Letter to the editor: Make real contributions to fighting air pollution

North Dakota’s leaders need to keep this old adage in mind when discussing the future of our climate and energy policy: “If you don’t have a seat at the table, you will be on the menu.” Too many of our leaders in North Dakota think that they can resist all change and maintain the status quo indefinitely. Recent frantic reactions to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s endangerment finding on climate change are a case in point.

A green future that doesn’t exist

In the high desert of central Arizona, more than 5,000 miles from the hall in Copenhagen where negotiators struggled and failed to come up with a global-warming agreement, sits an aging and unfinished vision of the enviro-friendly, sustainable life that some climate-change activists foresee for us all. It’s called Arcosanti, created by the Italian architect Paolo Soleri in 1970, and it is the prototype of a green community of the future. The only problem is, it doesn’t work. And it never did.

Letter to the editor: Efforts to stop ‘global warming’ betray N.D. values

Approximately 140 jets carrying socialists, communists, fascists and political elite descended upon Copenhagen for the United Nations’ global warming summit. Amid freezing temperatures and a blizzard, they were chauffeured by approximately 1,200 limousines (some flown in). Inside they sipped champagne, ate caviar and plotted to keep the poor in poverty, destroy the middle class, transfer American wealth to brutal dictators and enrich themselves with cap-and-trade laws. Al Gore ridiculously claimed the polar ice caps would probably be gone by 2014.

Obama brokers nonbinding deal that doesn’t satisfy all countries

Two years of laborious negotiations on a climate agreement ended Friday with a political deal brokered by President Barack Obama with China and other emerging powers but denounced by poor countries because it was nonbinding and set no overall target for curbing greenhouse gas emissions.

Copenhagen: The emperor’s new clothes

Denmark is the home of renowned children’s author Hans Christian Andersen. Copenhagen is dotted with historical spots where Andersen lived and wrote. “The Little Mermaid” was one of his most famous tales, published in 1837, along with “The Emperor’s New Clothes.” As the U.N. climate summit, called “COP 15,” enters its final week, with more than 100 world leaders arriving amidst growing protests, the notion that a binding agreement will come from this gathering looks more and more like a fairy tale.

U.S. aid offer boosts deal at climate talks

Large pieces of a climate deal fell into place Thursday with new offers from the U.S. and China, but other tough issues remained before President Barack Obama and other leaders can sign off on a political accord to contain the threat of an overheated world.

U.N. negotiators look to U.S.

U.N. climate negotiators looked Wednesday to the United States to bring fresh ideas — perhaps in the form of extra billions of dollars — to try to salvage a bare-bones political agreement by the end of the week on controlling global warming. The U.S. must find ways of meeting demands by a suspicious world on reducing greenhouse gas emissions without exceeding what Congress will allow. It must also find the cash in a tight budget.

‘Take me to your climate leader’

“Politicians talk, leaders act” read the sign outside the Bella Center in Copenhagen on the opening day of the United Nations climate summit. Inside the convention center, the official delegations from 192 countries, hundreds of NGOs (nongovernmental organizations) — an estimated 15,000 people in all — are engaging in two weeks of meetings aiming for a global agreement to stave off catastrophic global climate change. Five thousand journalists are covering the event.

Act first on energy bill

This week, the world is watching as leaders from around the globe gather in Copenhagen to discuss the issue of climate change. Their goal is to work toward an agreement on how to reduce the carbon emissions that cause global warming. Back here in the United States, many people are pushing Congress to take up legislation that would create a “cap and trade” system to reduce carbon emissions.

Group putting out message

The North Dakota Climate Solutions Partnership has a message it wants to get out and it enlisted 20 scientists from around North Dakota to make its point. The statement of principles the scientist have signed includes statements that the earth is getting warmer and there is a strong consensus of scientists that human activity is a significant factor in the current climate change.
