3. Wonder if he is still fasting, ... Kick, ...

because today marks the last day of the Warsaw Conference, and there is no press at all. There is not one thing you can point to that was accomplished, in fact, this conference actually moved backwards. Many countries are running from the pledges made at Copenhagen, one of the only touted accomplishments of that conference. Australia, Canada, the US, and Japan have all been antagonistic to attempts at progress. In general, the entire first world has given the finger to third world countries adversely effected by extreme climate events and changing climate, and small Island Nations have been put on the tough shit list. Reparations has just been viewed in this conference with the same enthusiasm as welfare.

So one last kick for the flailing death of yet another conference, as it joins the respectability of the IPCC, as a clear and present farce.
