The Physics of Copenhagen: Why "Politics-As-Usual" May Mean the End of Civilization

Bill McKibben, TomDispatch.com: "Most political arguments don't really have a right and a wrong, no matter how passionately they're argued. They're about human preferences - for more health care or lower taxes, for a war to secure some particular end or a peace that leaves some danger intact ... That's why standard political operating procedure is to move slowly, taking matters in small bites instead of big gulps.... When it comes to global warming, however, this is precisely why we're headed off a cliff, why the Copenhagen talks that open this week, almost no matter what happens, will be a disaster."

Climate Change Talks: What to Look For at Copenhagen

Peter Spotts, The Christian Science Monitor: "Delegates left the Bali climate change talks in December 2007 with high hopes that a grand bargain on reducing greenhouse gas emissions would be secured by now. But today, as the latest round of climate change talks begin with representatives from more than 190 countries gathered in Copenhagen, Denmark, expectations are far more modest. The biggest decision - a binding international agreement on reducing greenhouse gas emissions - is likely to be pushed off until next December, when another round of climate talks is scheduled for Mexico City. Nevertheless, two weeks in Copenhagen will yield insights into global efforts to control industrial emissions and the warming of the planet."

Historic EPA “finding:” Greenhouse gases harm humans

Baton Rouge Advocate

12/07/09

The Obama administration took a major step Monday toward imposing the first federal limits on climate-changing pollution from cars, power plants and factories, declaring there was compelling scientific evidence that global warming from manmade greenhouse gases endangers Americans’ health. The announcement by the Environmental Protection Agency was clearly timed to build momentum toward an agreement at the international conference on climate change that opened Monday in Copenhagen, Denmark...
