re: Story that Canada 'must act' to curb global warming (Sympatico / MSN)
Finally, our Prime Minister may have gotten the message. If he didn't get the message from his scientists, he might have gotten the message in yesterday's annoucement that humans are 'very likely' to have caused the average increase in temperature observed since 1750 (aka global warming). And if he doesn't act on that message, then I suspect, or rather hope, that the voters will remember.
I'm not optimistic that our present government will really do what is needed. I find it VERY hard to believe that our Prime Minister, who five years ago was dead-set against the Kyoto protocol and called it a "socialist agreement that would only suck money out of the world's wealthier economies" will turn around and embrace that environmental cause. Sorry, but that particular leopard will NOT change its' spots...
And if I thought all this was bad, but then a friend sent me a story which made it worse: it appears that scientists were offered money to "undermine" the climate change report published yesterday.
I'll have more to say about that when my blood pressure goes down...
