LONDON - Unchecked global warming will devastate the global economy on the scale of the world wars and the Great Depression, according to a major British report released Monday that seeks to quantify the costs and benefits of action as well as inaction.

You know the admins are going to be all over you for changing the article's title--but your change is pretty funny.
The loons of the left. I wonder if Chicken Little was invited too ???
The Dems new theme: "The skies will be clear when the mushroom clouds appear."

Global warming is the biggest pile of sh*t lie that has been perpetrated on the American sheeple in a long time. There is simply no proof of the theory. Various political and financial interests are promoting it to line their pockets with cash, and to acquire political power. With the left wing media promoting the lie, they are succeeding. People need to wake up and question this nonsense, not just blindly accept what the media feeds them.
Never mind. Used to say "UK deals with manbearpig problem" or something to that effect.
The final nail in the coffin of the British Empire.

Yes, the socialist left is trying to take over MOTHER NATURE too. They are already trying to justify a GREEN TAX on people that are "threatening our world"....now they want to use Crazy Al to try and raise more grant money for academia to STUDY GLOBAL WARMING and help their "more tax" lobby....
I think we have the libs calibrated.
SOCIALISTS GONE MAD.
There will always be an England.
Until now.
