Tories Release Dire Forecast on Kyoto

I think this will create new business but the oil&gas and the auto sector will be hurt.

They hit the energy sector and it will go right through the entire economy. Business has two choices, cut wages or close the doors. At the same time wages are cut the cost of living goes up.

Never mind that. I'm intrigued by the clear correlation between the demise of pirates and the temperature of the oceans. I put the figures in my handy climate modelling computer, and it said...well it doesn't matter about that right now, there's a clear consensus among scientists anyway...but if we revive the practice of Spanish galleons toting gold and silver to Spain from the new world, I have no doubt that piracy will revive. We'll just have to convince the UN that privateering is essential to the wellbeing of the planet and viola...no more global warming.

I'm hoping Johnny Depp and the third installment of Pirates of the Caribbean can rekindle a movement towards Pirate life.

Less Pirates = Higher Global Temperatures

So it only stands to reason

More Pirates = Lower Global Temperatures

If you really want to help with global climate change, you'll chop off your leg and get a peg, put on an eyepatch and find yourself a parrot. Make a real difference. Become a pirate.

Sure, as long as those nice people at the UN get their cut they'll be happy.
