i agree that we all should treasure what God has given us, the nature resourses. i'm against pullutions and any expoitation on the environment. But Cobenhagen is more of a political issue than a climatic.

Since Dubai is in the news these days, I wonder how Al Gore praised Dubai, but failed to notice how much energy it costs to maintain an artificial oasis?

it's more about globalization, which is power and money (without globalization, you can't trade as much as you like). and in the end, money = power in worldly sense.

they really are two different things. one disguises the other.
