The UN is at it again. Ban Ban

Now I am reading of the new UN U.N. Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, exhorting us to act on global warming, or face "oblivion." (Whatever that means.) He says:

"The situation is so desperately serious that any delay could push us past the tipping point, beyond which the ecological, financial and human costs would increase dramatically," Ban said in a speech to delegates. We are at a crossroad. One path leads to a comprehensive climate change agreement, the other to oblivion. The choice is clear."
Whatever. . . What about the "ecological, financial and human costs" of the Kyoto Protocol and those other cap-and-trade schemes that Al Gore and company (and I use that word on purpose) are promoting? They would set us back to the Stone Age.

My previous post of Friday, October 5, 2007 should be sufficient to answer his statement. Apparently the "oblivion" that he's so concerned about would be his bank account without the grundle-loads of money that the elite are set to make from their cap-and-trade schemes.

My request to my readers is this: Use your own mind, apply some critical thinking skills to this issue, seek out the information for yourself (from primary sources), apply a little logic, and make a your own decision. (This applies not only to global warming, but to most of the issues that face us today.)

On the other hand, if he means Oblivion, the game, then by all means, let's play! ;)

Sometimes, when the UN speaks, people laugh, but most of the time, they die.
