Пишут из Копенгагена:

President Chavez brought the house down.

When he said the
process in Copenhagen was “not democratic, it is not inclusive, but
isn’t that the reality of our world, the world is really and imperial
dictatorship…down with imperial dictatorships” he got a rousing round
of applause.

When he said there was a “silent and terrible ghost
in the room” and that ghost was called capitalism
, the applause was
deafening.

But then he wound up to his grand conclusion – 20
minutes after his 5 minute speaking time was supposed to have ended and
after quoting everyone from Karl Marx to Jesus Christ - “our revolution
seeks to help all people…socialism, the other ghost that is probably
wandering around this room, that’s the way to save the planet,
capitalism is the road to hell
....let’s fight against capitalism and
make it obey us.”  He won a standing ovation.

Это если у кого были сомнения, кто там собрался.
А вот кто тут остался, профессор Ken Caldeira, Hero Scientist из Department of Global Ecology в CIW:

I believe the correct CO2 emission target is zero. I believe that it is
essentially immoral for us to be making devices (automobiles, coal
power plants, etc) that use the atmosphere as a sewer for our waste
products.  I am in favor of outlawing production of such devices as
soon as possible….


Т.е. чтобы не было сомнения, чего они хотят. Социализм - и чтоб без автомобилей (ну, впрочем, вы помните автомобили при социализме? сами не захотите в них ездить). И дышать тоже неплохо бы пореже.

P.S. А вот еще из того же хора, видный эколог и борец с антропогенными выбросами углекислого газа, Роберт Мугабе:

"When these capitalist gods of carbon burp and belch their dangerous
emissions, it's we, the lesser mortals of the developing sphere who
gasp and sink and eventually die
."

Мы видели разные конгрессы дураков, а это, получается, Всемирный конгресс дураков.

Мне больше понравилось как Лумумба Станиславович объявил, что белые люди негров углекислым газом травят.
