Certified Emission Reduction

The Kyoto protocol passed in 1997 and took force in 2005. 184 countries committed to it; the United States didn’t ratify it.
The United Nations set up a system. Certified Emission Reduction credits were created. They are similar to a stock certificate, which can be bought and sold. Currently they sell for about $17. A refrigerant manufacturer in India reduces carbon emissions. A CER is created for each ton of carbon emissions it reduces. The same type of thing happens in China and other countries. A project is called a Clean Development Mechanism.
An electrical company in Scotland has purchased CER’s. I don’t know how many they purchased, but the cost will end up on their customer’s bills.
The UN estimates that as many as 2.9 Billion CERs will be created by 2012.
The foregoing is highly simplified. Go to this web page for more details.
The United States Congress voted against the Kyoto Protocol.
Obama likes the Kyoto Protocol.
So, after five years, has the Kyoto Protocol been effective? Has the melting of ice caps and rising of the ocean slowed?
Is Obama correct? Should we shiver in the winter, sweat in the summer, and pay high prices for everything? Will we suffer alone, or will Obama suffer with us?
Should we harm the coal mining industry, and eliminate their jobs?
There’s a railroad that operates out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I believe it’s the Bessemer and Lake Erie. It has been in operation for years. It hauls coal exclusively. Should the Bessemer and Lake Erie railroad be destroyed?
How do you vote?
Are you going to allow this to be shoved down your throat?

It’s time to examine carbon emissions reduction. Obama Jr. has been involved with carbon emissions reduction for years. Al Gore has also been involved. Obama Jr.’s buddy Soros is involved. The United Nations is involved, and the extent of their involvement is not common knowledge. The extent of Obama Jr.’s involvement is not common knowledge.
China and India are involved, and much of Europe is involved.
Why am I writing this? You are involved.
Your way of life is going to change as a result of carbon emissions reduction.
If the UN, Obama, Gore, and Democrats in the United States get their way, coal, natural gas, and carbon emitters will be taxed. The result will be higher electricity prices and higher food prices. There will be higher prices across the board.
Obama made an “in your face” statement. He said, “The cost of electricity will skyrocket”. His attitude seems to be hooray for me, and you are meaningless; it’s going to be my way, regardless of any hardship on you.
I’m dealing in generalities now, but specifics will come later.
Currently the Environmental Protection Agency is regulating emissions. They have taken over regulation of emissions in the State of Texas. Texas refused to implement EPA regulations. Fred Upton, a congressman, is investigating the EPA.  The Supreme Court has ruled that the EPA can regulate greenhouse gases. January 5, 2010, Obama appointed Nat Keohane, an ardent supporter of cap and trade, to the National Economic Council.

I’m planning on getting into the dollar amount of  the United Nation’s involvement in carbon emissions. I’m planning on getting into how long Obama has been involved with carbon credits; it’s a long time. I’m going to get into carbon credits being traded right now, and what they’re worth.
Are you willing to sacrifice for the benefit of the United Nations, Democrats, and Obama?

True Story About a $1 Poinsettia

fx

My Son, Who Lives In The Same House As We Do, Bought This Poinsettia In December 2009

Here Is A Picture Of The Same Plant In December 2010

The plant kept the original leaves until October of 2010. Then the old leaves began to deteriorate and fall off. At about the same time, new green leaves started to turn red.

We did nothing about the plant’s exposure to light. We did not try to make it bloom. It bloomed unassisted.

All the old leaves are gone, and all the red leaves in the most recent picture are new leaves.

This is a brand new experience for me. It’s the first time in my life that I have ever watched new blooms appear on a poinsettia. I get attached to plants as I watch them.

The red in the leaves is so vivid, and so beautiful.

We have five other “perfect” poinsettias in our house, but this one is my favorite. It is also my wife’s favorite, and she too considers it as a gift from God.

I think of Ronald Reagan, who would marvel at God’s gifts, when he was viewing nature on his ranch in California, while riding horseback. This plant was truly God’s gift to me and our family at this Christmas.

I’m writing this so that you too can share in God’s gift.

Wolfman World View: “IT DOESN’T MATTER”

Google Images Labeled for Reuse
World Threat

Why the title “IT DOESN’T MATTER”? Things do matter, and the attitude that “it doesn’t matter” is destructive to society. This is true in the United States, and it is true in the world. It was destructive in the 1930’s and probably before that.

Germany

The idea of a super race was promoted. The mentally ill and the retarded disappeared, but it didn’t matter. Youth groups were formed, and people were killed because they were Jews, but it didn’t matter.

World Wide

Machiavelli had the idea that the end justifies the means. If you want to rob the rich, and give to the poor. That’s good. It doesn’t matter that it is illegal.

Tiananmen Square was a defiance of the government. Thousands were killed by the government. That doesn’t matter?

Presently Kim Jong Il is threatening the world. He has been backed by the Chinese so far. Both he and Iran are a nuclear threat. That doesn’t matter?

