British just gave Democrats the best "November surprise"!
Following are links to the just released report by the British on the ECONOMIC dangers of global warming:

If Neocons want to use "terror" to sway Americans to vote Republican, then now Democrats have a real terror issue that should SCARE THE S... and catch the attention of even the staunchest Republicans for, this one, will hit them where most seem to care most about... in THEIR POCKETS.
Unfortunately for Republicans, most of their Congressional Representatives have been nothing but a "rubber stamp" for the Bush administration's dire policies for environmental protections - aligning themselves with corporate interests - the very same interests which are now at stake according to this alarming report.

WORLD WIDE CALAMITY PREDICTED BY BRITISH
LONDON -- Britain issued a report yesterday warning the Earth faces a calamity on the scale of the world wars and the Great Depression unless action is taken. The report said unabated climate change would eventually cost the world the equivalent of between 5% and 20% of global GDP each year. Report author Sir Nicholas Stern, an economist, said acting now to cut greenhouse emissions would cost about 1% of global GDP each year. The report represents a huge contrast to the U.S. government's wait-and-see policies. U.S. President George W. Bush kept his country out of the Kyoto treaty, saying the pact would harm the U.S. economy. http://calsun.canoe.ca/News/World/2006/10/31/2186142-sun.html
Global warming could cost up to seven trillion dollars http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/britainenvironment
Global warming report calls for action ...eventual cost of damage caused by climate change could reach $3.68 trillion globally, The Times of London reported Monday. However, the report said the damage could be avoided at a cost equivalent to 1 percent of the country's gross domestic product. "That is manageable," said the report's author, Sir Nicholas Stern, former chief economist for the World Bank. "We can grow and be green." http://www.upi.com/NewsTrack/view.php?StoryID=20061030-043833-1977r
