Let them eat cake, I plan to have "coffee, cookies and conversation" ("hot air") tomorrow (November 3rd) at the "World Bank Open House on Climate Change" here in Buenos Aires. Such a deal!

      Why is the World Bank involved in the Climate Change negotiations? One big reason is because the $18 BILLION gift American taxpayers just gave them in the new "budget" deal is probably burning a hole in their pockets. (I hope someone is watching out for the ozone layer!) The U.S. Congress and the Clinton Administration just gave the World Bank $18 BILLION, so they can afford to buy lots of coffee and cookies as they expel "hot air" bragging about their newfound riches. Another is because the World Bank and the New World Order crowd are using the environmental issue to globally redistribute wealth.

      The World Bank is less concerned about "hot air" than about controlling every nations wealth. The UN defines "hot air" as "the concern that some governments will be able to meet their commitment targets with minimal effort and could then flood the market for emissions credits, reducing the incentive for other countries to cut their own domestic emissions." National sovereignty is anathema to the UN and its World Bank.

      Those of you who received my messages from Kyoto, Japan last December probably remember the question I asked the American Congressmen there: "Is it true that this (Kyoto) conference has nothing to do with climate change and everything to do with economics?" Both Democrats and Republicans responded with a resounding "YES."

      There is not adequate scientific evidence to prove that the globe is warming. And even if it was, it would be just what the environment needs. According to preeminent authority Sherwood Idso, our CO2 levels (the major "greenhouse gas" that is supposed to cause global warming) could be 10 times higher than what they are today with no adverse effects on man or animals, and with excellent effects on plants and trees.

      That brings us back to why the World Bank is sharing coffee, cookies and conversation ("hot air"). Like sucking piglets, many nations cannot afford to miss the coffee, cookies and conversation ("hot air") with the mother sow, the World Bank.

      I don't want to miss the show! I'll let you know tomorrow how it goes.
