Video edition:
That was played at the opening ceremonies of the meeting of Hopenhagen.
They have no shame.

Just in case you didn’t think I was serious about the propaganda push leading up to Copenhagen, we now get a new level of hysterics even for the chicken little crowd:
Professor Kevin Anderson, director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change, believes only around 10 per cent of the planet’s population – around half a billion people – will survive if global temperatures rise by 4C.
Anderson’s warning comes just eight days before global leaders meet in Copenhagen for the most crucial talks on climate change reversal since the Rio summit in 1992. Current Met Office projections reveal that the lack of action in the intervening 17 years – in which emissions of climate changing gases such as carbon dioxide have soared – has set the world on a path towards potential 4C rises as early as 2060, and 6C rises by the end of the century.
Anderson, who advises the government on climate change, said the consequences were “terrifying”.
“For humanity it’s a matter of life or death,” he said. “We will not make all human beings extinct as a few people with the right sort of resources may put themselves in the right parts of the world and survive.
When I began the “we’re all gonna die!” series, it was at least somewhat of an exaggeration. Now it’s just a plain ol’ factual description of what they alarmists are saying day in, day out.

We’re all gonna die a little bit inside once the women turn to prostitution:
The effects of climate change have driven women in communities in coastal areas in poor countries like the Philippines into dangerous work, and sometimes even the flesh trade, a United Nations official said.
Suneeta Mukherjee, country representative of the United Nations Food Population Fund (UNFPA), said women in the Philippines are the most vulnerable to the effects of climate change in the country.
“Climate change could reduce income from farming and fishing, possibly driving some women into sex work and thereby increase HIV infection,” Mukherjee said during the Wednesday launch of the UNFPA annual State of World Population Report in Pasay City.
Then we’ll all die from AIDS.

Today comes an Al Gore edition of We’re All Gonna Die!
First, the Goracle impresses us with his knowledge of the earth sciences, declaring on Conan O’Brien that the Earth’s core reaches a temperature of “several million degrees.” Our actual best estimate? 4,000-5,000 degrees Celsius. As NRO’s John Derbyshire puts it, “If the temperature anywhere inside the earth was ’several million degrees,’ we’d be a star.”
Now comes word of how Gore plans to open his next apocalyptic book. He will use the following quote:
I’m offering you the choice of life or death. You can choose either blessings or curses.
–Deuteronomy Chapter 30, Verse 19
The cover art even manages to be over-the-top hysterical. As the so-called science of global warming is increasingly rejected, expect the likes of Al Gore to hyperventilate about the coming doom at even greater frequencies.

And by “we,” I mean the turtles:
This resort town was long known for Leatherback Sea Turtle National Park, nightly turtle beach tours and even a sea turtle museum. So Kaja Michelson, a Swedish tourist, arrived with high expectations. “Of course we’re hoping to see turtles — that is part of the appeal,” she said.
But haphazard development, in tandem with warmer temperatures and rising seas that many scientists link to global warming, have vastly diminished the Pacific turtle population.
Only it turns out that warming isn’t really the issue:
Even before scientists found temperatures creeping upward over the past decade, sea turtles were threatened by beach development, drift net fishing and Costa Ricans’ penchant for eating turtle eggs, considered a delicacy here. But climate change may deal the fatal blow to an animal that has dwelled in the Pacific for 150 million years.
So let me get this straight. You had diminishing turtle populations before any supposed warming, while warming only “may” hurt them. Yet you run the story as “Turtles Are Casualties of Warming in Costa Rica.” Yep, that sounds like the New York Times to me.
Guess what? Climate changes throughout history. If one location no longer suits the turtles, they’ll move somewhere else. That’s how nature works. You cannot take a static snapshot of it and preserve it that way for all time.

If we don’t cede our sovereignty at Copenhagen, then Gordon Brown tells us we’re all gonna die:
He added: “If we do not reach a deal at this time, let us be in no doubt: once the damage from unchecked emissions growth is done, no retrospective global agreement in some future period can undo that choice.
“By then it will be irretrievably too late. So we should never allow ourselves to lose sight of the catastrophe we face if present warming trends continue.”
What warming trends? Even the BBC recently discovered that there has been no warming at all for ten years now. In fact, Washington DC just had its coldest Oct. 16 in 138 years.

