L’AQUILA, Italy—President Barack Obama is likely to come home from a series of back-to-back international summits here without agreement on the crux of a global deal to limit climate change, after developing countries balked at setting numerical targets to reduce their carbon emissions, U.S. officials said

We’ll continue to try and ruin our own economy with this BS, however.

Hey, ditzes. Just how do you propose to stop the climate from changing?

Global average temperatures will rise and fall as they will regardless of human activity. Algore may be too cute by half. Maybe he already has calculated the natural decline in temperature, yet will take credit after soaking us all with Cap-n-Trade. Wealth will be re-distributed, China and India will flip us the bird, but Amerika will “do its thing” for Glow Bull Warming. In fact, I’m surprised Algore hasn’t taken credit for the 0.74 degree cooling since he came out with his first pile of feces about the planet’s “fever”.

This whole thing about “climate change” is surreal. It’s like a massive delusion that has swept through, robbing people of their ability to think critically. To believe that human beings have the ability to alter climate is utterly insane.

I saw a recent article in Science magazine that some researchers have calculated that, at the current rate of carbon dioxide disappearance, there will not be enough CO2 to support life on Earth in another 100 million to 1 billion years. The levels of atmospheric CO2 have been declining for millions of years.

Obviously, what these “climate change” fanatics want to do is to remove all CO2 from the air, thereby accelerating the extinction of all life on Earth.
