Get real! There’s no way MP Craig Foss would waste his time bothering about, a few whinging , “lunatic fringe” individuals, that would find it imposible to fill a telephone box!

Hmmm, Craig Foss to front a public meeting?

It would be great if he does and as you say Tom, bring along that Nick Smith fellow, but given the high level of arrogance already displayed by the Key Government within its first year, I would hazard a guess that your appeal will be resolutely ignored!

If John (I’m relaxed about it) Key is happy to allow ‘Hone’ and his Party get away with refering to Pakeha as “white motherf…..s”, then I can hardly see them taking any notice of our concerns with climate change and the ETS….

….besides that which benefits rich Iwi corporates surely benefits poor Maori, YEAH RIGHT!

■Collin Blackman – You sound like the official ACT party line. OF course the climate has changed before – but the figures now are well outside of the parameters of anything that has gone before. The mounting physical evidence cannot be written off by people with their heads in the sand.
But if you are wrong -then we all die
If ‘we’ are wrong -we just saved a shitload of energy costs.

The wheels are starting to fall off the Key Government and your challenge to Craig Foss to front up on the Emissions fiasco is timely and your arguments compelling.
The deal with the Maori Party is shameful and brings politics in this country to “gutter” level.
WHY THE RUSH???
At this time, Copenhagen notwithstanding, there is no urgent need for NZ to finalise our position. Anyone with half a brain should be able to see that!!! What we do means “diddly squat.”That is not to say that we should not be responsible in our own lives to do our bit to restrict our carbon emissions and other pollution.

Surely, the best thing for New Zealnd at this time would be for us to call a halt on the current lunacy and keep away from Copenhagen until we can present a credible strategy that is soundly based and is of substance.AND DOESNT PENALISE THE MAJORITY OF TAXPAYERS, THE MAJORITY OF WHOM DONT CONTRIBUTE TO THE MAJORITY OF CARBON EMISSIONS!!!!!
If our government doesnt realise and soon, the seriousness of the problems our beautiful country faces and acts decisively and wisely to rectify them we are going to be in TROUBLE.
The time is now for all New Zealanders to wake up and speak out and demand a much stronger performance from all politicians not only nationally but locally.

Lower Troposphere Global Temperature records show there is no, NONE, NIL, increases due to Man Made CO2 yet, even the Listener, has jumped on the Bandwagon – Last Chance to Save Humanity – give me a break!!
Truly “The Asylum is being run by The Idiots”.
There is no justification for a ETS. Just as the “Ice Age” alarmism of the 1970s has passed, so too will the heating alarmism of today regardless of how many trees the Maori get to plant. Climate will vary and has done for Eons. Yes we need to stop fouling our nest but that is a whole nuther story.
