CIA Closing Its Global Warming Office

Set up in 2009, the CIA -- under an Obama appointee (I can't make this stuff up) -- well, was an Obama appointee -- to monitor the interplay between a warming planet and intelligence and security challenges.

But this shouldn't be too surprising. Canada withdrew from the Kyoto protocol almost exactly one year ago.  The EU has given up on trying to lower CO2 emissions, using coal in lieu of natural gas. We won't even talk about China or the Sudan. And the Brits say global warming ended sixteen (16) years ago. Sweet 16.

Sweet 16, Neil Sedaka  

Wow, I hope I get to play this song when my granddaughters turn 16.
