Climate change should be the thing that we are all worried and concerned about as humans on this planet, how we affect the planet, our consumption, and how we treat the place that we live in.
will.i.am – Oxford University.
Seems like hypocrisy, but you would be wrong. Flying to a climate change debate in a private “hip.hop.copter,” burning “71.5 gallons of fuel, ploughing three-quarters of a tonne of CO2” for a 286 mile trip and preaching about, how we affect the planet, our consumption is actually OK:
…he’s committed to the issues and he’s written songs about it.’
So you see, it’s not what you do, it’s what you sing that counts.
Actually, isn’t it having a big f’in helicopter that counts?
Update: a small correction was made: quote was closed after the word CO2.

Global Warming, Going... Going... Gone Nuts For The Environment
Global Warming, Myles Allen, Oxford, will.i.am
I love Kate. There, I said it. It’s out there. I… Love … Kate.
There’s nothing more for it than to admit that up front. She has the best blog going, saying so much with one or two sentences, a subtle joke and a link. A video and a headline can say so much. And usually, she is right on top of things. And then there’s that picture of her working on a bike… in shorts…
This time, however, she is a year and a half behind the curve. And while it’s nice that NewBusters is on the environmental refugee non-event (“Rising sea levels, desertification and shrinking freshwater supplies will create up to 50 million environmental refugees…”), I was on top of this file in Dec, 2009, where I intoned, “… it’s going to be a hell of a month”
But unlike The Guardian or Al Gore, I provided actual evidence of my theory, proof that environmental refugees were real and living among us. Yes, in December 2009, I ran Environmental Refugee Week. Here was my list of environmental refugees:
- Sarah Palin
- Sanata Claus
- The Phoenix Coyotes
- Barack Obama
It’s lonely at the bottom, but when your other true love can’t hear you yelling up to her on her pedestal, it makes for a long, cold 17 months. Thank God I had climate change to keep me warm.

Hey Osama, that’s not global warming…
That’s the Americans knocking on your cave door.

Does anybody remember when this guy was going to kill us where we live? Now he’s going to short our dollar and tax our carbon.
I guess it’s safe to say without being accused of hyperbole, if you impose cap and trade the terrorists have won.

Desertification. 
You’ll hear that phrase a lot as you start to meet the environmental refugees. Phoenix, a mere 350 miles from the Pacific Ocean is experiencing desertification. So close to all that potential precipitation, yet Phoenix gets an average 8.3 inches. There is only one explanation: global warming. Disagree if you want, but with an average daily temperature of 72 degrees (106 in July), what else can you call that but warm?
To play hockey you need one thing, ice. To make ice you need two things, water and cold. Phoenix has no water and heat. What’s a hockey team to do? Move to Hamilton, that’s what. So prophesied Billionaire Jim (Moses) Balsillie, who decided to buy the Coyotes and lead them out of the desert. Sadly, the Coyotes belong in the National Hockey League, which is run by some serious science deniers – of both the dismal science of economics and the fake science of global warming.
Balsillie saw the future, and it was desertification. Thus Hamilton was a judges ruling away from being home to the first environmental refugee hockey team in global warming history.

What’s the biggest story of the decade?
After Sept 11, 2001, possibly the biggest story is right under their nose, spiting their face. After many of the worlds economies reorganized, taxed breathing or set up brand new markets for exhaling and farting, the science behind global warming turns out to be fraudulent.
I know they have a vested interest in ignoring this story (that much has become obvious the last four days), but maybe if a big whack of people tell them they consider it a big story, it will occur to them to report it.

PS – If you ask someone the top five stories of 2000 – 2010 and Sept 11 doesn’t even make the list, can that person be considered qualified to comment on anything?
The Great Global Warming Swindle

means having the freedom to do your job without interference, not without effort:
Prime Minister Stephen Harper urged journalists to “shine light into dark corners” of government affairs during a speech late Saturday, but wouldn’t take questions from reporters covering the event…
Freedom for Canadians goes hand-in-hand with journalistic freedom, he told the dinner guests gathered at Seneca College in Markham, home to thriving Asian communities.
Members of the ethnic press and their readers understand what it’s like in countries where “truth is only what the state says it is” and journalists are co-opted as government mouthpieces or threatened with their lives, Mr. Harper said.
So the story is, he doesn’t really believe in freedom of the press because he didn’t take questions.
But lets face it, why should anybody make their job easy? Even when possibly the biggest story in years is handed to them on a silver platter, they don’t report it.
If your not up to speed on the global warming scientists fudging the science, Small Dead Animals has been as good as anybody on this story, and the only credible media outlet in Canada covering it.
