POPSBritain's Lord Monckton Warns About Dangers of Climate Change Treaty - Video 10/30/09
Bolton thinks the treaty is dangerous, but is not prepared to go as far as Monckton yet. But he said it does have the potential to do great damage. Even if Obama signs it, it would require a two-thirds vote of the U.S. Senate to ratify the treaty and make us bound to the terms. Fascinating discussion. The Amazing Story Behind the Global Warming Scam By John Coleman January 28, 2009 (Revised and edited February 11, 2009) Back in the 1960s, this global warming research came to the attention of a Canadian born United Nation's bureaucrat named Maurice Strong. He was looking for issues he could use to fulfill his dream of one-world government. Strong organized a World Earth Day event in Stockholm, Sweden in 1970. From this he developed a committee of scientists, environmentalists and political operatives from the UN to continue a series of meetings. Strong developed the concept that the UN could demand payments from the advanced nations for the climatic

POPSMajor nations drop goal of halving C02 more: The removal of a reference in the MEF draft to halving emissions by 2050 is a blow to efforts to secure a new U.N. climate pact in December. MEF nations account for 80 per cent of world greenhouse gas emissions, largely caused by burning fossil fuels. Last year the G8 outlined a "vision" of halving emissions by 2050, without setting a base year. Major developing countries did not sign up for a 2050 goal, arguing the rich first had to set deep cuts in their own national emissions by 2020. A draft G8 statement seen by Reuters today agreed the rise on global temperatures should not exceed 2 degrees Celsius. That would mark a breakthrough by EU states in convincing the United States, Japan, Russia and Canada that a 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) limit is the necessary threshold beyond which climate change will reach danger levels. G8 leaders meet later today.

POPSSchnitt's Global Warming Files Im tired of Al Gore and his potential ponzi scheme hes trying to pawn onto the world. Hes been busted with creating fictitious facts and images and perpetuating falsehood concerning the cause/effect of our existing climate cycle. And thats exactly what it is. No matter how HOT or cold, ITS a cycle. Not to mention theres only a politically driven scandle behind the assertion that Carbon c02 has anything to do with impacting Climate cycles. Heres 500 sources with more ;truth' than 'inconvenience'. Now look at that, Ill hold my breath waiting for the academy to ring my phone

POPSMicrobe-powered ‘fart’ machine stores energy A device that can both improve fuel cell technology and entertain 12-year-old boys. That's what I call the modern biathlon. All in all a very ingenious and creative way to use micro organisms for our benefit.

POPSNews Flash: Coal Still Causes Global Warming So what happens when someone like Joe Lucas says something as blatantly untrue as “I don’t know if Global Warming is Caused By Coal”? It makes everyone on the environmentalist side see red, get riled, and want to walk away from the discussion. It casts us back into a debate that we need to be past! Coal burning releases C02. C02 causes global warming. Hey Joe, Bush is no longer president. You can speak the truth now.

POPSLEED and the Standardization of Green Building LEED green building has come out with a new program for assessing green buildings. This is very helpful for green building practitioners as a whole. There needs to be a measure that can be applied across the board so that green buildings can be fairly assessed. So far LEEDS is probably the most international of building standards. Their new program seeks to take green buildings even more into the mainstream.

POPSLook To Mars For The Truth On Global Warming lasting some 50 years, after which temperatures will go up again. Because of the scientific significance of this period of global cooling that we're about to enter, the Russian and Ukrainian space agencies, under Dr. Abdussamatov's leadership, have launched a joint project to determine the time and extent of the global cooling at mid-century. The project will marshal the resources of spacecraft manufacturer Energia, several Russian research and production centers, and the main observatory of Ukraine's Academy of Sciences. By late next year, scientific equipment will have been installed in a space-station module and by early 2009, the space team will be conducting a regular survey of the sun. With the data, the project will help mankind cope with a century of falling temperatures, during which we will enter a mini ice age. "A global freeze will come about regardless of whether or not industrialized countries put a cap on their greenhouse- gas emissions."

POPSOceans are 'soaking up less CO2' This research is of great significance. If the rate of C02 absorption halved between 2000 and 2005, then, if the trend continues, the North Atlantic will cease absorbing carbon before 2010. The situation is unlikely to be better in the Pacific and the Indian Ocean with the fast growing CO2 emissions from China, India and South East Asia.

POPS 'Year Of The Liar' An Inconvenient Truth No one should have the audacity to bore Gore with scientific fact. While the distinction of the Nobel Peace Prize is becoming ever more dubious, the glowing Gore seems to have become a major inconvenience for Mrs. Bill Clinton. “And so, after the obligatory spasms of celebration and the equally obligatory gnashing of Rush Limbaugh’s teeth, will Americans finally get to enjoy one of the great spectacles in political history, as Gore’s ultimate honor levitates him beyond his leading rival, Hillary Clinton, and into the Oval Office, asks Time (In Partnership with CNN) scribe Eric Pooley. Americans who rue Hillary’s rise in presidential election polls will sleep sounder nights when hearing that Pooley said, “If Al Gore gets into the presidential race, I’ll eat my copy of An Inconvenient Truth. (The paperback, not the DVD).” If the book-eating Pooley is wrong and Al Gore dives into the presidential race as Savior of the Planet, there’ll be no peace on earth by this Christmas.

POPS Biofuels Making The Climate Worse The study comes amid an earlier research from Stanford university which showed Ethanol based fuels will lead to more respiratory-related death. The researchers used a 30 year period as they believed non-carbon based fuels will only be available after this time.
