NEW YORK Tomorrow 56 newspapers in 45 countries take the perhaps unprecedented step of speaking with one voice through a common editorial. Many if not most will publish it on the front page, warning of a "profound emergency."

The Guardian of London, which helped draft the editorial, published it today, with a note at the end. Here it is. *

Unless we combine to take decisive action, climate change will ravage our planet, and with it our prosperity and security. The dangers have been becoming apparent for a generation. Now the facts have started to speak: 11 of the past 14 years have been the warmest on record, the Arctic ice-cap is melting and last year's inflamed oil and food prices provide a foretaste of future havoc. In scientific journals the question is no longer whether humans are to blame, but how little time we have got left to limit the damage. Yet so far the world's response has been feeble and half-hearted.

There are so few readers of newspapers that it makes little difference.

I remember when science was evaluated based on publicly available data and objective peer review. I miss those days. Today science is decreed by tyrants grabbing for more power and by editorial boards hoping to be given crumbs in return for their support.

At least we will know which 56 are true government propaganda machines

If they DO NOT cover the Climate-gate story, but can be made to run this ‘editorial’ then they can not be counted on for news ever again.

There's billions upon billions of commercial and private dollars at stake worldwide in the Great Global Warming Scam.

You can really tell by this joint editorial how desperate and terrified the leftist, criminal con-artist combine is that their walls may be tumbling down very shortly.

From the CRU data dump:

From: Phil Jones xxxxxxxx To: John Christy xxxxxxxx Subject: This and that Date: Tue Jul 5 15:51:55 2005 "The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998. OK it has but it is only 7 years of data and it isn't statistically significant."

No print edition paper I am aware of casts itself as “fair and balanced”.

If it’s in the newspaper it must be true.

If all of these newspapers had decided to go even ONE DAY without publishing -—

How much air and water pollution would have been avoided?

How much energy would have been saved?

-— Who cares about CO2? CO2 is NOT pollution!
