KATOWICE, Poland (AP) — As leaders attending the U.N.’s annual climate summit heard fresh warnings about the dire consequences of leaving global warming unchecked, a new issue emerged Monday as a pressing concern: how to persuade millions of workers their industry can’t have a future if humanity is to have one.

Hosting the talks in the heart of its coal region of Silesia, Poland tried to set the tone for the two-week meeting by promoting the idea of a “just transition” for miners and other workers facing layoffs as countries adopt alternative energy sources.

“We are trying to save the world from annihilation, but we must do this in a way that those who live with us today in the world have the best possible living conditions,” Polish President Andrzej Duda said. “Otherwise they will say, ‘We don’t want such policy.’”

I am sure the attendees all rode bicycles to get to the conference? Fight climate change by doing your part not by forcing me to support you and the “scientists”.

“We are trying to save the world from annihilation, but we must do this in a way that those who live with us today in the world have the best possible living conditions,” Polish President Andrzej Duda said.

The fuss is all about the scientifically weak connection between global warming and mankind's production of carbon dioxide, and the assumption that the Earth is experiencing a warming trend.

The science of global warming is far from settled. In fact, we may be on the cusp of global cooling.

The politically motivated propagandists (masquerading as scientists) discount the role of the Sun on climate change. They spend all their time bending data that supports their hypothesis that mankind is evil, and can only be saved by godless socialists.

Huh ? Dude is basically telling them (in a politically correct manner) to shove it up. While Arnold is all over the place with usual nonsense.

After the fiasco of an election they pulled in California, I doubt if any of those fruitcakes will get much support from real American Patriots.
