Comments on: Hillary to India: Don't Err on Climate

Cites Mistakes Made by U.S. in Carbon Emissions; Expresses Solidarity with Victims of Mumbai Terror Attack

The scientific community has been sounding the alarm about global warming for decades. The Artic ice cap is melting, actual pictures and data are available. Yet, the few remaining followers of the neocon movement deny, deny, deny.

Whatever you do, wingnuts, don't let the facts get in the way. If you begin to think that maybe all the scientists might be right... hurry and tune in Rush.

China and India will follow where we lead. If we fail to lead, they will take the cue, and follow our lead also, toward a dark future if you ask me.

I guess Hilary wasn't content to alienate N.Korea & Iran the last time she visited Asia. Now this smart SOS, puppet on a string, is showing her true GW agenda. Threatening India, Pakistan & China with this phony GW scenario.

Guess its time again for N.Korea to lauch a few more missiles. China to threaten to replace the dollar & Iran to terrorize its people.

It would be great to see what would happen to this GW agenda if all the people & countries would just cut back on their spending & usage of consumable goods. Slow down or stop buying building materials, automobiles, borrowing from the outlaw lending banks, & mortgage companies. After all they say they are counting on we the people to borrow, spend & charge up our personal debt to bail out this world wide economy that's they put into recession. Does that make any sense? Sometimes the best buys or deals are the ones we don't make.

This hypocritical GW crowd has no problem with Obama destroying our land & wildlife enviroment to build, of all things, more highways. Destroying our forests to build more homes. Poluting our waterways with pharmaceutical wastes. Money talks, it don't sing and dance & it don't walk. It sad to say but its a joke but its happens to be on us.

"We acknowledge now with President Obama that we have made mistakes in the United States..."

Yes, with the election of President 0bama, we have made mistakes for which we will pay for decades, IF the country can ever pull out of the debt that he is handing us.

And as far as global warming goes, there is more and more evidence that the bulk of it is naturally occurring. Meaning that the draconian cuts in energy production will have virtually no impact (the "Cap and Trade" legislation, with its trillions of dollars of expenditures, is predicted to cut only .11 degrees Centigrade by 2100). There are a lot of other things that can and should be done with that money.

Even Rajendra Pachauri knows that global warming is a non-issue for India, so I give him credit for recognizing this fact. He does however, as a typical UN hypocrite, see that global warming is an issue for the USA and thinks we should cap our carbon while his country doesn't. Just another bought and paid for IPCC official... Give it up Hilary, there is no measured connection between CO2 and climate, never has been.

Hillary broke her elbow by leapfrogging over the truth with India over climate change and Honduras and numerous other garden spots across the globe. Is Hillary a licensed preacher or does just living in the governor's mansion in Arkansas qualify her as a preacher?

Is she Madeleine Albright, Part Deux?
Bad break, Mrs. Clinton.

I bet the world loves the message "don't make the same mistakes the USA did". What she is saying in reality is "We don't want you to have your own industrial revolution, just remain poor because it's better for the planet" I'm sure that message is popular.

We have released the same amount of CO2 in the last 150 years that it took nature 100 million years to fix by natural processes. So yes, plants will be happy, people, not so much. And it'll take 200-600 years to get what we've released out of the atmosphere by natural processes. In the meantime...

If you are a conservative Republican, your chance of thinking Global Warming is human caused is 21%. If you are a scientist, any kind of scientist, Republican or otherwise, its 84%.

Clearly, the reason conservative Republicans don't think GW is real is political. Scientists, being scientists, find it much harder to dismiss hard evidence as there is for GW, despite their party affiliation.

Note I said scientists', not 'atmospheric scientists', or 'climatologists'. American scientists, in general, think Global Warming is real and human caused by a percentage of 84%. And they think GW is a 'very serious problem' by a percentage of 70%.

Conservative Republicans: As usual, bringing up the rear.

CarlR609 said: "India has over 70% poverty, millions of homeless and and hungry, yet somehow they're supposed to launch "dirty air" to the top of their priority list?"

Your chance of dying of lung cancer is twice as high in Los Angeles as it is in the rest of the nation. They may have a vested interest in keeping their air clean. Also, if Bangladesh goes underwater (as I think is all but inevitable no matter what anyone does now), where is that 100 million people going to go? India.

Naw, he's not there to take care of them. We are. That's what we're here for. Work, pay taxes, etc,etc.
As far as I'm concerned what he spots is the worse form of racism. Telling an entire population that they a not capable of doing for themselves.
