Let me make perfectly clear (a political expression meaning ‘you won’t understand any of this’) my position. In case it impacts today’s crucial vote on the – Read More-
150 world leaders gathered in Paris yesterday for the first totally all-world global warming conference. I wasn’t invited. Bit annoying really, as I’ve reduced my carbon footprint to a size 2 and don’t burn any coal whatsoever. But conference they did. If ‘conference’ can be a verb. Probably is in America. Like ‘golf’.
