World leaders 'could boycott failing Copenhagen talks'

[Peter Lemkin]

Yes, revolting what was done to the African and other developing nations - who stand to loose the most [and gain the least] from Global Climate Change if not stopped. Island nations in the Pacific will disappear and have to relocate their populations; Africa will broil and have greater drought and disease; Most in the Indian subcontinent will run out of water as the glaciers in the Himalaya decline. Australia has already stopped calling the heat and drought as a temporary situation - accepting it as the new 'norm'. While Northern Canada, Greenland and Northern Russia will 'seem' more pleasant, the actual consequences of their warming and the melting of the permafrost and glaciers [not to mention the polar ice melt] will be catastrophic for the Planet. While there is another meeting in Mexico in a year on the Climate, most Environmental Scientists and activists now feel [my perception] that if what happened at Copenhagen is how the Big Players will play this game there is not much chance in the future to turn things around in time. There will soon come a 'tipping point' [some feel it may already have been reached] after which nothing humans can do will be able to avert total disaster. The next adult generations will look back with great anger on ours, if they don't already. Few are aware how desperate the Environmental degradation is NOW..and how quickly it is progressing toward an even worse scenario. We are OUT of time and most are still clueless as to the impending disaster which will now be seen and felt with every year, every storm, every drought, every crop failure, decreasing food production, increasing disases and cancers....and more. This is the way the World ends, This is the way the World ends...not with a bang but an Environmental whimper....:ahhhhh:
