Other Nations should follow Canada’s lead and withdraw from flawed treaty before the end of 2011
Ottawa , Canada, December 13, 2011: “The Canadian Government’s decision to formally withdraw from the Kyoto Protocol is an important victory for common sense and one we hope all Canadians will applaud ,” said
Tom Harris, executive director of ICSC which is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. “The Protocol is based on an incorrect interpretation of the science of climate change and should never have been ratified by Canada, or any other country.”
ICSC chief science advisor, Professor
Bob Carter of James Cook University in Queensland, Australia agrees, “By quitting Kyoto, the Canadian Government has set an important example for other nations to follow. Instead of focusing our energies on futile attempts to control the planet’s climate, we need to prepare for inevitable climate change—warming and cooling, drought and flood, etc.—so as to reduce many of the very real and tragic consequences that often accompany natural climate variability.”
Dr. Tim Ball, ICSC science advisor and former climatology professor at the University of Winnipeg explains, “The Kyoto Protocol and all other flawed agreements to control climate originate with the reports of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). But the “Climategate” e-mails revealed that the scientists leading the IPCC corrupted the process by suppressing the very strong scientific evidence that humanity’s influence on global climate is insignificant. Both the IPCC and the
UN Framework Convention on Climate Change—the agreement that constitutes the foundation of Kyoto, Durban, and the Cancun Agreements—should be immediately disbanded. They have perpetrated the greatest hoax in the history of modern science.”
