There are not many empty seats in the dismal, echoing conference chamber in the ghastly concrete box that is the Hotel Maritim here in Bonn, where the UNs latest attempt to maneuver the 194 States Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change gets underway today.The international community, as it is now called, is here in full force, in the shape of expensively-suited, shiny-shod bureaucrats with an urbane manner and absolutely no knowledge of climate science whatsoever.
However, one empty chair is a pointer of things to come. The Holy See a tiny nation in its own right, with a billion citizens around the world has left its chair empty. And that is significant. If global warming still mattered, the Vatican would make sure that its representatives were present throughout this gloomy gathering of world-government wannabes.
This emergency conference, called by the UNs bureaucrats because they were terrified that Cancun this December might fail as spectacularly as Copenhagen did last year, is a much quieter affair than Copenhagen. Not only has the air of triumphalism gone, after the scandals of Climategate, Himalayagate, Amazongate and so forth, but the belief that global warming is a global crisis has largely gone too.
There are a few true-believers left among the national delegates, but more of them than before are open to discussion of the previously-forbidden question what if the climate extremists have made the whole thing up?
The Chinese Xinhua News Agency, for instance, came up to the table manned by the environmental campaigners of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow, which takes a hard-boiled, cynical view of the notion that a tiny increase in the atmospheric concentration of a trace gas is likely to cause a thousand international disasters.
The reporters were genuinely interested to hear that there is another side to the story. Huan Gongdi, the Agencys senior correspondent in Germany, asked me what I thought of the Copenhagen accord (a waste of time), what was happening in Bonn (a desperate attempt to ram through a binding Treaty that can be put in front of the US Senate before the mid-term elections make Senate acceptance of any such treaty unthinkable), and whether or not there was a climate crisis anyway (there isnt).
I explained to Mr. Huan that even if the UN had not exaggerated the warming effect of CO2 many times over there was still nothing we could do about the supposed crisis, because we were emitting so little of the stuff in the first place.
For the record, I did the sum in front of him. The atmospheric concentration of CO2 today is about 388 parts per million by volume. However, we are adding just 2 ppmv a year to the air. So the warming we cause each year, even if one believes the UNs wild exaggerations of CO2s warming effect, is just 4.7 times the natural logarithm of the proportionate increase in CO2 concentration from 388 to 390 ppmv.
Thus, 4.7 ln(390/388) = 0.043 Fahrenheit degrees less than a twentieth of a Fahrenheit degree of global warming every year. That is all. Putting it another way, it would take almost a quarter of a century with no carbon-emitting activity at all not a single train, plane, automobile, or fossil-fueled power station to forestall just 1 Fahrenheit degree of global warming.
That is why no Treaty based on controlling the amount of carbon dioxide the world emits can possibly work. And that is why there is no hurry anyway. The only reason for the UNs sense of urgency a panic no longer felt by the majority of the delegates here is that the bureaucrats know the game is up. Opinion polls throughout the free world show that no one now believes a word of the climate extremists nonsense any more. If they cant get a binding treaty this year, they wont get one at all, and they know it.
I shall be reporting frequently from the conference as events unfold.
fyi
I was struck, watching an Obozo speech FRagment the other day (my clicker was so far FRom my right hand that I had to watch a few seconds of it — I hate it when that happens!) by how much he does take after Hitler in his charismatic arrogance and condescending speechifying.
We are in for a rough three more years!
Remember that the position of POTUS is a puppet post, and the president is simply a frontman for the globalist elite.
Expect the 45th president to be worse than Obama.
My opinion of course, I think there is/was motivation by the Jon Stewart media to rake the tiny nation over the proverbial coals, this past month, because of something like this... although I thought it was to get a 'holy' campaign going over the compassionate need for Amnesty... I did not realize there was a seat for the tiny nation at table of globull warming.
I expect the 45th President to be a Real American! And take orders only FRom the American people.
The Holy See has diplomatic status around the world, with ambassadors, etc.
Well apparently they did not see fit to send an ambassador to sit at this table... Now think maybe the Jon Stewart media reminding the world of 'priest' abuse and ensuing cover up is NOT at least in part to pay back this major oversight?
That's what many other Americans want for their president, but unfortunately, the globalist elite is still in control, working hard behind the scenes for the installation of a one world government.
The last president who was a true President of the United States and benefited America as a whole was John F. Kennedy.
Unfortunately, when he attempted to take back the government from the criminal globalist elite (such as signing EO 11110, mandating the production of United States Notes through the governmental treasury instead of the Federal Reserve - I should call it Criminal Reserve), they brutally killed him in cold blood through their assassin Lee Harvey Oswald (there may have been additional snipers in case Oswald missed his shots).
That sent a spine-chilling message to Kennedy's successors, and other world leaders: Follow our orders, or DIE.
No other U.S. president since JFK has been assassinated to date.
And if a president like the one you described came into office and turned against the globalist elite, he would meet the same fate as JFK, Abraham Lincoln or William McKinley.
Again, please take note that the position of POTUS is a puppet post, and this puppet position is deemed VERY important to the globalist elite.
This is the reason why:
You’ll have to post much more verifiable information than this to convince me that there is an international “criminal globalist elite” conspiracy to control the world.
Best you write a book in which your assertions are independently verifiable.
IOW, if you know who “they” are, “they” can be taken out.
With extreme prejudice, if we need to.
