per capita than we are, but there are
more than a billion of them and their production is rapidly increasing.

They are not being expected to clean up our old waste. We have recently
accepted, or been asked to accept that there is a problem, and we have
to reduce our consumption of fossil fuels and stop contributing to the
problem. Bear in mind that China had to shut down its industry to clear
the air for the Olympic games.

I remember the the dirty buildings and air of the 50s when we burned a
lot of cheap coal. We cleaned up our act a long time ago. We developed
and employed the technology to reduce pollution. Now we are shifted
production to places like China, where they can produce goods cheaper
because they don't have to spend the money to operate clean production.

The rationale behind Kyoto was more likely the acceptance that this

I think he means your are full of bullshit.

The average temperature is not up. Certainly not where I live. It was
a noticably cooler sprint, top temperatures hardly happened at all,
certainly the rasperries and straw berrys thought so too as they were a

Study upon study confirms forest fires kill pine beetles far more
effectively. Another eco tax-me-silly BS line.

Reason is simple, freeze kills a few but given their reproductive rate
it is squat as food is pletiful. Destroy their food supply, and they
die by the tonnage. They bread well in old dry timber where the sap is
low and doesn't gue them down.

By interfering with natural forest fires in old growth we leave much
more dry and ideal timber for them to multiply.

It isn't the only way we humans destroy the forest.

Just get the facts straight and don't listen to the bullshit. Trouble
is too many stupid non-scienticic iddiots out there don't think, they
react. Illogicial, none scientific eco BSers being manipulated like

No, your stupidity did.

If you torched it, then let the new growth grow up there would not be a
problem. Trees are like fruit, pick when rip or let the bugs have it.
Trouble is government is tax greedy, companies are cheap and people are
stupid.

If you want trees and forrest harvesting, you have to do a lot more than
what is currently being done. For example, harvest when rip, leave the
brush, tips and all, scatterd. Even leave some real trees. Then torch
it as if hit by lightening and let the ash hit the shole slope. The ash
will help the soil go for another forrest cycle, bugs and beetles gone
as there is no food. It starts as grass and seedlinings, then 50-150
years later more harvestable trees.

There is a reason why McMillian does not want to harvest 50 year old
replants, the growth is stunted, the soil is erroded and tree denisity
sq/lm sucks. Simply putting some summer student to plant 25 cent
seedlings didn't and does not work to this day.

At least you have lots of good firewood!

And a hell of a lot colder before that. And before that, a hell of a
lot warmer. In fact, the most bio diverse and propserious life on the
planet coincides with it's warmer periods. And we are currently on the
colder side of things.

Warming isn't hurting anything, if it is happening as the evidence
suggests a reversal has occured in the last 100 years. It was warmer in
medevil times.

Eco freeks, go back to the sky is falling like a good little pupet. The

Shit for brains, higher altitude it gets colder. And last I checked tre
stumps don't move uphill with glaciers. So be the stump from the
current point of r 5km up the slow/ice flow, doesn't mater at all to my
point.

You just reinforced what I said. LMAO. So even at a higher altitude
and the source of the flow of ice is where it was tropical some little
as 7000 years ago.

7000 years ago, right about when mankind was learning language skills
and firs real civilizations were prospering it was much WARMER than
today. LMAO.

Parts might become shallow lakes with fish that grow in 2 years instead
of 30. Quite a bit will be swamp until the land is cleared. But over
time, it will grow taller trees, more grass for cattle to graise and
some surely would in a warmer environment grow wheat.

Ferns used to grow on the north slop of Alaska at the peek of the
dinosaurs who also roamed the area. The type of ferns found don't grow
where there is snow and frost.

Carbon dating of polar caps in fact indicates most of the ice is rather
new in the historical record of the earth.

So? Methane and CO2 are recyclable by nature and are biproducts of

Probably would except for two points.

First there is no proof that in 10 or 20 years it will be warmer or
colder. They were wrong in 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930...2000 and for the

I am not denying it may be happening.

