Move Over Bernie Madoff, Here Comes Tony Blair

Al Gore isn't the only one poised to make a lot of money off the global warming scam, now Former British PM Tony Blair is set to make a bundle. That's why he is in Copenhagen pushing for a deal.

Is Blair trying to cash in on climate change?: Ex-PM arrives at summit to urge greenhouse gas deal

"But his appearance will raise suspicions that he is planning to cash in on global warming.

It comes just weeks after he registered the internet name 'Low Carbon Capital Fund' - thought to be a way of making money out of the demand for green technology."

And here:

"The speech came at the launch of a report from Mr Blair and the international lobby organisation The Climate Group.
The group - which works with more than 50 international companies, including BP, Coca-Cola and Nestle - supports the idea of issuing bonds to green-minded investors"


Follow the money folks! It's all about the money not the environment.

Does the Media Make You Feel Like a Failure re Global Warming?

Robert Fulford in the National Post explains how the media in particular has been trying to shame us for our failure in doing nothing on the so called global warming.

"Apparently, Canada had not reached the standards expected by a UN member. On about a dozen occasions, the CBC told me that our abysmal failure had made people elsewhere consider us the world’s moral sinkhole. As late as Thursday morning, a CBC radio host reminded me that among countries ecologically in the know, Canada is considered “public enemy number one.”

And this about the Red Star non-sense,

"Through this process, the Toronto Star kept its readers on top of what the Star considers should be the national mood. Star editors, understandably, were almost paralyzed with grief over our nation’s carbon emissions failure and our unfortunate reputation."

It's the media who should be ashamed for trying to make me feel ashamed for being an environmental villian.

Christie Blatchford Smacksdown Fellow Journalists

Christie Blatchford in her column today in the Globe and Mail smacksdown her fellow reporters who crucified her for this earlier piece, on the Afghan prisioner abuse fiasco. Here's what she had to say:

"I am not one of those smart Ottawa reporters who, having suffered through too many Question Periods, know what constitutes torture better than anyone else. Nor am I a mandarin, politician or aide, all of whom have endured the same, plus the practice of jackal journalism, which is what the modern game has become.

So perhaps, when such good people raise their voices, as they did this week, and cry "Torture! Cover-up! Bombshell!", I should simply defer to their greater collective wisdom and yield the floor.

Alas, I am constitutionally unable. Also, for the most part, I think they're blowing smoke out their bums. Besides, since Parliament has now ordered the government to produce thousands of uncensored documents on Afghan detainees, it seems clear that whether officially or through leaks, many of these documents over the coming weeks and months will one way or another be making a public appearance"

To that I say thank-you Christie Blatchford! We need more journalists with the guts like her to report the facts and the truth. I suggest we all email her and tell her thank-you. If you want to contact her, here's how you can do it.
