CO2 Dress For Climate Change Success

Merry Christmas

So a bunch of Euro-Treehuggers (you remember Europe, that's where they cut down most of the trees long ago. No wonder they're so cranky.) designed this eco-dress. It tells when there is CO2 nearby. The more the carbon dioxide, the brighter the LEDs shine. Breath on it, and it lights-up.

No way could you wear this dress in Congress, it would blind everyone there.

Excuse me for not being very fashion conscience, but it looks like they took the drapes down and sewed some LED Christmas Tree lights on it.

Cuba Pissed-off at Obama Over Copenhagen

Monday, December 21, 2009

Havana- For over an hour today, Cuba’s foreign minister, Bruno Rodriguez lashed out at President Obama's behavior in Copenhagen. "At this summit,” the foreign minister said, “there was only imperial, arrogant Obama, who does not listen, who imposes his positions and even threatens developing countries."

Obama and the U.S. Government have lately been under increasing attacks from the communist island state. Rodriguez called the UN climate conference "a fallacy, a farce", insinuating the use of strong-armed tactics and backroom deals. He called these shenanigans “undemocratic” and “suicidal” as they only urge, but do not mandate major polluters to make deeper CO2 emissions cuts.

"Obama knew he was lying, that he was deceiving public opinion," Rodriguez said. This in response to comments Obama made during a news conference in Copenhagen, when Obama said no agreement had yet been reached but that he was confident one would be before the summit ended.

Rodriguez also stated Cuba and other developing nations are refusing to recognize the agreement because they weren't permitted to participate in its development.
