Good! Give them hell Harper!
Listen to this guy (Lamumba Stanislaus) he's got it right. This (COP15) is a power grab, not environmental "peace" treaty.

 

Maybe we should start thinking about joining the European Union, be a nice way to distances our selves from you know who. 

"The Urban Heat Island effect on temperature records is real, despite what some people wish you to believe. Peter, a sixth grader, and his dad, thought so too, and take the data from NASA GISS and show in a simple video, what we’ve been saying for years here at WUWT. Urbanization, land use, and station siting matter.They used a simple pairing of rural and urban sites to show the differences. This shows why homogenization, which smears all the data from urban and rural sites together, is a bad idea, and gives trends that don’t exist in reality.

I like the ending where he says in the rolling credits “Peter’s dad is not employed or funded by any energy or oil companies”. It’s funny that they’d feel a need to say this. No National Science Foundation funding needed either."



We are being defrauded by the biggest scam in history 

@Judy Cross: The way that several respected climatologists have explained the analysis of global temperature to me, urbanization, etc, is taken into account and compensated for.

Here's a previously-unpublished quote from a conversation I recently had with David Barber, Canada Research Chair for Arctic System Science at the University of Manitoba. It's a little choppy, but you get the idea.


"Its not a trivial thing to try and get a global temperature. Just think about it: How do you measure that? Well nowadays, we can take climate reporting stations all around the world, we can take all of that data into a computer, and we can sum it for the world average. But then we have to compensate for certain things, like if the airport that is doing the reporting of a temperature is in a city that grew from 10,000 people to a million people. You have to take into account the fact that there is a whole bunch more asphalt there, and that asphalt is going to bias that temperature upwards, because the temperature has got a lower Albedo. So there will be a local warming effect. So what we have to make sure is what we’re measuring here is not industrialization or urbanization. What we want to be measuring is an independent measure of temperature. And so the temperature records that we use in climate analysis come from many different places and different groups organize and coordinate and test and intercompare these results with other ones. Some come from ships that are out in the ocean, some come from land. And they integrate these together. And there are many of these."


You can find the story that Barber appeared in here: 'With Copenhagen on horizon, Canadian scientists dispel myths of climate e-mails'. And another one here: 'Arctic sea ice still disappearing, new study finds'. 

Australia and New Zealand also show evidence of tampering with the land-based record, not just CRU. And what is always left out of Arctic melting stories is that it happens every 70 years and the last time was the 1920-1940 period.

"The general situation from the late 1910s to the 1940s is well illustrated by the annual temperature records from Spitsbergen, Angmagssalik, and Andenes (Fig. 4 to 6). They indicate a shift of the mean temperature level of approximately 1.5 to 3 degrees between the decade prior and after 1920, and that the period with an increased mean lasted until about 1940"

Ice levels are returning to "normal" after this generation's warming .

Copenhagen (COP-15) is not about climate change at all. It is about global governance; control over YOU and over the sovereignty of Canada. What it means, should we be stupid enough to sign this tyrannical treaty, is that Canada would be subject to laws, taxation, even patent law and lifestyle changes that are dictated to us by an unelected body of elite socialists. The Treaty mentions nothing about candidates, elections, voting or anything else democratic.

Is that what you really want? 

I am sick of this "Stephen Harper" character, or should I say "Stephen Harpy" the way he is sucking the life out of this country. If any of you feel the same join the protest: Vancouver 2010: Protest Harper's Embarrassing Policies - http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=234328346647