I bet you didn’t know that 2016 would be the last Olympics. Turns out global warming hates competitive athletics:
Tokyo governor Shintaro Ishihara warned on Wednesday the 2016 Olympics could be the last Games, with global warming an immediate threat to mankind.
Tokyo is bidding to host the 2016 summer Olympics with Chicago, Rio de Janeiro and Madrid also in the running. The International Olympic Committee will elect the winning candidate during its session on Oct. 2 in the Danish capital.
“Global warming is getting worse. We have to come up with measures without which Olympic Games could not last long.
The horror!

Ninety-six months and counting until the destruction of Earth!
Capitalism and consumerism have brought the world to the brink of economic and environmental collapse, the Prince of Wales has warned in a grandstand speech which set out his concerns for the future of the planet.
The heir to the throne told an audience of industrialists and environmentalists at St James’s Palace last night that he had calculated that we have just 96 months left to save the world.
Did Al Gore lend him his trusty abacus?

We’re All Gonna Die, White House edition:
Man-made climate change threatens to stress water resources, challenge crops and livestock, raise sea levels and adversely affect human health, according to a report released by the Obama administration on Tuesday.
The nearly 200-page document on global climate change — released by the White House science adviser and mandated by Congress — does not include new research, but encompasses several recent studies on the effects of global warming over the last half century.
In other words, the White House has rehashed the usual scare-mongering in order to drum up “support” for the upcoming vote on the Waxman-Markey, cap and trade disaster. In a press release, Sen. Inhofe correctly noted “that despite millions of dollars spent on alarmist advertising, the American public remains rightly skeptical of the so-called ‘consensus’ on global warming.”
Right on cue, the White House’s propaganda arm (MSM) made sure you aren’t being fooled by the nice weather and, you know, general lack of anything approaching Armageddon.
With a cooler-than-usual winter and a mild temperatures leading up to the beginning of summer, global warming alarmists are finding they are losing steam in the debate. But “NBC Nightly News” won’t give up the fight.
…”This less-than-beach-like weather may have you wondering about global warming,” Thompson said. “This cold spell is a snapshot, just a couple of weeks. Global warming is something that happens over decades and centuries. So hang in there, summer and its warmth is on the horizon.”
That news of warm weather and theory of global warming was reassuring for Williams. “Glad to hear that. I was beginning to worry,” he said.
Lest you get too worked up, I am pleased to be able to inform you that our generous leader has a solution: money for the Chicoms!
CommentsU.S. Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern said that there was “no question” that China would receive both financial and technological assistance from the United States as part of upcoming climate change talks to be conducted in Copenhagen, Denmark.
“This is a developing country issue, which includes China,” Stern told reporters on Friday. “I think there is no question that a Copenhagen agreement is going to have to include mechanisms to provide the financial flows and technological assistance to developing countries.”

Lest we all get distracted by the nationalization of the American auto industry, it’s time for a reminder that humanities future is numbered. Impending doom threatens us all, as this fiesty planet threatens to hiccup us pathetic mortals right off it. This time the messenger of the end of the world is none other than ABC’s “Good Morning America”.
The world is about to end, or at least that’s according to ABC’s “Good Morning America.” The June 2 segment promoted a new special called “Earth 2100.” The program follows Lucy, a girl born in 2009, and her dramatic story about how if we don’t take drastic measures immediately climate change will cause droughts, floods, mass migration, and starvation.
This may sound straight from a science-fiction movie, but “Good Morning America” went to great lengths to assure viewers this wasn’t science fiction and that by airing this series they were changing journalism. Bob Woodruff, host of the special, called making up what will happen in the future “a different kind of journalism.” The segment quoted him saying, “not a prediction of what will happen, but what might happen.”
Just in case you don’t believe ABC’s prognostication, we are now being told that global warming is the real culprit behind the disappearance of Air France Flight 447. So now it’s not safe to drive or fly! Next thing you know, global warming is going to cause horses to spontaneously explode.
