I am hoping that Zeebadee can explain the ‘science’ that justifies a belief in ‘global warming’, particularly the so-called ‘greenhouse effect’ which contends that the gaseous products of fossil fuel combustion by humans will cause the Earth’s surface and atmosphere to heat up. I recently read ‘The Greenhouse Effect’ by professors Ann Henderson-Sellers and Russell Blong of Macquarie University, and while it was entertaining because of the naivety of its assertions, assumptions and errors, I could find very little ‘science’ in it.
Whether the earth is getting cooler or warmer is the point, because it is to ameliorate the supposed effects of the alleged cooling/warming that people are being asked to abandon national sovereignty and national constitutions and accept the overlordship of yet another global Bureaucracy.

The 18th World Energy Congress (sounds impressive doesn’t it) recommended:
1) Binding emission limits per country
2) Enhance international environmental law.
3) Establish an international climate agency
4) Establish standards under which a law suit can be brought forward.
5) Establish sanctions for non-performance.
( http://www.worldenergy.org )

The political consequences of an acceptance (or enforcement) of these recommendations are enormous and self evident. Developing countries would be forbidden to use cheap and accessible energy supplies to lift themselves from poverty. The congress envisages and increasingly greater reliance on ‘clean’ nuclear energy and I suspect herein may lie the true motivation for the ‘global warming awareness’ campaign. But nuclear energy is a one-way path that though profitable to a few, is very, very dangerous.
