A Laser Focus on Greenhouse Gas:
Debate Destroying Data Emerges

by The Green A-Team

The door has slammed shut and the debate is over.  Climate change by human hands is real.

According to the most recent report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, industrial activity has irrefutably elevated global greenhouse gasses, reduced snowfall, increased temperature, and raised ocean levels higher than ever.

While stubborn skeptics, like big oil, are still claiming inefficiencies in the study, many have converted.

Troy Ribaudo, of the University of Massachusetts, has been researching the effects of the newest laser detection devices further supporting these climate conclusions.

At the forefront of science there is little question that these findings are indeed the final nail in the coffin regarding mankind’s impact on the environment.

Business Chiefs Urge Carbon Curbs

by The Green A-Team

Full BBC article here.

Green Air Filter:

Like a group of do-gooder Super Friends, 99 major international companies have formed a coalition. But they are not fighting evil, per se. They are asking the G8 nations to create a legitimate target for which the greenhouse gas emissions can be cut down to. They are also asking for a change in government policy so companies can be provided with the aid they need for climate adapting products and services as well as a global carbon system.

This plan of action can bring about two possibilities. For one thing, with every nation able to carbon cap and trade on the same level (including post-Kyoto nations) it will be easier to realize emissions goals and healthy business competition will certainly open up. However, each company will have different policies and competition for government aid may also arise. They may be friends now, but 99’s a crowd.
