Answer to the actual question is yes but I would not recommend it owing to the general safety concerns and moreover the recent increase in the terrorist activities have made such options more vulnerable.

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 jet...

ya i quiet agree with this. all the nation should bring down the carbon emissions to a certain standards. It is found the use of carbondioxide as refrigerant can bring down the emission. the emission norms should be made universal at brought down.

The G-77 group of countries and China on Wednesday blasted a Danish draft proposal for an agreement on climate change, saying it threatens the success of the ongoing Copenhagen summit. The draft text, which was leaked, is a 'serious and unfortunate development. It is a major violation that threatens the success of the Copenhagen negotiating process,' said Sudan's Lumumba Stanislas Dia Ping, who heads the G-77 group. The G-77 and China called on the Prime Minister of Denmark, Lars Lokke Rasmussen, not to make any such further attempts and also affirmed that the group would not walk out of Copenhagen and work towards an equitable outcome till the last minutes of the conference. What do you gu...

The opening day of the meeting of 193 countries on climate change at Copenhagen was meant to be an occasion for reinforcing political rhetoric and niceties. But even before the meeting began, dark news of cracks within the biggest bloc of developing countries G-77 plus China started showing up. The G-77+China spokesperson told the gathered negotiators that the developing countries were not at all happy with the ``common but differentiated responsibilities principle'' being discarded. It is also learnt that some member countries of the developing country bloc, in internal parleys, have demanded that emerging economies also undertake some form of commitments and get their actions scrutinised....

They must show their protest against the developed countries by being together and putting their demands forward. They should protest against the imposing of carbon cuts by the Western countries.

Integrity of any political party and its worthiness is judged from the way they conduct themselves in the Parliament and make themselves worthy to the people who elected them. Democracy is strangled when elected representatives, ignore the needs and aspirations of the people whom they represent. Democracy is strangled, when the political parties stoop down to use the communal feeling of one group against other to come to power and compelled to oppress other communities to appease its supporters. Democracy is strangled, when ‘Playing dirty Politics’ become the main business and theme of the Government and Political parties that support and oppose the government. "The Bitter Pills for India Reprieve" I wrote this in this community in toosteps.com few years back. The article is available in the following link in www.wordpress.com http://wp.me/p1ZsI2-5I
