Our planet is just five years away from climate change catastrophe - but can still be saved, according to a new report.
The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) warns governments have until 2012 to "plant the seeds of change" and make positive moves to limit carbon emissions.

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
rush will have to adjust his 10-year Al gore warning down to 5 years...
I thought the title pertained to doing something about Iran. However, five years is way too long for THAT issue.
All of this "carbon credit" baloney and demands for the industrialized world to basically de-indutrialize to "save the planet" flies in the face of reason, and common sense. It amazes me that most, if not all, of the enviro-wacko people believe in Evolution (making a general statement here, so take a deep breath and relax), which basically has more in common with the steady-state earth theory, which postulates that change happens slowly, that the earth is pretty much in equilibrium, totally ignore the geological evidence which shows that climate change has happened many times over the course of the existence of this world, and there have been cataclysmic events which have contributed to those climate changes, some more, some less, but the climate of the planet has never been in a state of equilibrium. These morons think that we can stop the inevitible change by reducing our so-called "carbon footprint", as though the climate has never changed until now, and its all our fault.
Not a single thing they propose will make one whit of difference. The climate will change despite all we can do. We need to be looking to how to deal with what it changes to, rather than trying to stop it.
IIRC, that was one of the profundities of Woody Harrelson.
NIV Luke 21:25-28
25. "There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.
26. Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.
27. At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28. When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."
We should do nothing, then in year six we should kick them off our planet. In fact, to hell with it, let’s kick ‘em off right now.
aw, bummer...

Well, I guess I better cut that one sheet of toilet paper I’ve been using in half.
Seriously, I don’t know why these global warming people care. Many of them believe in evolution. When man is just a combination of cells that occured accidentally via a long chain of events, why does it really matter if man is gone?
