...believe tourists would be ready to pay a little more to protect the places they love.

Science-challenged and ignorant journalists just don't get it. The half-life of CO2 in the atmosphere is estimated to be several hundred years. If the human race stopped all emissions of CO2 tomorrow, we'd still have elevated levels of CO2 for centuries. And we'd all be living in mud huts, walking, growing our own gardens, lighting candles at night, and dying at about 35 years due to malnutrition and lack of medicine.

All the feel-good panaceas pitched by the hucksters will have as much effect on global temperatures as pissing in the ocean has on sea level.

All I ask is that you let me have my trip to Italy and then you can take away my vacations forever. I swear it.

After he's traveled light years to get to this planet you can't expect him to sit still.

One can hope he will just shut up and maybe global warming might slow down if he did...Did you see Glen Beck last night?

the pristine but low-lying Maldive islands in the Indian Ocean may disappear

I've been hearing about the fricking Maldive Islands for about ten years now. Haven't they made any progress yet? I was hoping for some neat TV coverage of when they sank. This rising sea level stuff is a really boring wait.

They're still sticking up there. Somebody go shoot an elevation on them and see if they're rising or falling.
