Copenhagen climate summit: 1,200 limos, 140 private planes and caviar wedges


Ms Jorgensen reckons that between her and her rivals the total number of limos in Copenhagen next week has already broken the 1,200 barrier. The French alone rang up on Thursday and ordered another 42. "We haven't got enough limos in the country to fulfil the demand," she says. "We're having to drive them in hundreds of miles from Germany and Sweden."

And the total number of electric cars or hybrids among that number? "Five," says Ms Jorgensen. "The government has some alternative fuel cars but the rest will be petrol or diesel. We don't have any hybrids in Denmark, unfortunately, due to the extreme taxes on those cars. It makes no sense at all, but it's very Danish."

The airport says it is expecting up to 140 extra private jets during the peak period alone, so far over its capacity that the planes will have to fly off to regional airports – or to Sweden – to park, returning to Copenhagen to pick up their VIP passengers.

As well 15,000 delegates and officials, 5,000 journalists and 98 world leaders, the Danish capital will be blessed by the presence of Leonardo DiCaprio, Daryl Hannah, Helena Christensen, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Prince Charles. A Republican US senator, Jim Inhofe, is jetting in at the head of an anti-climate-change "Truth Squad." The top hotels – all fully booked at £650 a night – are readying their Climate Convention menus of (no doubt sustainable) scallops, foie gras and sculpted caviar wedges.

Note this is more "CO2" than 60 countries will spew in a year.

These elitist have some nerve, no? One would think that if they REALLY cared about this supposed man made global warming or whatever they call it today, they might have took a train :lol:
 
They bought carbon credits. It's all good.
 
Looks like a carbon footprint the size of Texas. It's a summit of hypocrites.

It's not hypocrisy. It's greed. We all know, or least all us Righties know, that this isn't about anything but money and control.

I thought Libbos hated greedy people. How many billions of dollars have global warming barons made off of this fake commodity?
 
Here is a copy of the summit's doctrine.......

The real danger is that the global warming crowd has become so indoctrinated that they will follow it's tenets' with religious fervor.....
Despite any contrary evidence.....
They will deny any of the recent frauds that were uncovered with the data scandals....
Strange bedfellows.....
Most are just plain old kool aid drinker types, sucked in by a charlatan with a few capitalist fatcats ready to score big....;)
Oh, the irony!......:doh

That funny.:2razz:

To your point, what is going to make this particular cockroach so hard to kill is that it is a deeply held pet issue for so many people. Many vote entirely on this issue alone, much like abortion.

So to abandon this doctrine as debunked would be like losing a close relative. They'll never admit they were "wrong" on the one thing that is most important to them.
 
Some 40,000 tons of carbon will be spewed getting this crowd together and keeping them in comfort. That is the daily amount of carbon dioxide produced by 30 of the world's smaller countries, according to UN statistics.:shock:

Kind of sounds like the live earth concerts.Lets further trash the planet to promote environmentalism. That would be like Child Advocacy groups molesting children while claiming to want to stop child predators or Anti-smoking groups smoking cigarettes at all their rallies while trying to promote non-smoking or a pro-2nd amendment rights groups supporting anti-2nd amendment laws.

They're trying to test their hypothesis that the world will end because of carbon emissions.

You won't actually know until the world actually ends.
 
Care to list one of those 60 countries?
With 60 on this list you play at, it would probably be easier for him to list one of those not on the list. Since you could not be bothered to read the article in the thread, the source for the claims listed in this thread is.........................UN statistics. Did you want to talk about the veracity and reliability of UN studies on AGW? Oh do tell.................:mrgreen:

Yup, it's probably Angorra to Zimbabwe for maximum spin effect......;)
The fact is that it should be postponed until "Climategate' is resolved, but they have to forge forward, there are contracts in place & too much money at stake......;)
 
NWO folks love this stuff. However, I think that politicians love this even more. They get to look like the big heroes for "saving the planet" and making us responsible, all the while they do this with tax increases, so they consolidate government power and say look at all the great things they've done even while being stewards of the environment. This has NOTHING to do with concern for the environment, it has EVERYTHING to do with consolidation of power and sucking more money away from average taxpayers.
 
This thread would be so much more fun if we had some liberals here to defend this bunch. So....where are they? :confused:

They're on their way to protest the protest of the conference.
 
Polluting for the environment is like bombing for peace.

I did read it, the Post piece said only 30 of the smallest countries, not 60. And despite the hyperbole I'm betting these "countries" consist of little more than a few goats.
 
Do as we say, not as we do, ye mere peasants!
