    27 KB French government backs down on carbon tax plan Anonymous 03/23/10(Tue)17:54 No.425902  
    >The French government has signalled that it is dropping a plan for a tax on domestic carbon dioxide emissions.

    Jean-Francois Cope, parliamentary leader of the governing UMP party, was quoted as saying the tax "would be Europe-wide or not (exist) at all".

    Prime Minister Francois Fillon told parliament that the government should focus on policies that increased France's economic competitiveness.

    France had been rethinking the tax after a court rejected it last year

    Met office in the UK has dropped long term forecasting because....kept predicting global warming...kept not happening. Looks like that's over, wonder what the 2010s thing will be.

    The French would be fucking rolling if there was a Europe-wide tax with all the nuclear power they could sell.

    Warmest year on record? 1998 right? common knowledge?

    Nope, it's 2005.
    Strange....you remember it having been 1998 since...well, since 1998, and certainly it was still 1998 in 2005...and 2006, 2007, 2008.....must be your mind playing tricks on you, they couldn't have retroactively changed the temperature records could they? That would be the sort of thing delusional deniers talk about...the sort of thing that doesn't really happen....right?
