Default UN calls for higher taxes to fund climate warning fight

Follow the money. This is the single largest ponzi scheme ever attempted on mankind.


UN calls for higher taxes to fund climate warning fightPosted 4 hours 23 minutes ago


A top UN panel has called for increased taxes on carbon emissions and air and sea transport to raise 100 billion dollars a year to combat climate change.

The group led by the prime ministers of Norway and Ethiopia also proposed a tax on international financial transactions for a fund to help poorer nations counter the impact of the warming planet.

The radical proposals will be sent to all governments and get a first international airing at the next UN climate conference in Cancun, Mexico starting at the end of the month.

The scam rolls on.

HAHAHAHAHA! What a scam. Like we've been saying for years, its all about the money.

BTW, this UN is the same UN that is going to have an open forum on US human rights abuses....and paneled by notorious human rights violators as China, Cuba, Libya and Saudi Arabia.

This UN thing is awesome!

President Barack Obama said he will look for ways to control global warming pollution other than Congress placing a ceiling on it.

"Cap-and-trade was just one way of skinning the cat; it was not the only way," Obama said at a news conference Wednesday, a day after Democrats lost control of the House. "I'm going to be looking for other means to address this problem."

I'm all for a cleaner planet but global warming regulations harm economic development. Let's just enforce all these rules on developing countries and let their quality of life sour while we roll on down to Walmart for a new flat screen TV.
