Climate change is such a pressing, dangerous and universal threat that it should be made illegal under international law, a top barrister has told a conference of leading lawyers in London.
Philippe Sands QC, an international law specialist and Professor of Law at University College London, argued that the UN’s International Court of Justice (ICJ) should make it an “obligation under international law” to ensure that global temperatures never rise more than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
This would follow the precedent of a landmark decision in June this year by a Dutch court as a result of a case brought by a green activist group – the Urgenda Foundation – against the Netherlands government. The court ruled that the government must reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by much more than it had intended – by at least 25 per cent by 2020, relative to 1990 levels – in order to prevent possibly dangerous climate change.

All they care is that their models get the nod in court, even though that would be from both inertia and ignorance. If we can see marriage made into a wild card, there’s even worse insanity waiting in the wings.
Liberals - cages. Some assembly required. Before it’s too late.
They can’t even predict tomorrow’s weather and they want to convince us the climate is changing?
A renaissance of recognition of a capital-G God might help to that end.
Actually the goal of UN Agenda 21 is to reduce the human population to 500 million, meaning the have plans for the other 6.5 billion.
(But of course if that’s the ONLY reason you would care about capital-G God, then you’ve still missed the point.)
These ideologues may soon have to be taken of the board...if...
....I'll be self-editing a lot these next few months I see...
:-)
Oh that will be rich... who gets to be king, telling the rest of the people they need to commit demographic suicide if not actual?
Evil is THAT ambitious. Only a re-recognition of God will give humanity a footing sufficient to do something about it.
This ‘top international lawyer’ can go $%^&*(&%$%#$ himself.
It’s about their wanting to be king. It starts with excuses, that they want to do this good thing or that good thing, but in the end their bleeding hearts turn out to be so much mere rotten ketchup. They don’t really care, they just mindlessly emote.
And eventually will, however probably not until he’s @#$%^&!!’d a whole lot of other people.
If we use the middle age maximum that means we need to rise two more degrees to get to baseline. We are cooler today than in the middle ages. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!
When they eventually devolve the situation into the Fallout/Road Warrior scenario, they probably will forget all about that. They will be too busy trying to save themselves from raiding ferals.
The story of King Canute and the waves is a possibly apocryphal anecdote illustrating the humility of King Canute the Great, recorded in the 12th century by Henry of Huntingdon.
In Huntingdon's account, Canute demonstrates to his flattering courtiers that he has no control over the elements, by having his throne set on the beach by the sea shore and commanding the incoming tide to halt and not wet his feet and robes. Yet "continuing to rise as usual the tide dashed over his feet and legs without respect to his royal person. Then the King leaped backwards, saying: 'Let all men know how empty and worthless is the power of Kings (International Courts & Lawyers), for there is none worthy of the name, but He whom heaven, earth, and sea obey by eternal laws.'"

PS Foolishness seems to be eternal...
The person who says he has confidence that we can know what the global temperature was, to within a small fraction of a degree, thirty years ago (when the majority of measurements were taken by a human going out to a shed, squinting at a mercury thermometer and writing down what he thinks it says), is a liar or a fool.
agree
The same with:
Club of Rome
Population Bomb
Nuclear Winter
Global Cooling
Peak Oil
The Sky is Falling
Etc.
Etc.
And all the other hysterical liberal ‘control freak’ lies used to siphon money off fools and distribute it to corrupt liberal ‘scientists’ in the form of sucker grants.
I have a better idea, make stupidity illegal.
“the UN’s IPCC has over-estimated future global warming by as much as 10 times”
