UN scientists are to consider moves such as putting mirrors in space and sprinkling iron in the sea in an attempt to cut global warming, the head of the IPCC said. Speaking at the climate change conference in Cancun, Dr Rajendra Pachauri said the next report on global warming by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will not only look at the threat of rising temperatures but so-called "geo-engineering" options that could actually reverse warming.

Other options include artificial "trees" that suck carbon dioxide out of the air, painting roofs white to reflect sunlight and man-made volcanoes that spray sulphate particles high in the atmosphere to scatter the sun's rays back into space.

You just can't make this $h!t up!

And we the people are expected to pay for the stupidity at the same time they destroy our economy with their regulations.

Non-engineers instinctively know so much more than real engineers.

Especially if they work for a government, or, most holy of all, an NGO.

Rich, western elites head for air conditioned luxury hotels where they eat steak and lobster and discuss how wasteful and environmentally destructive everyone else is.

Professor Ogden Wernstrom already tried that

Is John Edwards representing the US at this thing?

Are they doing this to counteract the carbon black they sprinkled on the ice caps to reduce global cooling in the seventies?

I'm not kidding. They actually thought about doing just that.

Maybe we can get our narcicist in chief up there to preen himself in front of one of those mirrors, sans a space suit.

This is all a giant jerk-off session. You know, I know, and most importantly they know that no damn mirrors are going to be put up in space. All this is just an excuse to go to a nice resort and have a nice circle jerk about pure nonsense.

I don’t know about the rest of the country but here in Norhern CA we are experiencing record cold and more rain than I have seen in years. I guess we haven’t gotten the global warming message yet. My Grandson said this morning, after looking out at the frozen ground and our vehicles covered with frost, “I see we have had more global warming last night!”. We are seeing rain at least once a week and sometimes two or three days a week of rain. Unusual for this time of year. I have lived here since 1952 BTW.

They are out of their flippin’ minds.

So they are, and completely out of control. The latest UN brainwave here in Scandinavia seems to be handing the Viking sites over to the UN world heritage.

Won't help. The cancer needs to be removed.
