Keine Einsicht bezügliche CO2 Emissionen – Klimagipfel zum Scheitern verurteilt?lola 06 Dec 2009 09:02 GMT (translated by lola)
Wissenschaftliche Studien haben ergeben, dass der verträgliche Wert von Kohlenstoff in der Atmosphäre in Teilen pro Million (ppm) 350ppm beträgt. "Wenn die Menschheit einen Planeten wie diesen, auf dem sich eine Zivilisation entwickelt und an den sich das Leben angepasst hat, retten will muss nach paläoklimatischen Erkenntnissen und ständigem Klimawandel der CO2-Ausstoß von den aktuellen 385 ppm mindestens auf 350 ppm reduziert werden." Diese Erkenntnis basiert auf der Arbeit von James Hansen. Ein Papier mit dem Titel: "Target Atmospheric CO2: Where Should Humanity Aim.". Im Bericht des Zwischenstaatlichen Ausschuss für Klimaänderungen (IPCC) 2007 wird erörtert, dass die entwickelte Wirtschaft ihre CO2 Emissionen 25 – 40 % unter den Wert von 1990 reduzieren müssen, um die Erderwärmung von 2 Grad aufhalten zu können. Wissenschaftler forderten im März 2009 schnelle, anhaltende, effektive Aktionen um einen gefährlichen Klimawandel abzuwenden. Klimaexperte und Autor David Spratt schreibt: "Vor zwei Jahren hat die Europäische Union in Bali ein Rahmenwerk vorgeschlagen, mit dem der globale CO2-Ausstoß in 10-15 Jahren einen Höchststand erreichen würde und entwickelte Staaten bis 2020 Emissionen 20-40 % unter dem Wert von 1990 erreichen würden. Die Vereinigten Staaten, unterstützt durch Australien und andere Länder, lehnten das rigoros ab. Mit Tränen und Verbitterung konferierte die Bali-Versammlung bis spät in die Nacht, um einen Kompromiss zu erarbeiten, der 'erhebliche Reduktion von Emissionen weltweit' mit einem Verweis auf den 2007 IPCC Bericht anordnete." (Climate Code Red: Copenhagen reality check: 25% by 2020 isn't in the ball park) Siehe auch: Climate Change Road map Agreement Reached in Bali Meeting Spratt sagt: "Forschungen haben ergeben, das seine Erwärmung von 2 Grad größere klimatische Reaktionen auf dem Land und in den Ozeanen einleiten wird. Das Meereis und die Gletscher werden schmelzen und die Tundra, sowie andere wichtige Regionen werden kippen." "Mögliche Auswirkungen könnten auch sein: Schwinden der Eisdecke in Grönland und in der westlichen Antarktis; Ansteigen des Meeresspiegels; die Ausrottung von schätzungsweise 15 - 40 % von Pflanzen- und Tierarten [PDF- Extinction Risk of Climate Change, Nature (2004)]; eine gefährliche Versauerung der Ozeane und Dürren, Verwüstung und Unterernährung in Afrika, Australien, dem mediterranen Europa und dem Westen der USA", so Spratt in seinem Blog. In diesem Jahrhundert soll der Meeresspiegel um einen Meter oder mehr steigen. Damien Lawson von den Friends of the Earth Australien deutete auf Forschungen hin in denen bewiesen wurde, dass die paläoklimatischen Werte den Anstieg des Meeresspiegels von 3 Metern in 50 Jahren vorhersagen. Dies läge auch an einem schnellen Abschmelzen der Eisdecke vor 120.000 Jahren. "Wir müssen die rosarote Brille absetzen. Unsere Planungen zur Emissionsreduktion und unsere Gegenmaßnahmen zum Erhalt des derzeitigen Meeresspiegels müssen auf dem schlimmst anzunehmenden Fall basieren", sagte er (Australia: Impacts of Rising Sea Level a wake up call on Climate Change) +++ REST FOLGT +++ The Industrialised countries of North America, Europe, Australia and Asia Pacific (Annexe 1 Countries) have ground negotiations to a halt in Barcelona by failing to agree to their new targets under the Kyoto Protocol, according to the Group of 77 comprised mainly of African nations plus China. The African delegates boycotted talks until rich countries say how much they will reduce their carbon. Kamese Geoffrey of NAPE/Friends of the Earth Uganda warned, "Rich countries are attempting to dodge their legal and moral responsibilities to reduce emissions. Developing countries and communities have historically had practically no fault in the creation of climate change, yet they will be the first to face the devastating impacts of climate change." according to a report on Grist. The chief negotiator for the European Commission has announced in Barcelona that the failure of the U.S. Congress to pass legislation before December has doomed the chances for success in Copenhagen. Europe now expects that a binding climate treaty may take a year or more to achieve, while industrialised nations continue dithering on emission reductions and propose insufficient emission reduction targets of 5-20% by 2020 when scienists say 40% or more targets are required. (Grist - Europe places outcome of Copenhagen squarely on Obama) Friends of the Earth has called called on President Obama to earn the Nobel Prize he was given for his efforts to strengthen international diplomacy. "Change we can believe in isn't a continuation of Bush era climate policy," said Kate Horner, policy analyst at Friends of the Earth U.S. "To earn his Nobel, President Obama must put an end to this isolationist nonsense and commit to acting cooperatively to solve the climate crisis." Antje von Broock, climate campaigner at Friends of the Earth Germany said "The rest of the world seems to be suffering from a severe case of amnesia, forgetting that we have once already allowed the United States to severely weaken international climate agreements," referring to the policy positions taken by the United States during the negotiations to establish the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. "The European Union must not fall into the same trap again." she said in a FOE media release. Background Articles

