They should be more concerned about future generations laughing at them.
“Climate change, and what we do about it, will define us, our era, and ultimately the global legacy we leave for future generations,” the secretary general said.
Well you are partly right. Just not in the way you think. You will be viewed as a fool in the future sir...as well as the present.
Did someone forget to tell Ban that less than half of published scientists subscribe to the “man is the cause of global warming” platform?
It’s funny how the UN endorses fixing the climate but won’t lift a finger to help anyone in Darfur.
Well Mr.UN chief, when the biggest polluters are exempt from all standards, why should we even begin to care? These punks in the UN are feckless cowards who can’t do a damn thing to stop commie tyrannical thugs from getting nukes to wipe us off the planet and they are worried about the planet warming 1 degree over the next 100 years! Worry about the nukes you A-hole or we won’t have a planet to worry about!
The people in the future will say that the Right won the War on Terror, and that the Left declared war on the freaking weather - and lost.
Ban Ban , already? .. He just got there.
This was one of his things coming into the job, he fits in nicely to the UN machine.. and its ecoagenda.
Less Than Half of all Published Scientists Endorse Global Warming Theory
I’ll remember this guy as the jerk who invitied the murdering, kidnapping terrorist from Iran to come to NYC and address the UN.
Future generations will give environmentalists the same credibility as the flat earth society and those primitives who thought banging on bongos makes the solar eclipse go away.
The UN should take a hike as well as the politicians in this country duping the public into mass transit using global warming as an excuse. Universal mass transit is the ultimate goal with this global warming hysteria. It one more means of of control by a government over the people. Ultimately, your life will be owned by the state.
...and the same way we view the wackos that forwarded the “Global Cooling” agenda in the 70s. Basically set aside as a footnote documenting the ignorance of people in large groups.
Shall the little people follow K-Moon’s example? I take it he made his trip here by walking and taking a row-boat? Oh no, that is what the little people must do — the rules only apply to the underlings, not the big Moon.
If that is true, everything about this begins to make more sense.
I disagree completely. The mainstream will forget about this foolishness and will be in full scare mode for the next crisis in their dream of bringing about global socialism and tearing down the US. Global Warming will be conveniently forgotten.
As they huddle next to the fire in their fur robes, wishing we had been smart enough to retain the technology which would have allowed them to more readily adapt to the advance of the ice sheet, they will curse their ancestors' stupidity...
