The global elitists attending the Copenhagen junk science summit will produce as much carbon as Malawi over the same time period.

The Daily Mail reported, via Free Republic:

It is being hyped as the summit that will save the planet.

But according to critics, next week’s climate change talks in Copenhagen are more likely to cost the earth.

Researchers have estimated that the bill for the 12-day jamboree will top £130million – and will generate as much greenhouse gas as an entire Africa country.

More than 15,000 delegates and 45,000 green activists are due to descend on the Danish capital over the next two weeks in a meeting described this week by British economist Lord Stern as ‘the most important since the Second World War’.

They will be joined by at least 5,000 journalists – including 35 from the BBC alone – and 100 world leaders, including Gordon Brown and Barack Obama.

The United Nations conference set targets for cutting global greenhouse gas emissions from farming, industry and transport in a bid to prevent dangerous global warming.

The aim is to keep the rise in world temperatures to within 2C by the end of the century.

Climate scientists believe a 40 per cent cut on 1990 levels of emissions is needed by 2020 – rising to an 80 per cent cut by 2050.

At the same time, Western nations will be asked to pay into a fund worth around £100billion a year to help developing countries protect themselves against rising sea levels, droughts and floods, and build their own wind turbines, clean power plants and arrays of solar panels.

President Obama and Danish Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen have conceded that the conference will not produce a legally binding treaty.

The UN has confirmed that the flights, rail, bus, food and energy from the conference will generate at least 41,000 tons of carbon dioxide.

That’s more greenhouse gas than produced by Malawi, Afghanistan or Sierra Leone over the same period.

More… Saudi Arabia called for an independent investigation into “climategate” on Monday.

  1. BHO should NOT be allowed out of the Country to attend COP15 ….He should be hauled off to the Senate to answer for his Appointment of his Sicko Czar Jennings. Priorities please. Think about it. He should be sitting in front of a Panel and on C-Span for questioning about his School Czar. Televised for all to see. ((Please I can not discuss the Czar cuz I get ill) I am serious. ***As to Copenhagen… we will be living like an African Country soon**

  2. “It wont be a case of global warming that we in Britain have a problem with, house warming is likley to be the major issue as we cant afford any.
    - stuart, Chesterfield,Derbyshire, 07/12/2009 12:39″ FROM the DailyMail UK…..(…) Breaking the comment down (…) The ‘common man’ i;e Families like US and in the U.K. can not afford this AWG junk. They know it and we know it. The Climate Change in Copenhagen is for the Elites.
    In America we have ‘house warming parties’ for usually young married couples when they purchase their first home. That WAS the American Dream. In this case….the commenter in the U.K. is concerned about the affordability of heating/warming costs of an existing home. It is early and I am sleep-deprived so perhaps I am reading the comment wrong. And yet…. ((Think punitive taxation)) Think of Michelle saying we will make you leave your Comfort Zones or BHO during the Campaign saying “It’s not going to happen” “You can’t set your thermostat on 70 and think the WORLD will accept that” (…) Or words to that effect. Gee Thanks ObamaBots…

  4. Jim ….thank you for all you do … (….) Smiles Best site with the best ‘members’ IMO… Hope you see the HDR Pic of Missouri I left at an earlier post… God Bless. And BTW I got a 509 error yesterday. Pray that no more hackers destroy your bandwith. It is scary when you or my friends here are not HERE AT ALL!

  5. “Climate scientists believe a 40 per cent cut on 1990 levels of emissions is needed by 2020 – rising to an 80 per cent cut by 2050″ just like any changes in healthcare will take years -
    decades per peter orzak. sounds like a gravy train.

  6. http://www.weaselzippers.net/blog/2009/12/little-white-lie-or-talking-about-his-aunt-friday-bo-said-he-and-michelle-have-unemployed-family-mem.htm What a Liar A RECENT Comment from BHO and Michelle SEE: “SCHNECKSVILLE, Pa. – President Obama traveled to the economically hard hit Lehigh Valley region of Pennsylvania to say, “I know times are tough.”

    To illustrate his message of commiseration, he suggested that joblessness hits close to home. He told a community college audience in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, “Michelle and I were talking the other day. There are members of our families that are out of work.”

    Mr. Obama added, “We’re not that far removed from struggling to pay bills.”

    What a sicko… BHO and Michelle are “Struggling to pay Bills” WTH?

  7. When the world’s elite gather in mass
    And party themselves on their ass
    It’s truly a crime
    And all on your dime
    While chains for our slavery they cast

    They couldn’t do math, it’s too tuff
    So they just went and made this crap up
    And now they’re exposed
    Their agenda is hosed
    But is it now wounded enough?

    You must resist loudly with verve
    And not let them rattle your nerve
    The ball’s in our court
    But it’s a blood sport
    Our freedom we’ll fight to preserve

  8. The epitome of elitist hypocrisy.

  9. Remember: The issue is never the issue. The issue is control.

  10. The hyperbole and bs about this Copenhagen meeting is just astonishing. The most important meeting since WWII, puh-leeze. Pres. Reagan’s meetings with PM Thatcher, Pope John Paul II, Gorbachev, and Lech Walensa, were much more important to the world than this prostitute socialist (darn I repeated myself) anti american/ anti capitalist bash in Europe. The AGW religion has no clothes. It is a hoax and more and more people are learning about how these bureaucrats in the AGW movement have treated us like fools.

