Bali Climate Conference Fails
As the poles melted, the world governments assembled at the tropical paradise of Bali, to confront the climate crisis.With Canada running interference (threatening to kill the conference) - the U.S. APPEARED to give in - but actually gave up nothing. As we hear from the rabid supporters of the Bush Administration, the American Enterprise Institute. No firm targets were set - despite the willingness of Europe and all the rest of the developing world to act now. A huge opportunity missed.The ag...

TOP UK SCIENTIST'S BLUNT CLIMATE WARNING
Sir David King warns we are headed toward a hot-state planet, not seen since 55 million years ago (when life huddled on Antarctica).The only way out, he says, is a binding international agreement by 2009. Even so, we only have a window of 5 years to act, to cut carbon drastically. Otherwise, the global climate may shift by 5 degrees C. ( 9 degrees Fahrenheit) or more. Keep in mind, that's the just the global average. The arctic may go up 14 degrees or more.We are already experiencing massive...

(To hear the interview with F.

When some right wing pseudo fascist nut is convicted, or discovered in the bedroom of a little boy, something inside me accepts.
