[Skyryder]

Seems our PM's golden smile has not delivered the goods in Copenhagen.

This is the clown who is not only our PM but Tourist Minister also. I cannot help but wonder how many tourists he put off with this awad that he has won.

Dork that he is.

They can take their carbon emissions shit and stick it up their ass, he should be improving the state of new zealand, not worrying about what some uppidy shits want him to do for them when half their gasses burn a hole in the ozone right above NZ, anyway... Nevermind the entire US or european countries making a"carbon footprint" a thousand times larger than NZ...
"Our emission targets are low and that's not supported by the New Zealand public". -What makes this fuckin dork think she can speak for the New Zealand public?
"John Key should listen to the people of New Zealand and support a really high emission target of at least 40 per cent, which is what the science recommends he does." The people of New Zealand are all scientists? Surely that would be the only way their opinions were valid in a debate based on science? No?
"More than 180,000 New Zealanders have signed on to Greenpeace's "Sign On" campaign calling for a 40 per cent cut in emissions, relative to 1990 levels. " - Oh, when georgina said the new zealand public, one would think she meant the majority, not a small fraction of the population? Someone needs to point out that they can cry all they want about making these huge increases, with some scientific backing, but they aren't economists, how can they judge what is achievable change?

Look at the fuckwits that gave it to him.

[Skyryder]

Still bad press no matter who gave it to him.

"More than 180,000 New Zealanders have signed on to Greenpeace's "Sign On" campaign calling for a 40 per cent cut in emissions, relative to 1990 levels. " -

Have you seen these clowns getting signatures on the streets? They're just about militant. I suspect a number of those have signed just to get away from them.

And it's pretty easy to sign a bit of paper and do nothing anyway.

How many of those 180,000 are prepared to give up their lifestyles, landrovers and big screen TVs (or pay through the nose to keep them)? Considerably less than 10% of that, I would suspect.

I don't care that he's gone to Copenhagen - I just hope he doesn't fucking sign anything when he's there.

Not really - most normal people dont bother listening to the ramblings of hairy arm-pitted, lesbian, tree hugging fucktards.

[p.dath]

I wonder how many of those that signed on for a 40% reduction would be prepared to take a 40% pay cut to fund it.

Hell, if they all donated 40% of their current income to the cause, and gave it to business to finance new capital plans required to reduce emmissions then they would be really helping.

what's wrong with burning coal....?

Fuck that emission control crap....
Lets waste some unrenewable hydro carbons....
Join me for a Blast anybody.....?

Everyone seems to forget that matter can neither be created nor destroyed....

After experiencing the "100% pure" ad campaign abroad I was quite disgusted when I came to New Zealand about how many solid fuel fires there are and how many large engined cars there are. New Zealand is totally at odds with Europe and Japan in terms of pollution per capita - the only reason we get away with it is coz there's so few of us.

5 Years after moving here I installed a wood burner and bought a Falcon....if ya can't beat 'em, join 'em.:

After reading the first couple of lines - I was going to tell you to fuck off home.

Then I read the last bit

It's all a fucken joke. Key gets the fossil award. I hate to imagine the award the delgates of the U.S, China, Russia, England and other huge polluters received!!?

Oh right, Key was honest, the other diplomats talked the right shit knowing they wo'nt really be taking any action, full knowing that they are the problem.

I'm sure the carbon footprint of the whole summit wo'nt be gargantuan.......

Maybe the organiser should receive a polluter of the year award?

I can't take any of it seriously. I've been to the U.S of A, and seriously, just go out and enjoy yourself, don't recycle, or worry about your footprint, we are but a speck in comparison of what the other countries are up to.

Get the yanks into a reasonable sized SUV, rather than personal trucks for starters, then i'll listen. (forget about actual "green" cars)