  11. Saudi Arabia is calling for an investigation into climategate? At last, the Muslims are doing something I like.

  12. Well, after the muslims take over Europe they won’t have to worry about any climategate since the mussies will push them right back to the middle ages…….

  13. The jetsetters have no intention of curbing their own excesses. They want to feel good by making the rest of us make the sacrifices they themselves refuse to make for the sake of “saving the earth.”

    Suppose for the sake of argument that the science is completely right and that our reliance on fossil fuels really is disrupting the Earth’s natural climate patterns. Then what are these people doing? They are apparently burning such gigantic amounts of fossil fuel that it apparently wouldn’t matter how little the rest of us are burning. Somehow the word “hypocrisy” seems hopelessly inadequate to describe this situation.

    Previous poster is right: The issue is never the issue. The issue is control. The issue is to have the rest of us consuming less so that the jetsetters have more for themselves and can continue their insanely lavish lifestyles while the rest of us try to scrape by on the scraps they leave for us. Whenever I hear the phrase “eat the rich”, it’s these people I think of — not the Wall Street tycoons who at least provide jobs for the less fortunate but reasonably competent, but the kind of people who have to have the grandest luxuries on the planet and don’t care how this affects other people. It’s as if the old French aristocracy has come back from the dead.

  14. Cap and Tax + “Health Care” = Complete Control.

  15. For every 42.5 cents spent on this “environmental” conference,
    1 pound of CO2 is released into the atmosphere.

    EPA? Politics? Perish the Thought!

    [Talk about an accelerated change of climate. The Environmental Protection Agency will reportedly declare carbon dioxide a dangerous pollutant today, setting the stage for extensive government
    regulations that will dramatically increase costs for business.

    In a sense, the Obama administration is presenting an alternative Christmas present to the climate change summit that opens in Copenhagen today. The U.S. Senate failed to pass a cap-and-trade treaty in time for the summit, leaving the administration with nothing to offer beyond a presidential visit. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson's unexpected but exquisitely timed announcement allows White House officials to save face and the president to be hailed as a hero in the Danish capital.]

    re: [Saudi Arabia is calling for an investigation into climategate? At last, the Muslims are doing something I like.]

    if nothing else, The War Against The Saudis is
    extremely enlightening.. not to mention this..

    Global Warming is a Political Problem

    [“Soros said: “There is no magic bullet for
    climate change, but there is a lethal bullet: coal.”]

    aside from all else Soros, Obama & Gore, i’m
    telling you, Obama can’t wait, uh, refuse to sign..

    same goes for Obama/Kennedy/Dodd
    Health Care, cap & trade, etc, etc, etc.

    Soros & Strong are behind the power grab for the
    New World Order under the auspices of the UN..

    Eco-economic Warfare and the Planned Collapse of Western Civilization

    [Maurice Strong is perhaps most widely known as the co-author of the 1994 Earth Charter with the communist and former Russian president Mikhail Gorbachev, who once stated that the threat of environmental crisis will be the "international disaster key that will unlock the New World Order." Strong's rise to prominence as internationalist gofer to the Rothschilds and Rockefellers goes back to 1946, when Strong was just 17 and working as a clerk at the United Nations in New York City. It was here that Strong was befriended and recruited by David Rockefeller. Despite his minimal credentials of only a high school diploma, Strong is moved up the ladder quickly following his introduction to Rockefeller, becoming a millionaire by his mid-20s, during the Alberta oil and gas boom. At the age of 25, Strong became the President of Dome Petroleum in Calgary. By the age of 35, he is the CEO of the Power Corporation of Canada. While at the Power Corporation, Strong hires Paul Martin and James Wolfensohn, both of whom would move up the ladder quickly and go on to hold high positions of power -- Martin as Prime Minister of Canada, and Wolfensohn as President of the World Bank. (Strong would later become an advisor to Wolfensohn at the World Bank.)

    At the UN, Strong would go on to become Director of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP), Senior Advisor to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, and Chairman of the Earth Council. He would also become Chairman of the World Resources Institute, Co-Chairman of the Council of the World Economic Forum, and a member of Toyota's International Advisory Board. Strong's most influential role to date, however, has been as the Secretary-General of the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED -- aka the Earth Summit) in Rio de Janeiro. It was this conference that gave birth to the Earth Charter and Agenda 21, which would lay the groundwork for a completely managed global society run and managed under the auspices of the UN, under the guise of saving the environment.

    It is people such as Maurice Strong, Mikhail Gorbachev, Al Gore, and Ted Turner that are at the forefront of the UN's environmental/depopulation agenda, at least at the visible/gofer level. The four are also members of, or have close connections to the Club of Rome. It is the Club of Rome that has been guiding the environmental movement since its creation at the Rockefellers' estate in Bellagio, Italy in 1968. It's aim is to reduce a large majority of the global population, as well as manufacture crisis through which the world can be "united" under a one world government, as was admitted in their 1991 publication, titled The First Global Revolution.]

    Agenda 21

    The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development

    oh yeah, the Rothschilds & Rockefeller’s..

    The First Global Revolution:
    Blueprint for a new global order

    [“In searching for the new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. In their totality and in their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common threat which demands the solidarity of all peoples. But in designating them as the enemy, we fall into the trap about which we have already warned, namely mistaking symptoms for cause. All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changing attitudes and behaviors that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself.”]

    yes, there much more, and most, if not all, of the dots connect, go figure..

    they’re building a religion..

    & our Savior Obama is confident that they can
    CREATE A KINGDOM right here on EARTH..
