Memo to new US President (Obama hopefully)

Therefore we are already in breach of Article 2 (i.e. the objective) of the UNFCCC:
“…to achieve… stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that… prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system…”
A great sentiment. Time to take the hope out of Obama’s successful return to the US presidency, and apply it to his application of policies to u-turn us out of the global disaster-in-the-making we all face. I can’t imagine what’s it like being in his shoes. No pressure…

Thanks Colin. Romney would have made that global catastrophe unavoidable. With Obama at the helm of the US, the World has been given one last chance to globally acknowledge that things are already much worse than the IPPC was allowed to say it was in 2007 – and therefore choose to act accordingly.
