The upcoming United Nations environmental conference on sustainable development ...

++++++++++

It is worth noting for those who may not have noticed that "Sustainable Development" is the designated replacement for "Climate Change" which was the designated replacement for "Global Warming".

No Taxation Without Representation!
Which in this case translates to NO TAXATION!
The UN's ambition to become a world government must be stopped.
The EU disaster is only a preview of what UN governance will be like.

Here is the idiots guide to Carbon Credits (As I explained to an envirowhacko who was extolling the virtues of carbon credits)

You want to reduce the globes carbon footprint to reduce pollition, correct?

Yes

You want to do it with carbon credits?

Yes

America produces 10 pounds of carbon. You with me?

Yes

So, America gets 10 carbon credits, right?

Yes.

Vietnam produces no carbon, right?

Yes

But Vietnam also has 10 carbon credits, correct?

Yes

So we pay Vietnam for their 10 carbon credits and America now has 20 carbon credits, correct?

Yes

And we now produce 20 pounds of carbon, correct?

Yes

And how does that reduce pollution?

Racist!!
