Co2 taxes may be bad but what about millions of dead people? Maldives is 1 meter above sea level and you cannot deny sea ice is melting and if you do perhaps you should visit a national park to see the glacier retreat or talk to the people of the great Canadian north. If you are brave you would go talk to those people about how fake climate change is and how horrible carbon tax is. Life is not all about money. You are distracting from the main message of the video so please refrain from posting.

This brought tears to my eyes.

Wonderful to see.

Don't sign.

But they still don't get what's happening.

CO2 taxes are bad for everyone.

Great vid! This pinpoints that bittersweet mixture of passion and anger everyone felt at COP15. And these African guys were amazing.

Secondly, there are 1000s of peer-edited journals and thesis on every culture in the world, which are most likely not as bias as you. Also, I never actually said Africans don't wash their hands in cow piss-but I'm fairly confident in saying that the majority of cultures don't (which your generalization seems to view the situation differently)

btw, in these 30 countries, do you actually study cultures or are you just trying to squeeze in the fact that you've been to 30 countries just because?

[jthomp051]

My dearest apologizes for my grammatical errors. thank you for correcting me. so 30 countries, really? wow good for you, that is quite the accomplishment. umm 2 things though. first, if you've been to over 30 countries, how are you still so arrogant and unexcepting to cultures. I'm sure if anyone dug hard enough, they could find someone washing their faces in cow piss. It's not necessarily the most common method practiced however.

It's spelled "dumbass".

I've been to 30 countries and you have not, so what do you know about other cultures besides what's shown on tv and written about?

So you're saying that Africans don't wash their faces with cow piss? Are you sure I can't find that on the internet? Still want to go down this road?

Don't worry, I won't expect an apology for being right. Instead, you'll just come back with another typical response.

[jthomp051]

yeee harrr.... way to represent your hick views on the world.... but yea, you really know a lot about cultures. I am glad the world is compromised of such highly educated folk such as yourself. Yup.... cow piss and mudhuts, same old same old...

dumass (ps. this is sarcasm - just in case you are too retarded to understand)

Inspiring!!

Check out "Blame Canada - the Climate Change Edition" & "Sweet Home Alberta - for Stephen Harper - Climate Criminal" from the Planet First * People First rally in Toronto on Dec. 12, 2009.

2 songs on Youtube about the Canadian governments shameful role in Climate Change. At saramarlowemusic.

capitalism is good, but when you use capital wealth to influence government illegaly, then you have a problem, corporatism is what your real problem is.
