Act Now! EU’s 30% Off special offer extended
The European Union’s conditional offer of reducing carbon emmissions by 30% is still on.
Several participants at an informal meeting of European environment ministers in Seville in southeastern Spain said the proposal must remain on the table in the wake of the failed Copenhagen summit to keep the momentum in global climate talks going.
“We definitely think we should maintain the 30 percent offer. We think it is very, very important. It has always been a conditional offer but it is a very important signal that it is maintained,” British Energy and Climate Change Minister Ed Miliband told reporters.
The 27-nation European Union had agreed ahead of the climate talks in Denmark to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 20 percent over the next decade from 1990 levels and to deepen those cuts to 30 percent if other nations followed suit.
But the offer failed to inspire other nations to raise their targets for emissions cuts as had been hoped.
This special offer is sure to send soon, so act now while supplies last!

The running joke about “Soon they will tax us for the air we breathe” has become a reality.
More accurately CO2 Cap and Trade is a tax on the air we breathe out, a tax on all human activity. This is by far the largest coup in history for the financial industry and governments in general. The governments rake in large amount of taxes. The financial industry gets a huge chunk of the tax as a fee for being the self designated tax collector on every single activity that takes place on the planet. As all activity produces CO2 we are talking trillion dollar frauds perpetrated on the people.
There is only one problem with cap and rape, CO2 as a pollutant is a big lie. While lying is the “new” truth, it’s a dangerous road best not travelled, as the consequences are unforeseen and have a tendency to come back to haunt.
Seen in a local NE paper (UK):
“There used to be a joke that the government would tax the air you breath if they could, but the joke may be a little close to the truth these days. In the News xxxx letters page of the 31st December a councillor talked about his ‘carbon footprint’ a common phrase to hear and we seldom question what’s behind it. We rely on scientists to practice ‘pure science and nothing else’ and duly put their findings up for public scrutiny. Recently a substantial amount of information was placed in the public domain that scientists connected with ‘global warming’ from the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit (CRU) would have preferred to remain secret. This has become known as ‘Climategate’. “Climate change: this is the worst scientific scandal of our generation” to quote a national newspaper. Even the most trusting person would start to question the whole matter of C02
being cast as the villain, when it is an essential of life itself. But scientists are always right, or are they ?. Leaving that for a moment, turning to the subject of ‘Carbon tax’ which is now imposed upon us whether we like it or not. It must now be paid by the poor as they make up the majority of virtually every nation on earth. Globally it has cost the poor many billions of whatever currency their government has. Here in Europe the fraud in ‘carbon trading’ alone is worth a quote: “……Just a few weeks ago, Europol, the cross-border police force, said that carbon trading fraudsters may have accounted for up to 90pc of all market activity in some European countries, with criminals mainly from Britain, France, Spain, Denmark and Holland pocketing an estimated €5bn (£4.5bn).”It is estimated that in some countries, up to 90pc of the whole market volume was caused by fraudulent activities,” (national newspaper). Satellites that circle the planet twice a day show that the earth has not warmed since 2001, so are we being taken for a gigantic ride to support an equally gigantic gravy train ?. Is ‘carbon tax’ the new ‘window tax’, and is the air we breath free after all ?”
Dear Europe,
Thank you for your kind offer to further decrease your prosperity and freedom for the benefit of mankind. Considering the fact that you haven’t even met your existing carbon reduction commitments, going to 30% is truly generous.
After considering things carefully, we unfortunately need to decline your offer. Our citizens aren’t too keen on economic suicide, as yours apparently are. they rather like the idea of less poverty, and all that goes with it.
Good luck with your own plans, though. Hope things work out well for you.
Sincerely,
The world
