They are churning out loads of rubbish again


Ed Miliband: China tried to hijack Copenhagen climate deal
Climate secretary Ed Miliband wrote in Guardian accusing China, Sudan, Bolivia and other leftwing Latin American countries of trying to hijack Copenhagen.

If he really wants China and the developing world to reduce their carbon emission, then ask the west give them the green technology. If the world really is in such crisis, why UK, why don't the US and other the developed countries make substantial efforts first and then ask poorer countries to cut their emission and restrict their development?

US was the biggest winner in Copenhagen anyway. US will only reduce 4% from 1990 level as a developed country. Why doesn't he admit that the developed countries need to reduce emissions from now on and into the future, it is only fair for all persons emit an equal amount. Why doesn't he agree that developed countries should pay up for past total emissions by which they reached their current standard of living. This is a cost that should not be burdened upon the developing and poor countries since they did not benefit from it.

What is the reason for asking poors to reduce their chance of survival and limiting further their baisc life needs, while refusing making sacrifice in present luxurious, high emission life styles in the west? cutting emission for rich people means take less jet flights, wasting less food and energy; for the poors it means lack of shelters, lack of calories and nutrition, living in unbearably hot or cold conditions, and death.

Why doesn't he speak out it is the US with the biggest carbon emission which is reluctant to lower their emission and glad to use China as a scapegoat. Is that with the like as Ed miliband barking at China and developing countries, the US would get less blame? the miliband brothers are amazing. it makes one wonder how come the guys with a father like ralph miliband could be degenerated so quickly in politics and serving the interests of privileged class and "the West" in interests in a cold war sense.
