Hugo Chavez quotes and video at Copenhagen:

COPENHAGEN (YBH.ME) – Below are some of the more interesting quotes from Hugo Chavez's 20 minute speech at the U.N. Climate Change conference in Copenhagen today.

Mr. Chavez was warmly received and some of the quotes below received enthusiastic applause from the audience in the hall:

"If the climate was a bank [the west] would have already saved it."

"The destructive model of Capitalism is eradicating life"

"I don't think Obama is here yet. He got the Nobel Peace Prize almost the same day as he sent 30,000 soldiers to kill innocent people in Afghanistan.

"[Copenhagen is ] not democratic, it is not inclusive, but isn't that the reality of our world, the world is really and imperial dictatorship…down with imperial dictatorships"

"Our revolution seeks to help all people…socialism, the other ghost that is probably wandering around this room, that's the way to save the planet, capitalism is the road to hell….let's fight against capitalism and make it obey us."

Mr. Chavez reportedly received a standing ovation for his last remark.

Czarina Browner's EPA end-around on Congress as COP15 opening salvo

COP15 starts with a bang and tightly choreographed announcement from U.S. Energery Czarina Carol Browner's controlled U.S. EPA.  Greenpeace is urging the Emperor that it gives him justification to move ahead with a binding agreement at Copenhagen without Congressional Cap and Trade approval.

EPA: Greenhouse gases endanger human health

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091207/ap_on_bi_ge/us_epa_climate

WASHINGTON – Officials tell The Associated Press that the Environmental Protection Agency has concluded greenhouse gases are endangering people's health and must be regulated.


The EPA will announced its findings at a news conference Monday.
The announcement is timed to boost the Obama administration's arguments at an international climate conference — beginning this week — that the United States is taking actions to combat global warming, even though Congress has yet to act on climate legislation.


Under a Supreme Court ruling, the so-called endangerment finding is needed before the EPA can regulate carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases released from power plants, factories and automobiles under the federal Clean Air Act.

excerpt...
Climate activists in Copenhagen said the decision could help the Obama administration move ahead on climate policy without waiting for action from Congress.
"The question is will they use it that way, or are they using it as a bargaining chip to threaten action, and get Congress to act instead," said Damon Moglen, of Greenpeace USA.

U.S. Energy Czar Says Domestic Legislation Key to Cleantech

http://cleantechbrief.com/node/1145

December 7, 2009

On the eve of the UN climate summit in Copenhagen, U.S. Energy and Climate Change Czar Carol Browner told a DC conference that while international agreements are important, domestic climate change legislation is crucial to greater investment in clean technologies.


Speaking at the Innovation Economy Conference in Washington, DC, Browner said:
"We need to give the private sector rules of the road and standards so we can start to see investments. It's through comprehensive reform that we will send the right signals to investors."


Browner said companies need to know about new energy consumption rules and carbon reduction targets to manage their businesses, as do entrepreneurs planning to launch new and innovative cleantech ventures.


Browner said that about $80 billion in stimulus funding has been earmarked for green and renewable energy technology, and all programs supported by these funds have been oversubscribed.


"It shows the private sector is willing to make investments, but with the economic conditions and tight capital markets, we need to create an environment where there is a guaranteed return on those investments," she said. "We haven't quite gotten there yet."


Browner is the former head of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

C0P15 begins

Warm-mongers again stress false sense of urgency to push through psuedo-science that a warming trend exists and that man's carbon dioxide emissions is causing all glaciers to melt.  The giant sphere-shaped nuclear furnace is the sky probably is apparently a constant controlled temperature that could in no way lay to waste any plans of man to allegedly control 2 degrees celsius.

Czar Wars Casualties: Head of Climactic Research Unit at University of East Anglia

Fallout Over "ClimateGate" Data Leak Grows

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/12/02/taking_liberties/entry5860171.shtml

Excerpts:

Ripples created by the disclosure of global warming files now being called "ClimateGate" continue to spread, with congressional attention growing and the head of a prominent climate change group stepping aside.

Phil Jones, the head of the Climactic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, said on Tuesday that he will relinquish his post while the U.K. school conducts an investigation into allegations of scientific and professional misconduct.

...

The reverberations have extended beyond the campus of the University of East Anglia and the CRU. E-mail messages from Michael Mann, a professor in the meteorology department at Penn State University who has argued that mankind is threatening "entire ecosystems with extinction in the decades ahead if we continue to burn fossil fuels at current rates," appeared in the leaked files. Now Penn State has opened an investigation into Mann's work, and the U.K.'s weather agency has been forced on the defensive as well.

Czarina Carol Browner

http://biggovernment.com/2009/11/27/climate-czar-browner-what-conflict-of-interest/

Well, here's yet another thing the unconfirmable Obama "Climate Czarina" Carol Browner got around disclosing thanks to, and one more reason for being stuffed into, a position of influence through the backdoor of a phony job not subject to Senate confirmation, even while lording over Senate-confirmed constitutional officers:

She was on the board of one of the leading carbon offset trading companies, APX.

That makes for one really big conflict of interest in her role guiding the administration's efforts to regulate carbon dioxide and force emitters to buy CO2 ration-coupons.


So, add this to her work for the Albright Group which is "secretive about its clients" (SourceWatch), violating a federal judge's order to preserve documents by wiping computers clean while at EPA (sound at all relevant these days?), and her board membership for the Socialist International's "climate" project.
Other than those I can't think of too many reasons Obama wouldn't want her subjected to disclosure requirements and scrutiny.

CRU and IPCC "complete rubbish"

http://townhall.com/columnists/MichaelBarone/2009/11/30/global_warming_consensus_garbage_in,_garbage_out

Excerpt:

As Air Force One heads to Copenhagen for the climate summit Dec. 9, it will presumably not make a U-turn while flying over the Climate Research Unit (CRU) at University of East Anglia near Norwich, England. But perhaps it should.

The 61 megabytes of CRU e-mails and documents made public by a hacker cast serious doubt on the ballyhooed consensus on manmade global warming that the Copenhagen summit was called to address.

The CRU has been a major source of data on global temperatures, relied on by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. But the e-mails suggest that CRU scientists have been suppressing and misstating data and working to prevent the publication of conflicting views in peer-reviewed science periodicals. Some of the more pungent e-mails:

"I can't see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow -- even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!"

"Can you delete any e-mails you may have had with Keith re AR4?"

"I've just completed Mike's Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith's to hide the decline."

"The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty we can't."

 "I'm getting hassled by a couple of people to release the CRU temperature station data. Don't any of you three tell anybody that the UK has a Freedom of Information Act!"

You get the idea. The most charitable plausible explanation I have seen comes from The Atlantic's Megan McArdle. "The CRU's main computer model may be, to put it bluntly, complete rubbish."
