It's heard that humans have built themselves the worlds largest liner, the Oasis of the Seas, and is on its maiden voyage. It's on its way to find it and sink it, like it's grand dad did with the Titanic.

"Glaciologist Neal Young of the Australian Antarctic Division said he was not aware of such a large iceberg being found in the area since the days when 19th century clipper ships plied the trade route between Britain and Australia"

So these were around over a century ago?

I bet the Evangelists are hoping to keep that comment quiet

If this was happening 100 years ago, and is still happening now.. The ice is STAYING frozen a long way from home and heading towards Oz... With all the doom and gloom surely it would not have happened again.

lol@ the polar bears being stranded on it

Stealth, I would love them to say that too mate, im sure they can make it into drivers faults somehow.

I see that the true colours are starting to emerge. Despite having only 'two weeks to save the Earth', the rich western nations just can't give up their beloved emissions.

The talks are in crisis as reported here. Surely if it was a real problem they would make the cuts necessary? I mean, who wouldn't save the world eh?.........

Perhaps it wold be easier to allow emissions to stay high and tax them

From what I understand (and I could be wrong), the rich western nations have set themselves a high CO2 limit and allocated themselves a high number of "carbon credits". The African nations have had their targets set by the rich nations and are allocated a low amount of carbon credits and if they go over their target, will have to buy more carbon credits from the rich nations. How is that saving the world? This isn't about saving the world, its about making money, keeping the rich rich and maintaining the status quo and the poor nations to stay poor limiting their growth.
