Copenhagen, Dec 9, 2009.
While accepting that the US is the worlds largest GHG emitter historically, US Special Envoy for Climate Change Todd Stern rejects the idea of a climate debt or climate reparations, stating that there is no guilt since during most of the period since the industrial revolution we were blissfully ignorant of the effects of CO2 emissions.

  • There is no man-made warming. PERIOD!  Ore6an0: blame USA first, of course. Moron.

  • yes please post ,I would love to hear all of his speech as he tells all the plans they have for us!

  • Mr Stern, your history is wrong., Recognition began in 1829. We have been VERY aware for at least 50 years. You and I personally owe the rest of the world to stop using, period. Your words support Empire. "Development" is a lie.

    We owe more than reparations, we owe solutions, we broke it, we bought it. Other people's children will die, and they will die first. It is your and my responsibility to do something about it. You speak the words of a beneficiary of Empire.

  • WTF? People were political ignorant was an excuse? I thought the idea was to right the wrongs we did before we had the knowledge.

  • Does anyone have the whole talk he gave?
