Now the Times(London) is reporting a historic breathrough on global warming at the G-8. What has happened to change things?
Well, for one thing, Hu Jintao of China went home.
For another, Barack Obama arrived.
What the new announcement is saying is that the G-8 agrees to limit "global warming" to 2 degrees Centigrade, and cut back emissions 80% by 2050. The other countries agree to the 2 degrees, but no reductions.
There is no word on whether they also agreed to hold back the tide.
Doing this is economic suicide for all 8 countries, particularly the United States.
