It's a crime to yell 'fire' in a crowded theater when there is no fire, it must be a crime to falsely claim man-caused climate terror

.
"Impending crisis of climate change...to combat human-created climate change while we still have time to act...to inform our citizens of this gathering crisis"...Scientists say there is no man-caused CO2 crisis in the US now nor will there be in the near future. Because massive taxpayer dollars are cruelly diverted from real suffering, claims of climate terror must be considered criminal.

8/16/12, "Congressman Fattah Announces $5.8 Million Grant to Franklin Institute for Education on Challenges of Climate Change," Sacramento Bee, PR Newswire

"Congressman Chaka Fattah (D-PA), the leading Democratic Appropriator for science research and the National Science Foundation (NSF), announced today that NSF has awarded the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia $5,882,653 as lead partner in a four-city program for urban climate change education in the community.

"The Franklin Institute is one of our nation's leading scientific and educational museums. It is exactly the right place for a far-reaching program to educate Philadelphians, including school children, about the growing challenges and impending crisis of climate change," Fattah said.

"I have been leading the fight in Congress to make science and research funds available to institutions in Philadelphia and nationwide," Fattah said. "Education and research provide the key to American innovation and to securing our future as world leaders. That includes leadership to combat human-created climate change while we still have time to act."

Fattah is the Ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee's Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science and related agencies (CJS) which oversees more than $51 billion in funding for NSF, NASA, neuroscience research, the White House Office of Science and Technology as well as the U.S. Departments of Justice and Commerce....

"Philadelphians and residents of other cities rely on transportation, water, energy and public health systems that all are vulnerable to climate change," Fattah said. "I commend Franklin Institute for developing this major outreach effort to inform our citizens of this gathering crisis."

The cooperative arrangement led by Franklin Institute includes the Columbia University Center for Climate Systems Research, the University of Pittsburgh Learning Research and Development Center, the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, the New York Hall of Science, and the Marian Koshland Science Museum of the National Academy of Sciences." via Tom Nelson

US CO2 has been dropping since at least 2006 and is going lower:

"Not only that, but as my top chart shows, US CO2 emissions are falling even faster than what President Obama pledged in the global Copenhagen Accord."...

"What the government has not mandated, the economy is doing on its own: emissions of global warming gases in the United States are down.

According to the Energy Department, carbon dioxide emissions peaked in this country in 2005 and will not reach that level again until the early 2020s."...

The NRDC author notes lack of media coverage about US ongoing CO2 emissions drop.

6/22/12, "U.S. cuts greenhouse gases despite do-nothing Congress," CNN, Steve Hargreaves

"Even factoring in a stronger economy, forecasters see greenhouse gas emissions continuing to fall....Others take the U.S. success in reducing its energy sector emissions as a sign that its fragmented, state-based, regulatory approach has worked better than Europe's market-based cap-and-trade approach."

Global Warming "action" was institutionalized in US government in 1990 by George Bush the 1st. 13 federal agencies are tasked with climate "action," $68 billion has been spent on 'climate' just in the past 4 yrs.

CO2 alarmist 'glory days' are over in the US. Congratulations to the greens, you won, best of luck in your future endeavors:

7/28/12, "The Energy Revolution 4: Hot Planet?," Walter Russell Mead, The American Interest

"But there is one group (other than the Russians and the Gulf Arabs and the Iranians) that isn’t sharing in the general joy: the greens. For them, the spectacle of a looming world energy crisis was good news. It justified huge subsidies for solar and wind power (and thereby guaranteed huge fortunes for clever green-oriented investors)."...

"A victim of a famine machine that is entirely man-made, not by red communists this time, but by greens."...

12/28/10, "Fresno, Zimbabwe," IBD editorial

"Environmentalism: Fresno, Calif., stands as the de facto capital of California's mighty Central Valley, the breadbasket of America. So why is that city preoccupied with winning a $1 million prize to stave off hunger?

Local newspapers and Fresno County officials are trying to rally Facebook users to vote for Fresno in a corporate contest sponsored by Wal-Mart for $1 million in charity food donations for the hungry. Fresno, a city of 505,000, has taken the national lead because

  • 24.1% of Fresno's families are going hungry.

Civic spirit is good, but something big is wrong here. Fresno is the agricultural capital of America. More food per acre in more variety can be grown in the fertile Central Valley surrounding this community than on any other land in America — perhaps in the world.

Yet far from being a paradise, Fresno is starting to resemble Zimbabwe or 1930s Ukraine, a victim of a famine machine that is entirely man-made, not by red communists this time,

  • but by greens."...
