Merkel used to exploit the hoax with the worst of them, even traveling to Greenland to pose with melting ice.

Bwahaha. The snow melts, the poop appears. Out of all it's Merkel, who fancied herself "climate chancellor".

I remember the German Enviro-Minister Gabriel calling Bush a "neanderthal" for refusing to heed Kyoto. HYPOCRITES!

One of my 2009 predictions is that Germany will effectively withdraw from the EU.

The new fuhrer’s handlers will ensure the USA bows its collective economic neck to AGW.

That will be the least noticed and longest lasting evil he will do.

What a hyocrite. Too bad we really didn’t finish the job in WWII. Dresden was a good start. And that includes saying auf wiedersein to some of my distant relations.

That's why its a hoax! As long as its cost-free, every one is for reducing "global warming." When it threatens jobs and economic competitiveness, you stop hearing about it.

Infuriating environmentalists who couldn't care less about human suffering, Merkel now says of the impending EU climate deal, It must not take decisions that would endanger jobs or investments in Germany.

I love those very few occasions when the political mists part and the truth appears in full view. It happens so rarely.

The title of this thread matches the title from the source blog. However, the source blog apparently played fast and loose with the facts. From the title one would conclude that Merkel had referred to global warming as a “farce”. There does not seem to be a direct quote to that effect in the article. Merkel merely states that German jobs and the German economy should not be put at risk in the name of global warming.

That’s a far cry from Merkel calling it a “farce”.

Did the Chancellor actually say 'farce'? Or maybe Posse?

The Germans also spend heavily on renewable technologies. Proportionally they have spent about 5x as much as Obama proposes in his green technology plan and has created a tiny fraction of the jobs that Obama says will be created (proportionally).

I don't recall many warm days during my four years in Germany.

But that was 25 years ago, and the earth has warmed substantially during that time.

Um, that's what algore sez.

Now that I think about it, some global warming would have been welcome, particularly at a nude beach near Todendorf (on the Baltic Sea). The level of shrinkage was inversely related to the briskness of the winds off the Baltic.

>>According to an unpublished report by the economy ministry, Germany risks losing more than 100,000 jobs if the EU were to force industries to pay for pollution rights that are currently free.

This needs to be challenged every time it is asserted. CO2 is *not* a pollutant. It is a plant growth stimulator, therefore, if anything, it is Green!