United States

Obama said, "If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period." A comment was made; “it doesn’t matter” that this has not happened.

It did matter to my brother’s wife and to many people who lost their Medicare Healthcare Advantage Plans.

My brother’s wife was denigrated even though she had no direct involvement in the article being discussed. “It doesn’t matter” was put into writing and published.

“I'm glad she lost her Medicare Advantage because it was a wasteful and inefficient use of precious health care expenditures.”  a Newsvine writer.

What happened to: "do unto others as you would have them do unto you?”

I thank Newsvine for the privilege of being able to publish these thoughts.

I’m thankful for the Internet, where these thoughts can be published in multiple places. This article will appear on Facebook, Twitter, Gretawire, Linkedin, Digg, my spaces web site, and my blogspot web site. I communicate with people all over the world, who read my articles. There are many, many search results picked up by robots of search engines.

I have had 6,000 page views on my Newsvine column in a month. Many other people view my articles on the sites mentioned above.

I’m thankful for Microsoft Word, Windows Live Writer, and the ability to publish.

Wolf Wolfman World View: SOMEONE GREATER THAN US IS IN CHARGE; GOD

Some rights reserved by actualmatthew

There was a Catholic bishop on Fox News this morning. He discussed the success of parochial schools.

Something like 90% of parochial students graduate from high school, and a high percentage of the students go on to college.

Why? He said it’s because these schools, unlike public schools, are accountable. If they do not produce, the students will not come.

Maybe someone greater than us is in charge.
Just before the bishop came on; Sarah Palin was on.
One of her points was; why do we have to be ashamed of the “manger scene”?
My point is; it is becoming more apparent in the United States that someone greater than us is in charge.
Tomorrow I will give thanks to God for his blessings.
Then I think about the world scene. It would seem to me that the God that I know is being usurped. Usurped by people who hate anyone who does not agree with their feigned religion. People who single out Jews as targets for their hatred. People who have demonstrated leaders gleefully participating in beheading. This is just a small sample of world actions.
Perhaps the feigned religion is not a religion at all. Perhaps it is a political movement.
I will give thanks tomorrow for only a limited exposure to what I call a feigned religion.
God is resurging in the United States, I pray that He will resurge world wide.

Wolfman Report: THE MONEY CHANGERS

Public Domain

I just bought a computer , and I love it. They say they quit shipping software discs, but I have the discs on the way. This computer has a 4 core processor among other things.Free shipping!

History

In Biblical times Christ chased the money changers out of the temple.



Matthew 21:12-13 (King James Version)

12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,



13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.



Franklin Delano Roosevelt



FDR took the paper currency off the gold standard. The money could be redeemed for gold, but FDR made paper money just a piece of paper. For a while silver certificates could be redeemed for silver, but that was stopped.



I read about FDR setting gold prices. When he was asked about an increase in the price of gold, he quipped that he had “pulled the increase out of the air.”



The Federal Reserve



Now, we have Bernanke printing $600 billion. The paper currency is backed by nothing. How did he determine how much money to print? I submit that he could have “pulled it out of the air”.



China
Inflation is a current problem in China. Their investment in US securities is being reduced in value. The $600 billion printed by The Federal Reserve exacerbates China’s problems.

Chinese consumers are victims of inflation. I saw a picture of Chinese citizens buying poultry in a frantic attempt to avoid inflation. Some Chinese citizens may starve due to inflation.

Others
Many other countries in the world have the same problem.
All citizens of the United States are suffering from inflated prices, reduction in sizes of consumer products, and more inflation is on the horizon.



Wolfman Report: ANOTHER MISTAKE

Fix Next One

OBAMA ANNOUNCED THAT HE WAS GOING TO CLOSE GITMO
Obama announced that he was going to close the terrorist detention facility in Guantanamo Bay by January 1, 2010.
It has not happened.
HOLDER WITH OBAMA’S SUPPORT WANTED TERRORISTS TRIED IN CIVILIAN COURTS INSTEAD OF MILITARY TRIBUNALS.
A proposal was made to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New York City.
It has not happened, and probably will not happen.
Holder made statements to the effect that civilian courts would find terrorists guilty.
There has been a civilian trial of a terrorist. He was nearly acquitted and set free.
Civilian Trial Fail: 280 Charges Against Gitmo Terrorist Thrown Out
Juror asks to be removed from ‘civilian trial’ of GITMO MUSLIM TERRORIST because of threats
Civilian courts did not find Ahmed Ghailani guilty of most charges in federal court in Manhattan.
Anyone who supports Obama and Holder because they are African American in these mistakes has an unacceptable reason.
Anyone who supports these mistakes because they are a Democrat has an unacceptable reason.
Bad behavior should be penalized, not rewarded, regardless of the color of your skin or your political affiliation.
Ultimately, your actions will help or destroy the country you live in.
The terrorists are encouraged by this spectacle.
God Bless America
