Copenhagen Conference

E-mail to Congress:

EIN News says, "At Least 60 Leaders to Attend Climate Conference. Prospects for a global deal at the climate change summit in Copenhagen next month have been given a boost after it emerged that more than 60 presidents and prime ministers plan to attend. Leaders from Britain, Germany, France, Spain, Japan, Indonesia and Brazil are among the latest to have confirmed that they will travel to Denmark on December 7 to attend the climate conference. (net.au)".

This is bad news. However, there are still some encouraging aspects. Notice that it is now a "conference", rather than a "treaty". Also while 60 leaders (presumably countries) are expected to attend, only seven are mentioned here. Presumably the US will attend and since the conference will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark will attend. This brings the total named attendees to 9. Who will be the other 51 attendees? I suspect it will be mostly African countries, who have previously tipped their hands by indicating they could be bought. They were holding out for a whole sack of money previously, but have apparently now decided that half a sack is better than nothing. The money is not expected to come from the named attendees. It is expected to come from the US. However, we are already broke. Will we go deeper into debt to redistribute wealth based on a myth of global warming caused by carbon dioxide emissions? Only Congress will be able to answer that one.
