Solar Panels for 117 African Schools and Clinics

The Kenyan government has appropriated $6.6 million to supply solar panels to rural regions that to this day still do not have electricity.

The pilot project, costing $3.6 million will allow remote communities to enjoy more modern medical care, better education tools, and entertainment.

Kenya has long been a consumer of solar powered lamps, flashlights, and even hot water heaters. The government has set a goal to be 100% dependent on renewable energy by 2012.

I think it’s somewhat awesome that pre-industrial revolution countries can leap frog past the pollution straight into renewable power. Now if we could just break our bad habit.

Australia Burning Hottest Decade Ever

Australians have just suffered through the hottest decade ever recorded and there is no break in site for the new year. The average temperature was half a degree Celsius above the average temperature over the past 50 years. Climate experts expect temperatures to be a fool 1° above average over the next year.

Australia is one of the hottest places on the planet. Any effects brought on by climate change will be amplified in this region. Brush fires, droughts, and dust storms already plagued many parts of the country.

2009 was the second hottest year ever recorded almost topping the record heat of 2005. Global warming activists blame Australia’s use of coal and other cheap fuels for partially fueling the never ending he waves. Australia is one of the worst per capita emitters of greenhouse gases on earth.

The Obama Deception Video

The Obama Deception by Alex Jones, shown in full length below, is a documentary film about America’s hidden super powers and their influence on politics and monetary policy.

Whether you buy into the ideas in the film or not, it’s good to be aware of the film because it’s getting so much attention online. People are forming new opinions and conservatives are finding new ways to leverage the internet. I think at least it’s interesting from a neutral spectator point of view.

Climate Change Activists parade through downtown Copenhagen on Wednesday beating drums and chanting slogans.

A group of Protesters are beaten and arrested after breaking through the police line at the end of the parade route. You can hear someone on a megaphone give the call to action, a countdown ensues, then the protestors rush through the police line.

Over 900 people have been arrested by Danish police in Copenhagen this week.

It seems like a few people that were initially very brave at the start of this where stuck in front of the mass, and pushed into the police if they liked it or not. It seems like there was no escape if they were caught in the front of the swarm.

His speech focuses on helping developing countries avoid the fossil fuel revolution by using alternative energies. He cites Kenya’s 75% reliance on hydro-electrical power, the decreasing price of solar power, and his expectation that the Green Revolution will happen much quicker than people anticipate.

ClimateGate : Global Warming Hoax Exposed

Jay — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 06:48:01 +0000

Critics say the global warming theory may be nothing more than hot air as the COP15 UN Climate Conference draws near. The debate stems from leaked emails stolen from the Climate Research Unit at East Anglia University (CRU) in Britain.

Thousands of emails from staff at CRU, the main source for measuring global temperatures, were compromised by Russian hackers and posted on a Russian server earlier this week. The media firestorm that followed, named ClimateGate, was an epic backslide for the Global Warming Movement.

The emails show that temperatures have not risen in the past 10 years and are likely to fall over the next several years. The emails expose a system of peer reviews and data manipulation that tried to hide the lack of rising temperatures.

Climatologist Dr Tim Ball Discusses Global Warming and ClimateGate :

Bill has a somewhat biased approach, and there are many organizations complaining about how far out of context the shadey statements were taken from the emails.

These satellite photos, recently released under the Freedom of Information Act, show a dramatic change in the sea ice surrounding Barrow Alaska. It is estimated that approximately 1 million kilometers of sea ice disappeared in 2007 alone.

The Obama administration is hoping congress and the senate will pass a new climate change bill before the President heads to the COP15 summit in Copenhagen.
