Don't Be Fooled By "Chicken Little"

It would appear that the leaders of the European Union have come to agreement that the 1997 Kyoto Protocol must be implemented or we will have world wide catastrophe. Even Governor Arnold Schwatzenhager and Treasury Secretary nominee Henry Paulson are lobbying world wide for President Bush to sign on to the Kyoto protocol. The problem with all this rhetoric is that many scientist including Stavros Dimos Commissioner for the EU Environmental Council say that the Kyoto protocol will not stop the air from being polluted.
The reason for this is despite the fact that both Countries have rapidly growing economies due to the transfer of jobs and industries to their Countries. China and India who are exempt from controlling their emissions, will produce more CO2 gases than the rest of the world by 2020.


China is building coal powered energy plants at a rate of 500 every few years. They have over 2 million cars and trucks in Beijing powered with diesel engines that cause it to be one of the five most air polluted Cities in the world. Five of the top ten cities that have pollution unhealthy to the residents that live there are located in China.


Left wing groups like the "Natural Resources Defense Council" allege that 75% of the green house gases come from the U.S. This is just blatant untruth! Their claim that China has reduced their emissions by 17% since 1997 is also a lie.


Even The environmental expert , Chen Bengzhu, who serves on the Beijing Parliamentary Council, says that Beijing has a "dome of pollution" containing unheard of proportions of nitrous oxide caused by the 2 million cars, cement plants and construction vehicles. 400,000 Chinese die each year from air pollution causing diseases. And we plan to send an Olympic team there. Better issue them oxygen masks!
A swim in the Yangtze river once made famous when Chairman Mao took a swim in it. Is now so polluted a swim would be considered an act of suicide.
"More than 2/3rds of China's rivers and lakes are "turning into sewers", says Mr. Chen Bangzhu.

In the background, and barely mentioned in the news, are two facts that would, if they were widely circulated, change the rush to "Kyoto" . William Ruddiman, a professor at the University of Virginia, has published a paper that basically says the green house gases are the result of methane production. Methane is produced by all herbivores such as cows, sheep and other farm animals. Farmers also use animal fertilizer in many of the worlds "third world"agricultural producing countries that give off methane. Scientific measurements show that the production of methane gas has increased 149% over the years.

This blogger believes that the leaders of this environmental quest are anti-capitalist Marxists who have chosen a new religion to replace their beloved Marxist Socialism.
It is "the environment movement", they are using it to destroy their hated enemy the Capitalist American society. With so many people deluded by false information and alarmists like Al Gore running around yelling "the sky is Falling". Is it any wonder that well meaning people ,especially politicians have stepped in line to support this unproven theory
The second little publicized cause is the change in solar emissions from the sun. Even the ice circles surrounding Mars have been deteriorating from the suns emissions.
