Moon(-bat)
Another pointless gab-fest with a carbon footprint the size of Liechtenstein will end without any agreement, predicts UN head Ban Ki-moon(-bat). The economies of the world will be spared, for the time being at least, from the ravages of a pointless carbon tax.
UNITED Nations chief Ban Ki-moon has voiced doubts that member states can reach a new global climate change agreement in December at a conference in Mexico.
Mr Ban, who pushed hard for a deal during the 2009 conference in Copenhagen, suggested that a better approach might consist of small steps in separate fields that build towards wider consensus rather than aiming for a sweeping pact.
''Climate change, I think, has been making progress, even though we have not reached such a point where we will have a globally agreed, comprehensive deal,'' he said. (source)
Another bullet dodged.

How about late November for the release of the second tranche of Climategate e-mails?
@Rick: Wouldn’t that be sweet!
I wonder how many more conferences of non-agreement is it going to take before they realise the proposed measures just don’t have any political worth? (thankfully)
