Stern Appointed Climate Change Envoy: Just for Money?

Via the Washington Post: Article by Garance Franke-Ruta:

This morning, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton announced that (Todd) Stern will be the special envoy for climate change.

"With the appointment today of a special envoy, we are sending an unequivocal message that the United States will be energetic, focused, strategic and serious about addressing global climate change and the corollary issue of clean energy," Clinton said at the announcement.

"Containing climate change will require nothing less than transforming the global economy from a high-carbon to a low-carbon energy base. But done right, this can free us from our dependence on foreign oil and become a driver for economic growth in the 21st century," Stern said after Clinton spoke.

How about proving a causal link between carbon (Dioxide) and Climate Change before going off half cocked!
Scientists analysing the Vostok Ice core samples have shown rise in CO2 FOLLOWS global warming by 800 years +/- 200 years.
Recent Satellite Global temperature records have shown that, despite atmospheric Co2 rising average global temperatures have been falling.

Are you going to look like gooses as temperatures keep going down.

Is it just for the money, Mr Stern?

Barack Obama, US Congress have no idea what they are talkng about

From Alan Caruba 4/1/09 In Canadian Free Press:

"Why do we need to know about CO2? Because the President-Elect, several of his choices for environmental and energy agencies, the Supreme Court and much of the US Congress has no idea what they are talking about and, worse, want to pass legislation and regulations that will further bankrupt the US of A.  ...at the heart of the global warming hoax is the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. While it purports to represent the views of thousands of scientists, it does not." 

See previous entry -"The IPCC can't count by John McLean.

CO2 is innocent and has been libelled by people on a government pad  or people making money from this absurb proposition.

Is, as he promised, Barack declares CO2 a dangerous pollutant, will Americans still be allowed to exhale?
