The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has told an indigenous Ecuadorean farmer that her voice and the voices of the worlds poor are critical to achieving a strong climate deal for the most vulnerable communities.
Fabiola Quishpe, 42, who spends much of her time farming the land in her rural village high in the Ecuadorean Andes, is attending the pivotal Copenhagen summit as part of international development charity Progressios delegation. ...Fabiola told Dr Williams how her small community is working to protect the Andean grasslands and striving to live in harmony with nature ..."But they have the most to teach us about the consequences of failure to act and the way forward."

Hey...Archy...why dont you shut up and go marry your boyfriend...
If you’re Druid and you know it, burn a tree!
Like the poor would be in more danger then everyone else? Barf.

That’s a good thing, because when the US and Europe are living in the Dark Ages from the one-two-three punches of “Free” Health Care, Cap’n Tax, and the Islamic invasion; you’ll be on your own. The whole Third World that has come to depend on those handouts from the industrialized nations can kiss those good-bye when we’re fighting over truckloads of rice ourselves.
My father used two phrases that perfectly define His Grace the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury.
1 Too much book learning and not enough common sense.
2 The south end of a northbound donkey.
BTW. I am Anglican and already know what disaster this man has wrought.
I'm sure the Archbishop has not informed Fabiola that the current exit from the latest ice age will add one more and larger crop per year to her harvest.
If, on the other hand, we slip back into global cooling, her great grandaughter will see a thawless and cropless summer on the family farm.
OMG, Rowan Williams, who wants Sharia law in Britain, and thinks the persecution of Christians throughout Africa not worth mentioning, but is happy to serve a secret communion to a passle of homosexual priests and whatnot. Yeah we really need more antiquated prelates to advise us on the real world.
Basically we should all live in thatched huts and survive on subsistence farming.
I don’t really care what this Fudge Packer has to say. He stopped being a shepherd a long time ago. Baaaa
Oh for craps sake. Just watch The Great Global Warming Swindle and they lay out what these policies do to the poor countries. It is awful.

"Well, you see, if we don't stop the world from getting rapidly warmer . . . I may have to shave!"
