Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen
Friendly old girl of a town
'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen climate change summit
A note to Barrie Harrop at climate change Copenhagen
Barrie, at this stage, the existence of serious verifiable data is very much in question. There is so much out there indicating that there is no basis for a conclusion, let alone anything on which to base intelligent policy.
I know, your reply will probably not be pleasant, but the fact of the matter is, the whole discussion about thisvery complex issue has been corrupted, probably by the quest for power, sad to to say. Point to whatever you want to, the question remains the same in the minds of most, what was the motive behind the conclusion? The facts, if not demonstrated in total, will not matter.
No one in their right mind can support any policy as disruptive, managed by government or influenced by an NGO, or GSE, under the circumstances. Trust is the issue Barrie, and we here in the US don't trust our politicians, or any group demanding change in the way your side is.
Those of us with any knowledge of history know that a government policy, no matter how wrong that policy turns out to be, is very hard, if not impossible, to reverse. We also know that freedom surrendered is freedom lost. The consequences are just to great.
I wish it were not so. I think I can speak for most in saying that we wish, for just once, that we could trust political leaders, but the fact is, we can't. It is unfortunate that your community attempts to force a politcal solution, rather than persuade, but that is the MO we have to deal with, the world over.
But I have to hand it to you, you are commited. I do not question your integrity, but pelase forgive us if we do not agree. The question we all have is why? Is it true conviction based on science, political power, financial?
The unfortunate fact for the world is, we can't be sure.
The burden of proof is on your side, your cause. It is not there. That is the cost of mixing politics with science.
