Oh The Irony!

A climate agreement in Copenhagen is not an easy thing to achieve. Months of talks and negotiations have preceded the conference on climate change, and now the leaders of the most important countries in the world are weighing in, and still, there is no agreement in sight. Hilary Clinton is putting $1 Trillion on the table to influence the weather. Government can achieve great things, but can they really bring us better weather? "Today's moderately warm and dry day brought to you by the US government" is not a headline you will ever read.
The 16,000 attendees at the conference were not able to generate enough hot air to prevent 4 inches of snow and below freezing temperatures in Copenhagen, which, by the way, has not had a white Christmas in 14 years. My friend Michael, in England sent me a photo of the snow they had yesterday, extremely rare for this time of year. It is snowing in Paris today, and I can't help but think that God is snubbing his nose at all these brilliant people who think they can control his creation.
But, I am sure that Al Gore would tell you that cooling is part of warming.

Update: Late today an agreement was arrived at. Basically, it is an agreement to re-distribute the wealth of the world. It has little to do with climate change. Will China, for example, be transparent in its attempts to cut carbon emissions? Highly doubtful. There will be cap and trade and carbon credits so in effect there will not only be a re-distribution of the wealth of the world, but also a re-distribution of the carbon of the world, not a reduction. These people need to read some of the literature on the facts and fallacy of what a green house gas really is and whether carbon dioxide fits the description. It is picked on because it is something that involves every one's life and can be controlled through price. Ultimately, we will lose our freedom over it. And the climate will continue to change.
