India Rejects Global Warming Hoax
Kudos to India, which rejects climate change hysteria in favor of lifting its people out of poverty.
India has nixed proposals to limit "greenhouse gas" emissions, evidently aware that while the agony of poverty is most definitely real, the global warming hoax is not. Says environment ministry secretary Pradipto Ghosh:
Legally mandated measures for reducing greenhouse gas emissions are likely to have significant adverse impacts on GDP growth of developing countries, including India. This in turn will have serious implications for our poverty alleviation programs.
Although this apparently hasn't occurred to many Western environmentalists, most people would rather have food in their bellies than starve.
Meanwhile, Germany demands that the worldwide temperature increase be limited to 2°C over the next century. The Earth's climate has been fluctuating for 4.5 billion years, but that was before moonbat bureauweenies took jurisdiction over it.
Even liberals might admit that emissions caps will have no effect if the biggest emitters — the USA, China, India, Brazil — are too sensible to drink the Kool-Aid. But then, the caps wouldn't have any perceptible effect anyway, except to lower our standard of living and increase the power of bureaucrats.

Seems like the next logical step would be for environmentalists to float the idea that we should use military force against countries that won't toe the line.

That sums it up.
