Climate Change And Live Earth

Live Earth ended a couple of days ago. The perceptive right wing wits sniped at it and Al Gore. Well done, right wing wits! Meanwhile, the western USA is melting and burning. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6286484.stm Buenos Aires sees rare snowfall Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires, has seen snow for the first time in 89 years, as a cold snap continues to grip several South American nations. "Temperatures plunged to -22C (-8F) in parts of Argentina's province of Rio Negro, while snow fell on Buenos Aires for several hours on Monday.

"Since the end of the Cold War, Canada's modest military and coast guard have only rarely patrolled its northern coast line. Now Prime Minister Stephen Harper says the time has come to re-assert Canada's claim to the north...And then there is the North-West Passage - the northern shipping route between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans that European explorers sought for centuries.

" It has been suggested that the Administration's recent court bow of the head in the direction of Global Warming was due to (1) Texas burning in 2006, and (2) Texas flooding in 2007. The boys in the backroom back at Crawford were getting hurt, so we saw a gesture. As far as proof, I have recently read some literature asserting that the case against cigarettes has not decisively been proven. Absolute Certainty is a goal that is rarely, if ever, attained. We shall change the name of Global Warming to something else, the righties will get on board, and we will do something, too late, but better late than never.
