Obviously, the ChiComs have realized that the whole CO2 thing is a fraud. The Sun and the Volcanos control how hot the earth is, not man.
Thank you, China.

Then there are those of us who chalk it up to the LORD, working in His mysterious ways.
Sun Tzu at his finest...
What is funny, China liked Bush and the left is now trying to make them the new Bush.
it does sound like China and India have saved the planet from the Gaea worshipers and the neomarxists trying to destroy the economies of the West...which, when you think about it, is pretty freaking ironic...
You gotta love the Chinese on this one....
But it’s also India Brazil and many other developing nations that “sabotaged” the global warming lunatics from developed nations
Cheers for China and India for not buying into fake science
I make liberals cry when I tell them that China will undermine all their CO2 emissions schemes.
I love their clean coal scam which basically means you invert the smokestack and pump CO2 into the ground to be “sequestered” as they put it. Most harebrained enviro-scheme ever. Most unscientific scheme concocted by liberal arts majors
What is 0bama but a liberal arts major with zero science smarts in his empty skull?
The ChiComs....being the heirs to the Middle Kingdom racists that they are....loved rubbing the Kenyan’s nose in the dirt. Making him look the fool. The blathering nincompoop fool flailing about at imaginary ghosts of global warming
Actually Angela Merkel, Gordon Brown, Kevin Rudd and other lib leaders are just as idiotic and unscientific
I just love how these so-called environmentalists want to decrease the output of CO2—a by-product of every manufacturing process, as well as of every living thing—while completely ignoring some of the serious pollution problems that still exist.
Mexico, right across our border, has some of the most seriously polluted places one can imagine. The maquiladoras create absolute cesspools of toxic waste, and the borders are no more efficient at keeping the pollution out of the US than they are at keeping the illegal “immigrants” out.
If those self-proclaimed “environmentalists” really care about the environment, why don’t they put their efforts into cleaning up the areas around the maquiladoras—into helping find a solution to keep them from polluting so much while keeping up their manufacturing capability that’s so essential to lifting Mexican citizens out of poverty? Or—heck—there are so many constructive things that can be done in the name of the environment—but I guess those actually require work. Getting hysterical about a non-polluting natural gas requires no effort at all.
Remember, China ALWAYS acts out of self-interest. They were NOT going to agree to anything that hampered their economy. On top of that, they wanted to block anything that would kill OUR economy because a broke America can’t make good on its massive debt.
They know AGW is a scam, and further that they stand to lose a LOT if it continues. Ditto Russia.
Isn’t it scary that the actual communists understand the AGW hoax and its potential for economic damage better than many in the so-called “free” West?
The only reason they didn’t IMHO is because they hold so many US treauries (ie debt). A bankrupt US means a bankrupt China.
Now, if they (and India for thay matter) succeed in moving to a hard gold-backed currency - which they are clearly trying to do - then they’ll do exactly what you suggest. Our only hope is that sanity prevails in the US first...
1000 Thanks to China for sabotaging the climate talks!
Small Dead Animals picked it up and a SDA reader posted a very good translation. Scroll down a little to make sure you get the reader's version rather the than google translation.
Wretchard at Belmont Club linked up to the Small Dead Animals post with one of his own. As always, great comments at BC.
Interesting reading. I haven't seen this mentioned on any other German source. Die Welt is a quality source, IMHO.
Good post. Who thought we would ever see the day when:
- China takes stronger capitalist pro-growth actions than the US during the mini-depression, and sees a much faster recovery
- China maintains a strong pro-manufacturing, pro-jobs economy while the US sheds jobs and continues to penalize manufacturing
- China gets it right on enviro-terrorism while the US passes the greens billions in new cash and new squeaky toys
- China aggressively runs around the globe locking-in future fossil energy positions at the lowest costs in decades (while the US sits on its hands and scuttles nearly all new coal fired electric plants because of regulatory uncertainty)
Now tell me, which nation is capitalist? Which nation has the biggest political risks when it comes to 30-40 year energy decisions?
China is a totalitarian capitalist nation.
There are thousands of private for profit companies in China including many U.S. companies.
In communism/marxism private property and private companies are not allowed.
A lot of what you say is true. But China is not a communist country.
China is a totalitarian capitalist nation.
