There you go, attacking the source since you can't dispute the facts

Nobody attacked anything....just a question.There you go, attacking the source since you can't dispute the facts

You are correct. I see nothing there but mass transit.

There's no capture or prosecution genius, the point is to inform the public, something you could probably benefit from.
Then again, it's basically a list of heroes for people like you.
- Benjamin Sporton, chief executive of the World Coal Association;
- Fiona Wild, vice president of environment and climate change at mining company BHP Billiton;
- Marc Morano, founder of climate skeptic site ClimateDepot.com;
- Myron Ebell, director of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a libertarian think tank that opposes cap-and-trade and greenhouse gas regulations;
- Chris Horner, a global warming skeptic accused of harassing climate scientists;
- Bjorn Lomborg, author of The Skeptical Environmentalist and founder of the Copenhagen Consensus Center, a group that has advocated prioritizing other global problems ahead of climate change;
- James Taylor, senior fellow at The Heartland Institute, a libertarian think tank that says there's no consensus on global warming.

Global-warming claim: There'll be no air
How about one that the “depletion of atmospheric oxygen on global scale (which, if happens, obviously can kill most of life on Earth).”
That comes from a new study titled, “Mathematical Modelling of Plankton – Oxygen Dynamics Under the Climate Change.”
The study information is accessible online for a fee, and the abstract explains, “Ocean dynamics [are] known to have a strong effect on the global climate change and on the composition of the atmosphere. In particular, it is estimated that about 70 percent of the atmospheric oxygen is produced in the oceans due to the photosynthetic activity of phytoplankton.
“However, the rate of oxygen production depends on water temperature and hence can be affected by the global warming. In this paper, we address this issue theoretically by considering a model of a coupled plankton-oxygen dynamics where the rate of oxygen production slowly changes with time to account for the ocean warming,” the report said.

A new space race: satellites could test the world's climate vows
Scientists from the United States, Japan, and China are racing to perfect satellite technology that could one day measure greenhouse gas emissions from space, potentially transforming the winner into the world's first climate cop.
Monitoring a single country's net emissions from above could not only become an important tool to establish whether it had met its promises to slow global warming, a point of contention at climate talks in Paris, but also help emitters to pinpoint the sources of greenhouse gases more quickly and cheaply.
"The real success of a deal here fundamentally revolves around whether we can see emissions and their removals," said John-O Niles, director of the U.S.-based Carbon Institute, which studies methods of carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement.
And how are their satellites going to get into space ?
First off engineers are going to draw up plans using current available resources , then minerals need to be dug out of the ground using current resources ; mining equipment blasting powders , drilling equipment , large trucks and mills to process , then parts need to be shipped to specialized machinists to be milled from the raw state into usable parts , then shipped again to assembly areas , fuel needed to blast the satellites into space will have to be shipped to the launching site .
During the whole process fossil fuels will be used thus emitted greenhouse gases , the very gases these satellites will be looking for .

James Hansen, father of climate change awareness, calls Paris talks 'a fraud'
“It’s a fraud really, a fake,” he says, rubbing his head. “It’s just bull
for them to say: ‘We’ll have a 2C warming target and then try to do a little better every five years.’ It’s just worthless words. There is no action, just promises. As long as fossil fuels appear to be the cheapest fuels out there, they will be continued to be burned.”
But, according to Hansen, the international jamboree is pointless unless greenhouse gas emissions aren’t taxed across the board. He argues that only this will force down emissions quickly enough to avoid the worst ravages of climate change.

So.....now that that is settled.....what is Earth going to do about the climate change on other planets in our solar system? Demand that Martians cut back on whatever it is they are doing to cause it there?

which begs the question are we borrowing money from china just to then give it to them per this agreement?
