Bear silent witness to profoundly dangerous climate changes? Silent Canadians … for a real democracy?
Commercial fossil fuels interests of Canada and the U.S. want the XL Pipeline ASAP! They want the Enbridge Pipeline PDQ! The market promises trillions of dollars … fulfilling wildest monetary pipe dreams.
The largest source of “safe” fossil fuels for the U.S. is Canada? Canada would be “irresponsible” if Canadians didn’t take advantage of the fossil-fuel markets in the U.S. and China, says Joe Oliver.
The U.S. and China are not bound by Kyoto Protocols. XL is for the U.S. markets. Enbridge is for China/Asia markets. Canadian fossil fuels sent for “their” unabated GHG emissions? In Durban … Peter Kent/Stephen Harper withdraws Canada from Kyoto Protocols … dismissed climate science (GHG emissions).
Canada makes the future of our children extremely dangerous. Betrayed?
Four degrees Celsius increase … now. … is possible … by 2055! Trust Kent’s “push for new Kyoto by 2015”?
2015 will be too late, says Fatih Birol, chief economist for the International Energy Agency.
Averaged global increase of two degrees Celsius is dangerous. Durban put that unsafe goal out of reach. Selfishly/greedily … two-thirds of GHG’s come from the richest minority of the world. Will urgent changes now … limit global temperatures from reaching 3.8 to a disastrous four degrees Celsius? Time is running out … fast!
The time is now! Are you a dangerous “radical ideological environmentalist” labeled by Oliver … or yourself? For all of us … now… it is irrevocable dangerous climate changes … or for all of us… precious life. Harper says he is “led” by markets. In a real democracy … Canadians can question their destiny.
Silent witnesses in a real democracy … led to the end bridge … for all human development? Silent consent? Will we cross our own point of no return PDQ … silently?
