The Best reason to cut dependence on oil.

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/business/energy/6657947.html

Saudi Arabia has led a quiet campaign during these and other negotiations — demanding behind closed doors that oil-producing nations get special financial assistance if a new climate pact calls for substantial reductions in the use of fossil fuels.

That campaign comes despite an International Energy Agency report released this week showing that OPEC revenues would still increase $23 trillion between 2008 and 2030 — a fourfold increase compared to the period from 1985 to 2007 — if countries agree to significantly slash emissions and thereby cut their use of oil. That is the limit most countries agree is needed to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.



LOL...Imagine them coming to the UN for assistance.

Gotta love these fake outdoorspeople. What the fvck are they doing on a backpacking site in the first place? TROLLING perhaps?

Not really a great catch---it's part of his predictable trolling rotation. (He's trotted that one out before.) The guy who doesn't dayhike, backpack, camp, post on gear threads, post trip reports, post ON trip reports, and only posts douchebag comments on fuego threads or some salebored-esque babble on other threads ISN'T trolling a backpacking site? Come on! LMFAO! Half the people here don't even acknowledge his vile posts anymore because he's expected to be a douche.

(The rest of us acknowledge him because it's fun!)

So you guys are chastising tilt for his ironic statement then? The point isn't whether or not he backpacks, its his calling out other people for doing the same thing that he does. Why is he on a backpacking site? All he posts about is feugo, NASA, stars and how much he hates people who don't agree with him. If its ok for him to come here and never talk about backpacking why isn't it ok for others to do it.

I would love to see some statistics, but I am just guessing that less than 5% of all posts on this site are related to backpacking, hiking, canoeing or any of the other aspects one would think would be associated with this type board.

hell you guys all yelled at me when i suggested to Matt that we make each TT'ers off topic post dependent on the number of On topic threads they contributed to.

Kinda like a point system that rewarded trip reports, gear reports, picture albums.

Of course Mapleleaf was the most against this, and I don't know if there are complicated enough computer logarithms that can compute all you guys nonsense.

It was a dying tourist attraction anyway

Switzerland announced plans yesterday to crack down on “suicide tourism”, signalling that it might close the Dignitas clinic that has helped hundreds of terminally ill people to take their lives.

The plans — in the form of two draft Bills that will be offered for public debate — are likely to set off a rush of patients from Britain and elsewhere in Europe since Switzerland has become the main destination for those seeking assisted suicide.

Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf, the Justice Minister, said that two options would be presented to parliament. Either clinics such as Dignitas and Exit, which deals chiefly with Swiss patients, will have to accept much stricter regulation or they will be closed down.

the Swiss Government’s initiative is a fear that the cheerful Heidi-and-cowbells image is being tarnished

Huh? I thought their image was "Nazi collaborators". Assisted suicide would seem to go hand in hand with that image.

I don't approve of assisted suicide. I understand it though. It's right up there with abortion for me as in it is a personal choice in self determination.

Take-away line: “The approach that is often taken is that an editorial or article in the local newspaper is completely inaccurate, but it gets published before anyone checks the facts,"


... and then some moron posts it on TT and sets off a three day kerfuffle.
