Do some research sheople... humans are not a geologic force.
That's right! Act boldly and tell all of these hoax peddlers who are using the man-made global warming hoax as an excuse to strangle the American economy and captialism to take their stupid little HYPOCRITICAL conference and shove it! I'm ashamed that the leadership of my country were even there. WHAT A BUNCH OF FEAR-PEDDLING, AMERICA-HATING PHONIES!!
When everything's a crisis, nothing's a crisis.
I wish that he would EVER get his priorities straight. What a President we have, he is an idealistic, socialist who claims to have keen insight and amazing intellect. Yeah right.
Ho Ho Ho.. didn't you know? Our President is a big BOZO!
Act boldy, commit to billions more in US spending, defend the hoax. We're in bad shape......
Please be bold in NOT acting!
After revelations of lies in the argument for global, uh, climate change, we don't needed anything enacted boldly, and certainly not quickly.
Just tell Mr. Gore that he has already made enough money off this scheme–or just say no.
President Obama is right on this; we need to act boldly on this issue. The environment affects all 6.7 billion of us everyday, and the consenquences here could not be more clear. If we act now, and make the necessary sacrifices in the short and medium term, the long term environmental future will be better for future generations to come. If we decide to choose inaction, and make no necessary sacrifices short and medium term, the long term environmental future for future generations will be very slim to none. If I have to make some financial sacrifices to ensure that my children will live in a better Earth in the future, that is a sacrifice I am willing to make. What do you choose, and are you willing to make the necessary financial sacrifices to ensure your children live in a better Earth? The choice is yours, but I already know what my choice is.
My beloved country is guilty for not having done enough about curbing emissions (and the previous 8 years under "President Cheney" – and things probably got much worse).
However, China MUST act, India must jump in, Brazil must STOP its ridiculous destruction of the rain forest. If not, maybe it's time to invest in companies that should benefit from "massive evacuations" of coastal areas.
