Carbon dioxide accumulation in the atmosphere reached a record high last year and grew at the fastest rate in 30 years, the United Nations' climate agency reported Tuesday.

Wendy Watson-Wanker, executive secretary of UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, warned that time is running out in the mission to prevent devastating climate change.

"It is high time the ocean, as the primary driver of the planet’s climate and attenuator of climate change, becomes a central part of climate change discussions,” said Watson-Wanker.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Not even close. The SUN is the primary driver of the planet’s climate.

Gonna do something about it you ignorant philistines?

Immediate calls for raising taxes on all Americans to help pay for climate change weapons for countries run by despots, dictators, radical Islamists, could be heard through out the chamber.

Correct. The UN is full of watermelons - green outside but thoroughly red inside.

Well, I told the ocean he had to attend the meetings, and he told me to bugger off, Ms. Wanker.

In order for Libs to understand, might I suggest a few changes?

1. The Sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the Earth. Think about how small the Earth must feel.

2. The Sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets. Balls of fire are hot. What do you think you would feel if you touched a ball of fire?

3. The Earth is one of the Sun’s planets. They are like a family, with the Sun as the Republican father (he provides all the energy), the Earth as the Democrat mother (she takes all the energy), and the Moon as her baby (it simply reflects the energy). Think of the energy as money. Which is correct?

4. The Earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the Sun. The Sun grabs onto the Earth and makes all her decisions for her. Who do you feel is responsible now?

5. Inhabitants of the Earth are less than specks. How does that make you feel? Right. The Sun is at fault here.

GW is not about controlling the Sun.

That would be funny except it is completely true.

Kerry made a statement about it.

Anyone who’s been to China recently (as I have) knows where the air pollution is being generated.

Do you think the carbon dioxide growth has anything to do with all those beheadings of innocents by the True Believing Muslims and that is why Obama is going after the JR-VARISTY IS/ISIS/ISF OR what ever they are currently?

Times up, quit spending money to prevent it instead of spending to prepare for it!
