The sheet under the UN heading is a vote for GW. “Idiots” is right.

I’m not worried anymore about Global Warming.

George W. Bush is going to start WWIII and there will be a nuclear exchange that will kill us all first.  Because he’s an evil insane fool.

But God’s on his side…

I don’t understand the theology: if you ACT to bring about Armageddon, isn’t God going to see you as a sinner and evil?

Australia’s prime minister Howard’s excuse (another Neocon) is that they won’t sign on to the Kyoto accord on climate change because it wouldn’t make any difference if China, India and the USA don’t.

Conversely, if and when China, India and the USA ever do, Australia still won’t because “it wouldn’t make any difference...”, uhh. But they do want to replace their coal-fired power stations with nuclear....!!!

A famous saying “You don’t need a weatherman to tell you which way the wind is blowing”, so accouring to a PBS program on Global Warming made the statement do you look out the window or listen to the weathermen who are saying that man does not play a significant part in what is happening, does the world wait to see if this is true.

Something is happening, in China there are no bees due to air pollution, so men do the thing that bees can do better, can the same thing happen in the United States, the air quality here is better than China, but the winds do blow across the Pacific and soomer or later things are going to catch up with us.

We do not pollute with manufacturing because everyting that is manafactured is made in China.

Of course our children can have toys that are painted with lead paint, our food is not safe anymore, so do we listen to the weathermen on T.V.?

This is really funny! It’s hard to believe some people can ignore climate change like this.
