Specious Global Warming Hysteria

Nothing like more ridiculous climate warnings as we shiver through a 40-degree April day in the Northeast.

We're all going to die!
Billions of people face shortages of food and water and increased risk of flooding, experts at a major climate change conference have warned.

The bleak conclusion came ahead of the publication of a key report by hundreds of international environmental experts.

Agreement on the final wording of the report was reached after a marathon debate through the night in Brussels.

People living in poverty would be worst affected by the effects of climate change, the gathered experts said.

"It's the poorest of the poor in the world, and this includes poor people even in prosperous societies, who are going to be the worst hit," said Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
It all boils down to wanting more of our money.
"The challenge is now to support those people living in the most vulnerable areas so that they are able to adapt and improve their ways of life."
Here's an idea. Start with the $64 billion looted by the UN in the Oil-for Food scam. Then maybe we can talk.
