“Relationship between CO2 and global warming hardly measurable” – US SenatorEven if all developed nations restricted their CO2 emissions, it would only reduce the temperature by 0.07 degree Celsius by 2050 – that’s not even measurable, US Senator Jim Inhofe told RT, citing scientist Tom Wigley. |
Having living in America over 20 years, still having there some very sincere and honest friends, I am still well informed. Consequently, I wrote, right from the beginning what to expect and the whole scenario which made the Obama-election possible. N-PiPO is no worse than any other president; he is just a pawn of that cynical US system. Like our machiavelic french president, he is the product of the marketing and communication's industries. We can elect any "guignol" that we want; if we don't do a real audit of the situaion and change the whole system, nothing will improve. Sadly, we must admit that there are identical problems in many places. When, will a good example shows up !!! For laugh ! Sarkozy saved the World from a third World-War, in Georgia, then E-U from collapsing, when he was its president; then, the capitalist system during the financial fiasco, he is still convinced that Copenhagen, was a succes. This time, he saved the whole planet (Naturaly, according to his prostitutes french medias). Is-it the kind of politicians that we deserve. There is something wrong with the priorities and selecting process; not only in France (Look at the Copenhagen conference's mess. Then we will have Bonn, Mexico. For what !!!) Sorry Future Generations ! Sincerely...Jean-Claude Meslin
Peaceful NO, Corrupt Yes!
