Global Warming and the Iraq War : Climate and Capitalism

• # Just the $600 billion that Congress has allocated for military operations in Iraq to date could have built over 9000 wind farms (at 50 MW capacity each), with the overall capacity to meet a quarter of the country’s current electricity demand. If 25% of our power came from wind, rather than coal, it would reduce US GHG emissions by over 1 billion metric tons of CO2 per year – equivalent to approximately 1/6 of the country’s total CO2 emissions in 2006.
• # In 2006, the US spent more on the war in Iraq than the whole world spent on investment in renewable energy
• etc...

nzclimatescience.net - CLIMATE FACTS TO WARM TO

Duffy asked Marohasy: "Is the Earth stillwarming?"

She replied: "No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what youd expect if carbon dioxide is driving temperature because carbon dioxide levels have been increasing but temperatures have actually been coming down over the last 10 years."

Duffy: "Is this a matter of any controversy?"

Marohasy: "Actually, no. The head of the IPCC Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has actually acknowledged it. He talks about the apparent plateau in temperatures so far this century. So he recognises that in this century, over the past eight years, temperatures have plateaued ... This is not what youd expect, as I said, because if carbon dioxide is driving temperature then youd expect that, given carbon dioxide levels have been continuing to increase, temperatures should be going up ... So its very unexpected, not something thats being discussed. It should be being discussed, though, because its very significant."

Banks Urging U.S. to Adopt the Trading of Emissions - New York Times

Banks Urging U.S. to Adopt the Trading of Emissions - New York Times

La messe est dite. La mode du "global warming" n'a rien à voir avec l'écologie, c'est un business. Les écologistes d'aujourd'hui, ceux qui ne sont pas tombés dans le panneau, ont tout à refaire... C'est la pollution qu'il faut combattre, pas le climat... Mon opinion.

PARIS, Sept. 25 — A group representing some of the world’s leading banks will urge the United States and other industrial nations this week to move quickly to introduce a lightly regulated system for trading carbon emissions permits.

Permit-trading systems offer banks a potentially vast new business.
