Copenhagen Bust

Good thing, too.

Look at these headlines today:

US wants India to assume leading role on climate change

"Ahead of the Copenhagen summit next month, the US today said India should take a leadership role on the issue of climate change and indicated it wanted the country to cut carbon emissions."

Copenhagen deal will be 'political' not 'legal'

"The Copenhagen summit is unlikely to produce a legally binding way forward on tackling climate change, Ed Miliband has admitted."

Vaclav Klaus: 'Largest tax increase in world history'

"We should not forget how the doctrine of global warming came into being. In a normal case, everything starts with an empirical observation, with the discovery of evident trends or tendencies. Then follow scientific hypotheses and their testing. When they are not refuted, they begin to influence politicians. The whole process finally leads to some policy measures. None of this was the case with the global warming doctrine."

Copenhagen toughens up Prentice

"...the federal government has finally realized the approaching climate-change talks are an impossible mission."

Nice summary. With any luck, the whole shebang will be lying on the floor, along with history's other big scams and crazy ideas, before there is an agreement, but what I see here is that the politicos have gotten the message but are still a wee bit frightened by the warmmongers. It's only a matter of time.
