“The exemptions included in the carbon tax run counter to the aim of fighting climate change and create inequalities with respect to public charges,” the Constitutional Council said in a statement. “93 percent of carbon dioxide emissions of industrial origin, other than fuel, will be totally exempt from the carbon tax,” the government body said in the ruling.
This shows that this global warming stuff has nothing to do with saving the planet — it’s just a money-making scheme.
Hmmm…
On second thought, it was a NASA a-hole who was first caught lying about AGW, and now NASA says we have nothing to fear…
Dammit, now I’m getting worried…
If we weren’t so far into the red I’d say having a go at knocking an asteroid off course before we need to do it for real or seriously bad things happen might be a good thing to try and do.
I think the last I heard NASA has stopped looking for bad news rocks because Congress needs to build monuments for Teddy Kennedy, bridges to nowhere, hospitals in places without patients, take working trips to vacation hot spots, or some such.
