UN: Poor Need $86 Billion in Climate Aid
"The development panel says the greatest financial responsibility lies with
the U.S. and other rich nations most responsible for the accumulating carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere, mainly from man's burning of coal, oil and other fossil fuels." "We're suggesting 1.6 percent of (global) GDP - still very affordable," Kjorven said. "The countries of the world that are the principal culprits, if you wish, for creating this problem in the first place need to act strongly to safeguard the future of those that have done nothing to cause this problem but are the most vulnerable." http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5i...5_wKAD8T664JO0 |

They can get a lot of sand from all the bunkers in those damned NC golf courses. Some of them are ridiculous, especially Tanglewood. "Scientists predict that the buildup of carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere will lead to higher global temperatures. That warming will cause seas to rise faster and increase erosion driven by storms." (from your second site) Those guys must not have seen the 'hidden chart'. -- John H |

"Mallinson said that about 130,000 years ago, the shoreline was about where it is today. Then, polar regions grew significantly warmer for an extended period. Sea level rose 15 to 20 feet. All or parts of a dozen counties of present-day Eastern North Carolina were submerged, making areas of Gates and Washington counties beachfront." "Some evidence suggests it rose fairly rapidly up to the Suffolk shoreline," said Mallinson, a geologist at East Carolina University. "That is what we think may be beginning to happen today." See a pattern? |

I'm pretty sure neither of us ever said global warming wasn't happening, but don't let that little *fact* get in the way, ok? |

Hannity was carrying on about the global temp had only increased one degree in the last hundred years. Is there a base of historical data that both the believers and detractors can agree upon? You listen to Sean Hannity? Well, that explains a lot. |

Have you ever listened to talk radio? |

Have you ever listened to talk radio? Only on NPR, never on Faux or any stations that carry Faux feeds. The only "talk radio" show I listen to with any regularity is the Diane Rehm Show, which is probably the best talk radio show out there. I don't think I have ever heard talk radio I would actually plan on listening, even though Hannity tells everyone all he asks for is "3 hours a day, everyday". I have enjoyed many of the in depth interviews or subject reviews on NPR, but I only hear it if I happen to be in the car and I happen to hit the button for NPR. I only listen to NPR, if I plan on driving for a long time. Normally I don't bother to change the channel and it stays on the station that provides the best traffic updates. Last night, I had to change the channel. |
