Here are some interesting facts regarding the much highlighted Copenhagen Summit...
Green summit? 1200 limos, 140 private planes
According to the organisers, the eleven-day meet, including the participants’ travel, will create a total of 41,000 tonnes of "CO² equivalent", equal to the amount produced over the same period by a city the size of Middlesbrough.
More than 1,200 limousines will grace the city's streets as 98 world leaders talk about how to save the planet. Most of the stretched vehicles have been driven hundreds of miles from Germany and Sweden. Last week, France ordered an extra 42 of them. Only five of the limos are hybrid, the rest are petrol and diesel.
Among the personal jets will be Air Force One. US president Barack Obama’s £180,000 limousine, known as "The Beast", will arrive on a separate flight with a fleet of decoy helicopters, up to 500 security staff, six doctors, two chefs and his personal Black Berry handler.
Are they really talking about going Green and Carbon Emissions???

Power consumption increases in summer and then we see power crisis. Every time there is power cut we curse govt and wish to have private power connection. Ahmedabad in Gujarat already gets private power suly through Torrent. Should same thing can... |
What is happening is good and a little more safety concerns will make things easy. Why to introduce other distracting factors here? |
We cannot live with power cuts though there is a lot we need to do. Nuclear power is the answer and till when we do not develop an alternative to this we just cannot help it. |
