http://madeinalberta.ca/climate-talks-part-one-flash.shtml
The world is meeting in Copenhagen in early
December for the latest in a twelve-year quest for an international
agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and stop global warming.
Whether you believe in climate change science or not, these events
signal permanent changes - already underway - involving energy, economy,
environment and human rights. This week, in the first of a special
series for this important time in history, Barb Allard explores “Climate
Talks”.

... but only if you are deathly allergic to common sense. This YouTube

all, watch how YouTube is leveling the playing field for quality
content.

Barb’s Field Notes: Climate Talks
I
received emails requesting more information about Edmonton and renewable
energy bylaws. I will let you folks know as soon as I can. In the
meantime, please stay with us even if you are a non-believer in climate
change. There’s plenty of good reasons to support and work for the
solutions. A global economy based on values of conservation and respect
for nature and each other; a high-tech society powered mostly through
renewable energy - that’s not so bad, is it?
