'Wonderful Whimsical Carbonhagen'

Climate Science Fairy Tales for Our Time

The Little Mermaid
Hans Christian Andersen's Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen.

In the Nineteenth Century Hans Christian Andersen went to Copenhagen and wrote fairy tales. Now the world's leaders and scientists are converging on Copenhagen to write some more fairy tales. To save the world from impending environmental disaster they are arriving in 140 private jets and utilizing 1200 limos. You can read the whole story in the UK Telegraph [click to read]. Yes, to save the planet they're going to have to burn a little fuel. The fact that the 'carbon footprint' of this conference will rival that of a medium sized city must be ignored.

Climate science, it seems, is really the stuff fairy tales are made of.

The Steadfast Tin Soldier

Algore, who's Tennessee mansion burns considerably more power than your average home [don't worry, he buys carbon offsets], will steadfastly refuse to debate Lord Christopher Monckton. He probably won't take questions either.

The Ugly Duckling

Lord Christopher Monckton, reviled by the climate science crowd will be broadcasting live from Copenhagen, Wednesday, December 9th at 12:00 pm EST [Click Here to Watch].

Monckton will once again make it clear that this treaty is not really about climate at all. It is about undermining United States sovereignty. In the end his true nobility will be seen by all.

The Snow Queen

Pick any climate scientist. The 'climategate' emails prove that there's plenty of snow.

The Little Match Girl

If your livelihood depends on any process involving combustion, this treaty will reduce you to poverty.

The Little Mermaid

Once again, fanciful biology will be employed to tug at your heartstrings. Cuddly polar bears are falling off their icebergs and drowning. Seals are eating penguins. The natural world is a mess.

Never mind that polar bear populations are actually increasing. No 'inconvenient truths' will be allowed.

The Emperor's New Clothes

President Celebrity Mubarack Hussein Obama will be strutting around Copenhagen. Need I say more.
