Hmmm. Global Warming on Neptune. Maybe Al Gore will find a way to blame it on human emissions, and provide us with a place where we can all pay for carbon credits to ease our collective guilt. ![]() |

Is this true?
Are my eyes decieving me? http://www.guardian.co.uk/internatio...092628,00.html Perhaps there is hope for us Tony Juniper, the head of Friends of the Earth, said: "This is a deliberate and carefully crafted attempt to derail any prospect of a climate change agreement (at the G8 summit) in Germany next week. [Mr Bush] is trying to destroy the prospect of that getting anywhere by announcing his own parallel process with very vaguely expressed objectives ... Basically we should see this as a delaying tactic to keep the climate change issue off his back in terms of any real decisions until he leaves office (in early 2009)." But then again, probably not:hmm: |

Not only the US and GWB my friend.
A crucial agreement on climate change failed to materialize in final talks at the ASEM summit in Hamburg on Tuesday, and the continuing gulf between European and developing Asian nations may likewise sink hopes for a climate agreement at next week's G-8 summit in Heiligendamm. http://www.spiegel.de/international/...485631,00.html |

Some of our American friends may wish to sign up here:
![]() http://action.foe.org/dia/organizati...ntent_KEY=2748 Or not. ![]() All this with reference to this week's honestly meant :rotfl: events: http://www.germanwatch.org/klima/g8mai.pdf (Anglish and German) http://www.spiegel.de/international/...485992,00.html http://www.spiegel.de/international/...486090,00.html http://www.spiegel.de/international/...486135,00.html http://www.spiegel.de/international/...485683,00.html Sometimes, no compromise is better than a foul compromise, and this is such an occasion. I do not expect Bush to move during the summit, and thus hope that the europeans and the Germans let the summit fail with flying colours, by that america could be better isolated and brandmarked as the world's major roadblock to tackling environmental problems and adapting to climate change. even China was becoming more willing to reconsider it'S stand - and now use the American stubborness again as an excuse not do move at all. Ironically, on national levels the US are far more positive on Green policies than is the administration. I reead that many cities and counties are far ahead of federal policies on renewable energies and emission control. Bush claims credits that are nit his own. However, nobody outside sees the US as world leader in according technologies and policies, but it could become something like that - after Bush is history and hopefully neither Hillary nor a Republican becomes the new president. Bush'S proposals are a fake, and you know what? ![]() And btw, Mr President, on your remarks in that speech of the US being the global leader in fighting climate change: the global market leader on wind energy technologies and manufacturing solar cells - is Germany (our books are filled with order for the mnext 13-17 years), while concerning according technologies American car makers lack behind considerably behind European and Japanese car manufacturers. You, Mr. President, are leader in only one thing: air pollution, and wasting oil. ![]() Bush is playing for time. But as a matter of fact, his nation already is ahead of him. It's only a question of time, until even america will start to move towards greener policies - necessarily. Green" does not mean "evil". It can boost your prestige - see California, and Arnold.It can boost your economy: see Germany, our ecology-related branches are skyrocketing. Unfortunately, time is what we do have less and lesser of.
