Euros Balk On Climate Agreement
The Euros are balking when it comes to paying to prevent climate change. As if restricting the output of plant food could actually accomplish that goal. Environmental campaigners slammed Europe's governments tonight after latest talks to settle funding levels for climate change broke down without agreement.Good news for the people who would actually have to pay for this stuff. You know the former darlings of the socialists. The Workers. Who seem to have become a liability. Evidently the workers are putting up a fight. Nine of Europe's poorer countries, led by Poland, demanded their own economic circumstances be taken into account before the EU agrees up to 15 billion euros ($22.5 billion) in financial aid for developing nations.Ah yes. Well things are looking bad indeed. Except for one small point. Temperatures are not rising. They are falling. Global satellite data is analyzed for temperature trends for the period January 1979 through June 2009. Beginning and ending segments show a cooling trend, while the middle segment evinces a warming trend. The past 12 to 13 years show cooling using both satellite data sets, with lower confidence limits that do not exclude a negative trend until 16 to 22 years. It is shown that several published studies have predicted cooling in this time frame. One of these models is extrapolated from its 2000 calibration end date and shows a good match to the satellite data, with a projection of continued cooling for several more decades.Evidently there is no rush to curb emissions of plant food. We have time to study the matter further and come up with economical fixes if a fix is even needed. Cross Posted at Power and Control posted by Simon on 10.21.09 at 06:47 AM |

If we could just get the whole world to hold their breath for 1 minute a day, we could reduce CO2 emissions by 234.375% and achieve ecological purity in just two years.
Sounds stupid? It's no more stupid than any other global warmmongering "solution" and it doesn't cost $trillions.