part of the problem is the north west activists in the u.s. want to blame the u.s. military for the drugs coming into the country while shunning the fishermen who have been demanding a reprimand of the international maritime organization members who have spilt oil on 3 seperate occasions in the last 4 years in our natural resources.(selendang ayu,cosco busan,and dubai star and cougar ace)..the industrial shipp;ing conglomerates out of hong kong ( international maritime carriers ,c.e.o. frant tsao) pays off senator dodd, senator cantwell and other s whilethe competing shipping companies in hong kong (fleet management services) and mitsui,and hanjin and china shipping, and others make 10's of billions of dollars then invest in more demise of sustainable resources such as the food supply,the soil ,the water ,and the air so as to get richer quiker destroying with (money worshippin) mining ,drilling that end up paying off our senate and congress and thier staff to capitulate not onlly charging the proper port rates( at present the seattle libraries have to close earlier and earlier to make up for budget losses directly linked to the property taxes being raided by the city mayor and the governor who end up covering the debt of port operations casused by travel junkets paid to port officials and staff who sign off on dicounted port rates that have to be paid by local prperty taxes while the 3rd world industrialist take 10's of billions out of the u.s. while leaviing 10's off millions in unnecessary debt (as a form of charity to 3rd world ) who end up using some of the extra money to show how cold hearted and savvy they think they are buying off our constituional integrity and our congress through poitical action committes fronted by law firms hired by china and india who among other entities squeeze through the cracks of integrity and take over lobbying arms of shiping known as INTERCARGO", IN CONNECTICUT....

the third world is hating us for saying no you better not, damn you the African shanty towns say f y rich man. Yoiu can do with cuts perhaps, but we want to rise up to poverty and the good life and that means pollution. So get your damn elite treaties off our backs.
Of course this message doies not play well with the idealism....

Carbon Dioxide replacing oxygen in the atmosphere is deadly. 17.Dec.2009 22:01
Greenpeace pointed out that the process of putting CO2 into the atmosphere replacing the burned out oxygen is already done by 35% loss of oxygen content. This process must end because we as a specie cannot live on Carbon-Dioxide CO2. This process should have ended by the late eighties of the last century. The EPA designates that 350 is the maximum for CO2, but now stands at 390 and that means already the evolution of life as we know it is being defeated by the disaster of the ecological green balances of life not being able to replace oxygen anymore at a sustainable level as was previously happening before the industrial revolution.
Simply put we cannot live on CO2, so continuing the fossil fuels will result in suffication of the entire species that need oxygen to live. Life is already experiencing life threatening advances and species are dying out with increasing rapidity. End pollution wars, not endless wars for more pollution. Re-tool to the non-pollution solution of wind, tidal, and solar power, and the electricity caused thereby will cancel out the CO2 by about 97% and thusly allow the trees to remove the carbon for cell building and replace clean oxygen back to our atmosphere again at a sustainable rate.
