Please do not ratifty Kyoto Protocol

Ahahahhaha........AHAHAHAHHA......this is good what you posted

[Titan Point] <sacastic> No no no! That was the 70s [Ice Age] scare. <sacastic> Now we need to evacuate Miami before it <sacastic> disappears under the rising sea level! I could cite 'The Genesis Strategy', Stephen Schneider, 1976. the entire book and it wouldn't make a difference [to you]. .....the lie that there was no global cooling scare in the 1970s [was] predicted by the same people who now predict global warming including the discredited Lester Brown predicting the megafamines caused by the population/food production crunch.

[David Ball] LOL. Read what the man wrote, Titan. 'A major climatic change WOULD force...' Not WILL, Titan. Would. As in maybe.

[hanson] Yo, my dear cybermutt, mudBall, you may use words of uncertainty like WOULD and MAYBE for now, because TP has cornered you. But in your very next post you will switch back again to your old lies.

TP, do NOT believe what mudBall says, because he, like all greenies, do lie....THAT IS THEIR LIVELY HOOD! Permit charges and user-fees, their income, is generated from and thru their lies.

Please ignore. News reader behaving badly.

Not only is your newreader behaving badly, but you are as

A quick check of 'ISI Web of Science' shows you are about 6 years out of date. There were dozens of successful detections of the AGW signal published about then.

Since as you observe, there was no cooling scare issued by the worlds scientists, (recognizing your earlier lie that threre was) - whom do you now claim 'predicted' this scare that you now admit never existed?

Snicker.

As for the prediction of famines, there have been many and over a hundred million people have died since their prediction.

Fortunately - as a result of predictions such as these, intelligent people - recognizing the threat - created programs and performed research that reduced the magnitude of the death.

More could have been done, but people like Hanson opposed the efforts, and as a result have the blood of the over 100 million who did die, on their

Nothing rational.

Apparently the U.K. Government's chief science advisor doesn't agree with your conservative ignorance James.

Global warming 'biggest threat'

Greenhouse gases stop energy escaping from the Earth's surface Climate change is a far greater threat to the world than international terrorism, the UK Government's chief scientific adviser has said.

Sir David King said the US had failed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

And without immediate action flooding, drought, hunger and debilitating diseases such as malaria would hit millions of people around the world.

US President George Bush says more research is needed before he introduces punitive carbon taxes on industry.

But Sir David criticised the Bush administration for relying too exclusively on market-based incentives and voluntary actions.

He told Science, the 'house magazine' of the US scientific establishment: 'As the world's only remaining superpower, the United States is accustomed to leading internationally co-ordinated action.

'But at present the US Government is failing to take up the challenge of global warming.'

Flood risk

In Britain, the number of people at high risk of flooding was expected to more than double to nearly 3.5 million by 2080, Sir David said.

And damage to properties could run to tens of billions of pounds every year.

Britain was trying to show leadership by cutting energy consumption and increasing the use of renewable sources, Sir David added. But the UK was responsible for only about 2% of the world's emissions while the US, with just 4% of the world's population, produced more than 20%.

The UK was asking the world's developed economies to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 60% of 1990 levels by about 2050, under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC), Sir David said.

Severe problem

But despite declaring support for the UNFCC's objectives, the US had failed to ratify the Kyoto accord for emission reductions and 'refused to countenance any remedial action now or in the future'. The United States is already in the forefront of the science and technology of global change, and the next step is surely to tackle emissions control too

Sir David King

Sir David added: 'We can only overcome this challenge by facing it together, shoulder to shoulder.

'We in the rest of the world are now looking to the USA to play its leading part.'

Sir David said climate change was the most severe problem faced by the world.

'The United States is already in the forefront of the science and technology of global change, and the next step is surely to tackle emissions control too,' he said.

'If we do not begin now, more substantial, more disruptive, and more expensive change will be needed later on.'

Population growth

Levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have risen steeply since the industrial revolution. Concentrations have increased mainly because of the use of fossil fuels, deforestation and other human activities, spurred on by economic and population growth.

Greenhouse gases stop energy escaping from the Earth's surface and atmosphere.

If levels rise too high, excessive warming can distort natural patterns of climate, researchers say.

What a liar.

What do I care whether some advisor on a govt's payroll agrees with me or not. Not a very smart argument, Scotty. Besides GW is good for you if you don't just sit on your green ass and whine, and hope to get your hands into the welfare jar filled with moneys from environmental permit charges and user fees extorted from hard working people.

That UK dude sings the way he does because he stands to make big time money, Scotty, from all kinds of permit charges, user fees and currency transfer appropriations.

Nothing but stupidity...
