More than five years after President Obama and other leaders agreed on a 2020 goal of raising $100 billion each year from public and private sources to help developing countries deal with climate change, the United Nations wants to see action.

Ahead of Earth Day on Wednesday, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is pointing to a meeting next month in New York where he says he will be looking for clear indications from governments and investors as to how the ambitious goal will be reached.

The head of the u.n. spank dee mon kee can kiss my ..... And the promiser in chief as well. Easy to promise other peoples money to these asshats. Time for the u.n. to pack up and move to some more impoverished city where they can really do, well, nothing as they do now. What a useless waste of our tax dollars. I want a candidate who will tell 'em to pack up and adios and no more money from us.

Come on, why not 100 Trillion? We have to do this at all costs right? Or the planet will turn into a great ball of fire? Polar bears will spontaneously combust?

How about telling him a resounding NO!
That's action, isn't it?
I don't see how all that money can do anything but lining pockets of UN mucky mucks while doing absolutely nothing for the climate.

$100 billion each year to make former UN Secretaries and other UN bureaucrats very rich men.

Has anyone figured out what the UN is good for? Other than big money scams I mean?

They can move to the countries where they set up rape camps and conduct wholesale extortion in exchange for food/medicine, etc....

THAT they’re proficient at.

If they move, they’ll be closer to their business interests!! :)

I think the global warming CO2 nonsense is a scam. Having said that china is spewing ridiculous amounts of pollution and it doesn’t stay within China. So I do agree that the world community does have to deal with specific countries that spew pollution at absurd levels that affect other countries. Unfortunately these bozo’s are going after CO2 and going after the wrong problem. also they are not even requiring China to do much anyway.

Good afternoon.

I like that pic.

Donate to FR if you support the First amendment.

Or the Second amendment.

Or the Third amendment (all N00bs, look it up, it is pertinent today).

I have got to get to the range...

"Come on, why not 100 Trillion?"

Come on, why not let them develop their economy the same way we did, by burning coal.

So what if Africa adds another 3 billion and Asia adds another billion to world population between now and 2100.

Yeah, 90% of which to go in the pockets of their cronies with kickbacks galore. What an enormous scam. Makes Corzine et al look like pikers.

I’ll give him 100:1 odds that most of the fund will be wasted pursuing a lie.

Oh - not the “action” he wants?
