EU to Boycott Climate Talks?

Question

I saw a news story where the EU plans to boycott climate talks until the U.S. makes cuts in energy consumption. Who the hell cares first of all? More importanty, is this what things are coming to... Are we going to allow the EU or UN or anyone to dictate to us what our energy consumption should be.

You people need to realize that industry, our economy, and any type of progress in this country will be impacted negatively by ANY policy which puts limits on energy consumption. Also, countries that we compete with on the global market, like China will never agree to do the same. These people are not anti-pollution - effectively, they are anti-progress and anti-United States.

Your Thoughts???

Answer 1

Welcome to the NEW WORLD ORDER, and the U.S.A. being instructed as to what we can and can not do, for the 'benefit of mankind' !!!!!!
V.O.L., This is only another example of the NWO bunch's preparing the American citizens, to accept what THEY want !!!
Yes sir, just one of the many examples in the past, those now, and a BUNCH more, in the future.
It is a 'crying shame' just how many people have fallen for the aspersions that "Man kind " is responsible for the global warming. Seems that NO ONE wants to study the earths GEOLOGY, and learn that the earth has had 'warming and cooling' cycles, THOUSANDS of times in the past 4.5 Billion years, and has been in this one (an overall major occurrence) since about 15,000 years ago.
The NWO is simply using this subject, as a means to obtain their objective; "Bring the USA own to a level, whereby the average American will conform to our agenda" !!!!

Answer 2

Most of the energy consumed in the US goes for two purposes which are going to be hard to get around - transportation and heating/cooling. We have half of the people that the EU has in nearly twice the space, so where they're packed in like sardines, there's a lot of land you have to cover to get from one place to another here. In addition, the ocean currents that make Europe cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter have the opposite effect here; even though New York and Chicago are further south on the globe than London or Paris, the weather extremes in the two American cities would freak out most Europeans.

Energy usage can be cut here, and emissions as well, but there's going to have to be a renewable source available, because the two conditions aren't going to change anytime soon - we're still going to be spread out, and it's still going to be a lot colder and a lot warmer here than it is in Europe.

If global warming is such a huge problem (and it's being overstated in my opinion, but very real) then the entire world needs to make the cuts, not just the developed world. Developing nations should not be allowed to get off without limiting their usage as well, and it could easily be said that they would use the energy less efficiently than the developed nations would. China and India are using this as a tool to gain further economic prominence, and the rest of the developing world isn't going to limit them, for if China and India can do it, why can't they?

If Europe wants the US to make cuts, then the EU needs to push the developing world to do the same. But, the EU as well sees the economic advantage it can gain here as well, so the US needs to remain adamant that if they have to cut, so does everyone else.

Answer 3

It's clearly an orchestrated scam to bring the U.S. down from its position as the world's economic leader. Apparently, the U.N. and Gore know that they will not get another chance to have us sign up for a long term expense contract for an imaginary cause for awhile. Hence, boycott the U.S.! It bears resemblance to a circus act. Shame on Gore to be willing to bring his country down in order to elevate his status. Imagine if Kerry were the president, he'd sign right up!

By the way, whatever happened to global warming this December? I'm glad I bought a snowblower. Haven't had this much snow in 6-7 years.

Answer 4

I caught that story this morning on the Bash Bush Chanel (BBC). I thought the same thing when hearing about the black mailing boycott threat. Okay do it, so what!!!! We should not put our economy at risk because the EU wants us to. China won't sign it and with out them what would be the point.

Answer 5

You said it all, Brother!! It's time to kick the UN out...they hate America but love the amenities!! There is a report about it...just type EU to boycott Climate talks in a search engine...you'll find it.

Answer 6

Well said.
When we have to pay most of our income in taxes to pay for all the new environmental policies and everything we buy costs five times as much as it does now because companies have to pass the cost of "being green" on to the consumer, maybe people will realize, it's not pollution control, it's people control.

Answer 7

My background is designing and creating emissions for economy and development.

These emissions aren't just a contributor to global warming, they are poison. How many of you would put your family in a garage or closed building with the car running? None because it would kill you.

The atmosphere is the garage of the world and we need it or we die. All countries have borders, we are all dependent on each other atmospherically and for the water that circulates the world. Here is an example. This is a link to the oil spill in Korea and they are talking about the disaster. http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/12/13/news/SKorea-US-Oil-Spill.php

That is in Korea and affects the entire world, we eat it and drink it.

The EU has every right to be anxious about North American economy. It is like me doing work in your garage with the car running, I hope I can create some economy before this kills somebody. All we have done with our lack of leaderhip is strip the earth and sell it as development, economy without even considering the poison. How do you become a super power? Lots of economy, lots of taxes so we can build lots of stuff including more war weapons.

We have weakened the professional gene pool so that objective decisions in the best interests of the public aren't made. Our survival as a species is what is at stake here and we need leadership that understands drinking toxins is a death sentence for babies.

I am a nationally certified professional reporting to Canada's leadership that UV was interacting with development and buildings generating extreme heat. Municipalities couldn't see the heat generation so we are reacting to the symptoms with air conditioning.

Air conditioning is a very good name but it is really the same refrigeration you are using for cold storage. The refrigerants deplete the ozone and increase UV so this cycle continues.

It takes lots of electricity to run air conditioners so coal burning plants or others burn dirty and produce emissions. The sulpher dioxide ends up as acid rain and it falls from the sky and makes it difficult to live. The EPA just settled a lawsuit for hundreds of millions because of acid rain in the northeast.

North American leadership doesn't have one hour of emissions background, they just watch the money roll in. The EU needs to kick us in the butt, we are their children and we are living a lifestyle we can sustain because of our disrespect for the basics that sustain my life as well as yours.

Our poisons are in their water and theirs in ours, we need to stop it.

Our air and weather changes affect them as well.

This isn't progress. I reported to the Canadian Environment Minister that UV was causing extreme problems because of the finishes we are using for development. I reported Canada and others are producing massive emissions treating the symptoms and could eliminate the emissions with the developer using the right paint or shade. I don't know why the minister wouldn't share that information with the UN Meeting in Bali, because the toxicity ratio in newborns is 100% before they take their first breath.

Go to http://www.thermoguy.com/globalwarming-heatgain.html and follow the links including the study on polluted newborns.

Look at the bigger picture, if your neighbor was pumping pollution into your air and water, would you attend a meeting while your neighbor denies they are creating a problem?

The EU is doing their job, Canada say pollute on, nothing wrong here. All of the celebrity environmentalists need to just stick with promoting there is a problem and leave the science to the professionals trained in that field. This Co2 theory has to be put aside until you consider we are generating heat with development close to boiling temperature. That changes weather.

Do a search on the internet, it is cool to see Thermofrafix saving Al Gore with a twist. The junk science man put out a prize, they responded with this science. http://ultimateglobalwarmingchallenge.com/entries.htm

Your brothers and sisters need your help, why should it be the EU sticking up for North Americans?

Answer 8

i don't think the EU has ever threatened to boycott the current Climate Talks they are the ones normally saying that we all need to work together to solve the problem.

Answer 9

If you didn't care you wouldn't be whining about it.