But some questions I have serious doubts are:

2) Is it so bad? It has happened in recent and distant history that the
earth was signifigantly warmer than today so what is the big deal?
3) Are we fearing something that is actually good for humanity because
most of humanity is too stupid or greedy to understand it?

Funny how these "poorer" countries are the worst offenders. Many with

reported as it is a life style of facism, buchary... Somaia type
countries.

Some are adding 20-30% to their population every year, bringing in 4/5
children into starvation because they can't evolve beyond that of a
sub-rat -- rats even limit their population to food and resources.

The West should tell the greedy extorionistic dictators to shove it

China was mining coal and making steel, bronze etc. long before western
industrialization even got started. Ditto Europe. Oil was even used!

The real problem is when you get 7 billion people doing it as opposed to
100 million. And the 7 billion are multipling at an unsustainable
rate... you will have problems.

If Canada and the US can't get population control top front and center,

And they will never agree. People in Africa will continue to bring into
the world newboarns that will starve because the parents were too stupid
and selfish to practice birth control. At least China has a policy that
is better than anyone elses.

And Canada's birth rate is 1.58 per family. That is a shrinking
population, and why immigration to Canada is so damned easy. In fact an
open door policy with pay to get started.

No one would live in Canada if they couldn't burn carbon to survive.

In many ways, China is ahead of everyone else. That is why they

Simply put, China has a population growth containment strategy when 99%

from cold much faster than a 30C summer day. Especially if they can't
burn carbon.

Nope, just see the stupidity going on and the leaders of the countries
let it happen. And the UN does squat to make it better. Money isn't
the problem, human social evolution, or the lack of it is.

I can't stop it, I am just smart enough to see the irony of it.

If you really want to stem the problem, keep supporting the government.
When they have enough control, just like THX-1038 (??) they will
decide who breads and who does not. Your genetic stock will likely not
be included.

Pretty ugly problem. And not vey many integigent enough to deal with
it. At least China has a policy...far more than 99% of the other countries.

Are you brain dead? I just said there was NO atmosphere. That means
that the ONLY variable in determining the moon's temperature is the
sun. Therefore, if the sun were getting warmer, the moon would be
getting warmer. End of story.

I repeat, you are a retard. As I stated before, the lack of an
atmosphere makes reading MORE reliable, not less.

How stupid are you? Do you think they sent men to the moon without
checking it over with a fine-toothed comb from Earth? They measured
EVERYTHING about it - including the temperature, moron. That's over
fifty years of history. More than enough to measure any rise in
temperature do to increased solar activity.

But there isn't any.

Oh, right, pumping millions of tons of CO2 isn't screwing it up, but
us "eco freaks" are capable of doing something that will. And what

Oh good, then all we have to do is go on a diet for the 40 or 50 years

Alaska was in a completely different location when the dinosaurs were

No they aren't idiot. Methane only lasts 10 years in our atmosphere
before either reacting or escaping into space. CO2 is far more
stable. And it isn't being recycled, otherwise the proportion of CO2
in the atmosphere wouldn't be going UP, retard.

Hey, dipshit. It might have escaped your notice, but we've kind of
got something called a CIVILIZATION here. That requires massive
amounts of agriculture, something the dinosaurs could do without.

And in any case, the issue isn't the amount of CO2 or the
temperature. The issue is the CHANGE in CO2 and the CHANGE in
temperature. Got it now?

Yeah, the junk scientists like Richard Lindzen are hoping for a huge

problem. Only people like you are stupid enough to listen to them.

Which part of "the onus of proof is on you" do you not understand?
We're not going to do your research for you, idiot. It's up to the
guy making the claim to back it up, not his opponents. Show us where
you're getting your bullshit from, or admit that you've been making it
up.

Maybe the end of civilization as we know it, that's all.

Doing nothing is going to cost us four or five times what it would
cost us to fix this thing now. Personally, I'd like to live in a
world with a little better than a 1930's style economy.

Mans propensity to screw with what isn't broke. The worlds ego system

nothing that we can do about global cooling or warming. Our lack of
humility in the universe, we think we can contol what we cannot. Food
