Kyoto in the Cold

This seems oddly appropriate after driving so much (well, not that much, but the car was so cold it seemed longer) on such a cold day:

"Montreal - tens of thousands of people ignored frigid temperatures Saturday to lead a worldwide day of protest against global warming."

Unfortunately, no one had supplied an updated weather forecast to the fellow who writes the protesters' chants. So, to the accompaniment of the obligatory pseudo-ethnic drummers, the shivering eco-warriors sang: "It's hot in here! There's too much carbon in the atmosphere!" Is this the first sign of the "New Ice Age" the media warned us about last week?

As did this:

In the past third of a century, the American economy has swollen by 150%, automobile traffic has increased by 143%, and energy consumption has grown 45%. During this same period, air pollutants have declined by 29%, toxic emissions by 48.5%, sulphur dioxide levels by 65.3%, and airborne lead by 97.3 per cent. Despite signing on to Kyoto, European greenhouse gas emissions have increased since 2001, whereas America's emissions have fallen by nearly one per cent, despite the Toxic Texan's best efforts to destroy the planet.

Yeah, ya gotta love it. God's got a sense of humor. Too bad the left doesn't.
