Annual G8 waffle

The G8 has (possibly) reached its high point, as the summit leaders announced their committment to cutting carbon emissions in half by 2050.

Planet will probably be completely fucked by then, by hey, its the thought that counts.

It is encouraging to see a board meeting that has George W. Bush sitting in, has decided to take some action to tackle climate change.

Described as one of the "stickiest issues" on the discussion board, global warming has become synonmous with a global slowdown for many.

Well, yes, we are going to have to slowdown if we want to save the planet. But that doesn't mean it has to be a bad thing.

How many times have you heard someone/yourself moan about the pace of life? Always working, never having the time to cook properly or spend time with the family.

Well here's your chance. Save the planet and save yourself. Couldn't be simpler.

Of course no real effective action can be taken until large, powerful groups like the G8 put pressure on multinational conglomorates and coorporations to cut expenditure down.

The individual has done enough. It is time for the masses to do more.

That was far too serious. Here's a link to something really funny that bares no relevance what so ever to the above.

Enjoy.
