Bonn endgame: Africa rebels as climate talks collapse
Representatives of Africa are stepping up and asking whether it is truly a just climate policy to pay a poor African to remain poor.

For the UN climate conference in Bonn the bear to worry about was not Polar, but Russian. Russia has revealed a lack of due process at the UNFCCC and forced them to suspend treaty talks.
Twisted logic at the Bonn climate conference. A UNFCCC delegate finds evidence the Earth is warming in a cold German Spring. Watch Now!
Is China using climate change to con the United States and its allies?
As the UN climate conference meets in Bonn and President’s Obama and Xi meet in California, the U.S. should soberly evaluate any Chinese proposals by recognizing that China’s aims are simple – to advance its own national interests while weakening its competitors. Barack Obama will find that China will eagerly shorten its journey toward becoming the world’s other superpower by indulging in environmental rent-seeking on a superpower scale.
Do you realize how much money you owe to developing nations to compensate for all the harm your extravagant car-driving, food-refrigerating, detached-housing lifestyle has caused?
The Maldives held an underwater cabinet meeting to let you know.
WATCH NOW. What they don’t know at the climate conference in Bonn may shock you. Then again, maybe not.
CFACT’s Bonn press conference: Statement of Executive Director Craig Rucker, the UN streamed it live and there is UNFCCC on demand video available featuring Craig Rucker and Wolfgang Mueller of the European Institute for Climate and Energy (EIKE).
Press conference — UN climate conference Bonn. Wednesday June 5, 2013, Hotel Maritim room Haydn.
It’s becoming apparent that so long as there’s taxpayer money and nice venues to hold conferences, there’s probably going to be no end to these regularly scheduled gatherings of international bureaucrats attempting to clamp down on our economy and regulate the weather.
The battle over global warming policy is often viewed as taking place in Washington, D.C. and the UN. But another front that receives scant attention, though is no less important, is in city halls around the globe.
Property rights vs. UN Agenda 21 ICLEI attendees dismayed over growing grassroots opposition
Can Obama & Kerry jump start the UN climate process? CFACT sends delegation to the UN Climate Summit and ICLEI forum in Bonn
Rep. Luetkemeyer’s bill would prohibit future U.S. funding for the alarmist Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and also for the Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), a scam devoted to redistributing American wealth in penance for our unfair capitalist free market prosperity. The rationale is that the IPCC has compromised its credibility beyond repair —
IPCC chief Rachendra Pachauri refused to acknowledge that global temperatures had not risen for over a decade when CFACT’s Josh Nadal interviewed him at UN’s COP 16 in Cancun, Mexico. This week he caved in Australia and admitted it.
In 2012, it seemed CFACT went everywhere, worked flat out and hardly took a breather. Our research was thorough, our spokesmen drove the radicals to distraction, our Collegians kept expanding and it seemed like Climate Depot’s Marc Morano lived on television. We aired our 5,000th Just the Facts radio broadcast. We educated, we innovated we reported, we adopted villages, we gathered scientists and scholars and we took the battle to distant shores. When we found closed minds we innovated and even entertained. We put masks on UN delegates to “capture” their CO2. Last year we dropped a British Lord from a plane. This year he flew from a camel.
After all, we’re CFACT! We’ll do anything to share our message of better lives for people and a sparkling clean environment – through freedom.
Here are some of our favorite CFACT moments from 2012.
Lord Monckton on Canada’s Sun TV recounts the reaction he received when he took the floor of the UN climate conference in Qatar to explain that the world has not warmed for 16 years.
Five hundred German police and tax inspectors raided offices and residences connected with Deutsche Bank in Berlin, Frankfurt and Dusselforf, Wednesday over allegations of conspiracy involving over €300 million in carbon trading tax fraud.
While a few profiteers will amass carbon trading fortunes, these schemes will not impact the climate in any meaningful way. Whether conducted legally or illegally, all carbon trading is a waste and a scam which cries out to be halted.
CFACT in the Washington Times: EPA is ready to unleash its first wave of carbon-dioxide regulations. Congress wants to tax hydrocarbons and carbon-dioxide. The UN is trying to devise a new treaty to regulate energy at the international level. Even one of these actions would send shock waves through the economy. All three would be devastating.
For those who believe humans are causing catastrophic climate change – or simply crave control over the world’s energy and “unsustainable” economic systems – Doha resulted in bitter failure.
In Doha, Qatar late Saturday delegates attending the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change took concrete steps toward a new global treaty to address global warming that will transform the economic structure of the world with a new global tax. To be completed by 2015, the UN expects every nation to implement it by 2020, even though the globe has not warmed for the past 16 years.
