Geee Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Investors Business Daily: Flying under the media radar largely due to the ongoing Syrian crisis and other news, President Obama has in the past two weeks signed three multinational climate agreements aimed at limiting greenhouse gasses and dealing with rising sea levels. Meanwhile, elsewhere around the world, other countries are backing away from climate commitments. The Australian people elected a conservative government, in part, based on its promise to dump the country's carbon tax, along with other costly, ineffective measures targeting climate change. And the Kyoto Protocol's time has passed, with no backup plan to replace it. But how can these countries back away from climate-change legislation when scientists have told us that the world's ice is melting, hurricanes are multiplying, and temperatures are skyrocketing? Because year after year, the world continues to confound the climate sages and their models. Despite dire predictions of a total loss of ice in the Arctic by 2013, the Arctic ice cap grew by 60% over the summer of 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
