Devoted to Managers and those that seek to improve their management skills

The increasingly irrelevant Europe has been trying to keep itself important on the world stage by its so-called "leading" the way in the battle against their illusory bogeyman: "global warming." That's even after growing evidence its conclusions are based on faulty computer models, as revealed recently by the NASA Agua satellite, which has blown apart the alleged science behind the global warming farce.

Not only is global warming not proven, those who have embraced it like a religion keep going on with it, even after the devastating trail left behind from the usual "unintended consequences" associated with government-sponsored do-gooders.

Now the new obsession with biofuels is causing starvation across part of the planet, and riots are breaking out all over the place.

Jean Ziegler, UN Special Rapporteur for the Right to Food, blasted the European snobs saying, "the production of biofuels is 'a crime against humanity' because of its impact on global food prices."

High Cost of Goverment Subsidies and the usual "Unintended Consequences"

He added the European Union's subsidizing of its agriculture exports to Africa has been destructive to African farmers. He said: "The EU finances the exports of European agricultural surpluses to Africa ... where they are offered at one half or one third of their (production) price. That completely ruins African agriculture."

The response of the EU Commission was to simply reject the admonition of Zeigler.

One EU official said, "'You can't change a political objective without risking a debate on all the other objectives,' which could see the EU landmark climate change and energy package disintegrate." 

Another said there was no way they were going to suspend the target goals associated with the package.

I guess we don't want to upset Europe's climate change and energy package, even if it destroys the lives of people across the world.

Unless you think this is being dramatic, numerous countries like Egypt, Indonesia, Cameroon, the Philippines, Ethiopia, Madagascar and the Ivory Coast, among a number of others have all experienced protests and riots because of their either not being enough food, or the costs too high for the people to buy.

All this to get their arbitrary number of 10 percent emmissions from autos reduced by 10 percent, even after it has been proven that since 1998 the weather has been dropping in temperature, rather than rising, and the computer models used to project global warming are completely faulty.

Europe evidently doesn't care. Like Al Gore, they've staked their reputations, importance and legacy on making this work. And it seems they don't care what it costs human beings.

They've also brought up the hypothetical arrival of a new generation of sources for biofuels like algae from ponds, leaves and straw. But as French Ecology Minister Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet said, "That will take 10 to 20 years." The damage and destruction of life during that time will be extraordinary if this madness concerning biofuels isn't stopped.

Even the European Environment Agency, which advises the European Commission recommended that the EU drop the 10 percent target of biofuels. It refused the advice.

Nestle's  Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, also brought up the harm subsidies are doing in relationship to biofuel production, calling it "morally unacceptable and irresponsible."

With food costs rising the fastest they have in 17 years, the Bush administration needs to hold to its guns with their resistance to this nonsense, and refuse to cap greenhouse gases.
 
The reason the pressure is being exerted so strongly, is because global warming, along with biofuels, is coming under increasing scrutiny, and many scientists and meteorologists are challening the faulty "science" behind it.

Advocates of all the regulations in relationship to global warming and its daughter ethanol, know that public opinion is changing, and it won't be long before the truth is discovered behind all this. This is why the fear-mongers feebly attempt to convince those not familiar with these matters that the world will end if we don't do something in the next few months. We can't wait even a year, they tell us.

The truth is: yes we can. As a matter of fact we can wait much longer than that. As I said earlier, global warming hasn't been happening for ten years, and advocates of global warming have admitted it, as the world continues to cool.

The reason they're pushing so hard now is to try to get their agenda into law, which once there, is almost impossible to get changed.

Think of the 30 million Africans that died because the zealots - influenced by the horrid book, "The Silent Spring," by Rachel Carson - shut down the use of DDT to fight Mosquitos, which causes Malaria. About 30 million deaths later they quietly reintroduced it into Africa so as not to accept the responsibility and blame for the carnage and holocaust that followed.

At least the Europeans didn't suffer from it.

The high cost of ethanol is already revealing itself, and that's after a relatively short time. Even that is based on a lie, as "Peak Oil" at this time is a huge myth, as billions of barrels are available for extraction, and new methods of finding oil ending in new discoveries of billions of barrels.

In other words, we have plenty of time to work this out, and there is no need to allow those with hidden agendas to press us into laws related to global warming and biofuels which destroy human lives. That's what's already happening, and politicians are just getting going.
