I’d suggest that a good way to eliminate much CO2 would be to shut down the UN.

So when global cooling becomes reality, does that mean that "developing" countries will owe blackmail payments to "developed" countries?

The real blame game they’re doing is, who screwed up the scam?

The developing countries want the developed countries to write checks as payback for all the carbon they’ve pumped out? Not even the Kool-Aid drinkers in Europe will fall for that one.

Wait, do you mean that subsidizing gilded toilets, private jets and blonde hookers for 3rd world dictators won’t slow the rise of the seas? You dont say.

This is just like Obamacare.

The left dreams up a false crisis (healthcare) for one reason only...to steal from the middle class.

Same with global warming. A scheme JUST to steal money.

They are liars and thieves.

Now if the other half can be convinced to walk out the conference should be considered successful.

compensation for the impact of global warming.

That is the extent of what the talks were about... compensation.

Not about solving the supposed climate problem. True leftist meeting, just a discussion of taking from the successful for the un-develped.
