I refuse to contribute one dime to further the Global Warming Scam. Screw the UN.
How the heck do you buy a credit from an investor?
The Mafia would be proud of this shakedown. Extort money to buy worthless carbon credits. Even Ponzi would blush at such an idea!
What a scam. I am selling carbon credits for only $25 a ton.
Ask Gore, he seeks to profit off this nonsense.
As reported by Bloomberg Friday (emphasis added throughout, h/t Benny Peiser):
Japan, Italy and Spain face payments of as much as $33 billion
CO2 Ping
Sounds great, where do we sign up?
SUCKERS!
And where does that loot go? To the UN jet-setters?
So who actually pockets all these billions of dollars/Euros in payments for fictitious “permits” to emit???
So glad the USA avoided this Kyoto nonsense, although I understand that our CO2 emissions have increased relatively little compared to many of the Kyoto signatories?? Also, they chose the year 1990 for benchmark which was badly chosen.
However, if we are foolish enough to go along with this Bali nonsense, etc. we may get dragged along into a new treaty?? Would the Bush admin. actually be so foolish?
never mind that Jimmy Carter was once President and Clinton was elected twice. ;-)
sure hope Japan , Italy and Spain can set-up an installment plan or sumthin',, could realy hurt their economies otherwise. (/understatement)
“How the heck do you buy a credit from an investor?”
Al Gore’s carbon credit company buys credits from the corrupt military government of Lower Botswobia. The Botswobian military confiscates the single light bulb from every mud hut in the country.
Then Japan buys the credits from Al.
With a slight mark-up added by Al.
Get ready. It’s coming from Congress.
Mostly turd world dictators who expect to cash in on the deal, while polluting the skies flying their "delegates" to the conference, and cause a mini environmental disaster on the Island with all the garbage they produce.
Whay a bunch of hypocrites and crooks. Kofee annan taught them well. I say we give enough to those crap holes, it's long past time they pulled up their sandals, got off their butts and started taking care of themselves. This endless welfare has got to come to an end.
This is the truth.
As Bubba was leaving office at the end of his second term, he signed a bill, which had to be approved by the Senate, committing the U.S. to be a part of the Kyoto Protocol.
The Senate, probably 50-50 or so at the time, rejected the bill 95 - zero. That included a whole lot of Dimocratz who knew that the Kyoto Protocol was a loaded gun pointed at the US taxpayer.
You can bet on it.
None of them are going to pay a dime. Who's going to enforce collection?
Wow - carbon credits are big business.
If we pay them, will it end poverty at the global level?
...didn’t think so...
The Dems were against it because if anyone is going to extort money from the taxpayer it is going to be them, not somebody else.
