Climate conference emits its share of carbon (MICHAEL CASEY, 12/16/09, Associated Press)

If they fail to reach a climate deal in Copenhagen, world leaders flying in their private jets and huddling in five-star hotels will have little to show for their efforts beyond a big, fat carbon footprint.

The U.N. estimates 40,500 tons of carbon dioxide will be pumped into the atmosphere during the 12-day conference — 90 percent of it from flights.


Instead they really just want to kill colored babies.
