The Carbon Sense Coalition today said that Australia must not renew its
Kyoto Agreement.
The Chairman of “Carbon Sense”, Mr Viv Forbes, said that the current
failing agreement was signed without due diligence by Kevin Rudd and should be
referred to as “Rudd’s Folly”.
.
Forbes continued:
“Appropriately, the death notice for the Kyoto mis-adventure was posted
by Japan, the birthplace of Kyoto, when their representative at Cancun Resort
announced:
“Japan will not inscribe its target under the Kyoto protocol on any
conditions or under any circumstances.”
“Thus the four biggest economies in our region (USA, China, Japan and
India) will not sign; nor will Australia’s big competitors in Brazil (iron and
beef), Indonesia (coal), Chile (copper) or Canada (wheat).
“If Australia is foolish enough to renew its Kyoto liabilities it will
find itself isolated in the Pacific with only gullible Kiwis and faraway
Europeans for company.
“The old Soviets have benefitted from Kyoto by outsmarting everyone on
choosing the base year. No one else will achieve the unrealistic Kyoto targets,
which is lucky because they could not be achieved without a repeat of the Great
Depression or the collapse of the Soviet Union.
“The use of carbon fuels, more than any other index, indicates the
health of the real economy. The only way to kill carbon is to kill the economy.
“Japan was shocked to realise the billions in liabilities they had
accumulated by not meeting Kyoto target cuts.
“Australia avoided a similar fate by robbing Australian landowners. They
stole carbon credits from landowners by imposing vegetation clearing bans. This
trick can’t be pulled twice.
“Kyoto also spawned many other wasteful schemes like pink batts, wind and
solar toys, carbon burial schemes and regulatory empires.
“The Kyoto Agreement is a costly failure, and the international meetings
which document the failure have degenerated into the farce now on display at
Cancun.
“Minister Combet should enjoy his tropical holiday, keep his pen in his
pocket and sign nothing.”

Wind
Power Lessons from Germany The bottom line: “Germans will have to prepare for significantly
higher electricity tariffs – and more frequent blackouts. “If all German wind power projects are realized as
planned, the country will incur economic losses well over 100 billion Euros
by 2030. “The only word that describes this ‘world
improvement’ strategy is suicidal.” From:

No Warming for 15
years.
The chairman of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change (IPCC), Rajendra Pachauri was interviewed recently at Cancun.
When asked about the fact that there has been no statistically significant
global warming for the past 15 years, Pachauri became evasive.
Most tellingly, while Pachauri agreed that global
carbon dioxide emissions have been increasing for the last 15 years, he was at
a loss to say how much global temperatures had increased during that same time.
That seems like a pretty basic piece of information for the head of the UN's
climate panel to know. See the following minute and a half video from CFACT:

Even Phil Jones, a climatologist at the University of East Anglia and a
prominent global warming alarmist, admitted there had been no warming for 15
years.
A year after Climategate, however, the IPCC's Pachauri still refuses to
face reality and clings to the deeply flawed 4th Assessment Report, which has
been completely discredited over the past year.
"This interview revealed that the IPCC chair is ignorant of some very
basic facts about global warming," said CFACT's Executive Director, Craig
Rucker. "This is particularly striking in light of all the criticism being
poured on the IPCC by scientists and independent review panels for its sloppy
handling of key data and vital information."
HOW MUCH MORE GLOBAL
WARMING?
Britain
on the way to Coldest December for 29 years.
Britain
was braced for another week of chaos last night as forecasters warned
temperatures would plummet to as low as -15c (5f).
With
some areas covered by up to one metre of snow forecasters said Britain had
already seen the deepest and most widespread snowfall for December since 1981.
And if
the temperatures remain below average for the rest of the month it could also
become the coldest on record since 1981.
