We're Dirt; We're Dead

December 3, 2003

Russia (the "Soviet Union" to Howard Dean) seems poised to repeat the action
of the Senate of the United States, which by a 98-0 vote - which means every
Democrat voted NO - rejected the Kyoto Treaty. Kyoto was specifically aimed
at punishing the United States of America, while leaving big polluters like
China and India (over 1/3rd of earth's population) free from restrictions
because they're "developing." This is feel-goodism of the kind we saw when
General David Dinkins won the New York City Democratic Mayoral Primary.

Kyoto is based on making those who insist on blaming humans (at the expense
of all science which credits that giant ball of a hydrogen fire called the
Sun, whose increased activity causes increased plant growth and more CO2)
for the heating of a planet that's temperature has never, ever been stable.
(See the ice ages.) Andrei Illarionov, a top Kremlin economic adviser,
backed by President Vlad Putin, said Russia would not approve the pact
because it hindered the nation's economic growth.

The EU still holds out hope they can bribe the Russians. You see, one of the
many flaws in this treaty that fixes something we don't even think is
happening, is that it sets 1990 as the target level for emissions reduction.
Since Russia was the USSR then - and the communist states polluted way
more - Russia has already met its targets! As a result, the cash-strapped
nation could sell "pollution credits" to Japan, Canada or the EU. What are
our smugly green EU nations doing to put their money where their mouths are?
Well, not much. The UK Guardian reports that 13 of the EU's 15 member states
were set to miss their emission reduction targets "by a huge margin."

The scaremongering continues from the Baltimore Sun: "Two of the nation's
top climate scientists say there's no longer any doubt that human activities
are changing the Earth's atmosphere and its climate, and that our children
and grandchildren will inherit the consequences." No, our children and
grandchildren will be dead, apparently. The scientists say, "We are entering
the unknown." You know what else is "unknown," the weather two weeks from
Sunday. Let me remind you again, folks, that it's heating up on Mars - and
there are no SUVs up there. Remember also the story we brought you in the
winter of 2001, when Siberia had a record COLD winter.
