Brussels, 11/11/2009 (Agence Europe) - As the world climate conference in Copenhagen (COP-15, 7-18 December) approaches, the European Parliament will hold a public hearing in Brussels on 3 December on “Global Warming and Food Policy: Less Meat = Less Heat”. Two major guests, Dr Rajendra K. Pachauri, Chairman of the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and Sir Paul McCartney, in his role as environmental ambassador, will use their fame to push legislators and experts to focus their attention on changes in what individuals eat, which, all together, can make a difference for the future of the planet.

Key words: push; legislators; changes; individuals; eat.

Go figure, as they say in the States

Pachauri: economist & railway engineer
McCartney: guitarist, songwriter

Bu66er that! I'll have my steak rare. Less time on the barbie means less CO₂. Don't tell me I haven't done my bit.

One couldn't make it up - hold up, they've done just that.

This is the type of nonsense that this country is subscribing to - courtesy of Milliband the junior and the airheads presently in government!

Bah!!
