“I refuse to condemn your generation and future generations to a planet that is beyond fixing,” Mr Obama told students at Georgetown University. “As a president, as a father and as an American I’m here to say we need to act.” — Barack Obama

Of course, he has no problem condemning future Amerikan generations to a lifetime of slavery to the banker class.  Every child born in Amerika today starts life $70,000 in debt.

Funny how he’s so concerned about carbon dioxide, and yet a couple of years ago his EPA raised the acceptable levels of background radiation exposure.

All this hype over carbon dioxide and global warming is political posturing to come up with another way to further pick out pockets.

“So far, no one has been able to provide a compelling answer to why climate change seems to be taking a break. We’re facing a puzzle. Recent CO2 emissions have actually risen even more steeply than we feared. As a result, according to most climate models, we should have seen temperatures rise by around 0.25 degrees Celsius (0.45 degrees Fahrenheit) over the past 10 years. That hasn’t happened.” — German climate scientist Hans von Storch of the Meteorological Institute of the University of Hamburg
