According to William A. Jacobson at legalinsurrection.blogspot.com
Despite mounting evidence that key climate researchers were less than honest, and other indications that the science is not settled, tomorrow 56 newspapers will run a common front page editorial saying we have 'Fourteen days to seal history's judgment on this generation':
Tomorrow 56 newspapers in 45 countries take the unprecedented step of speaking with one voice through a common editorial. We do so because humanity faces a profound emergency....
The graphic at right (above), reprinted from The Guardian in Britain, show the newspapers which will be participating. Here's what's really motivating the alarmism, from the editorial:
Social justice demands that the industrialised world digs deep into its pockets and pledges cash to help poorer countries adapt to climate change, and clean technologies to enable them to grow economically without growing their emissions.... And fairness requires that the burden placed on individual developed countries should take into account their ability to bear it; for instance newer EU members, often much poorer than "old Europe", must not suffer more than their richer partners.
Social justice and fairness? I thought this was supposed to be about science.
Thankfully, we still have the internet, and bloggers who still care about uncovering the truth as to climate change. We certainly can't rely on the mainstream newspapers anymore, if we ever could.
Update: Maybe they share the same spiritual adviser, All As One Now.

One blogger wrote: "It's never been about science. Now that the science has been debunked, this issue will morph into whatever issue is on the table as these hooligans make a last desperate attempt to seize global power over the rest of us. There has been too much capital invested over the past 30 or so years to quit now.

WTF? No wonder all the Newspapers are going bankrupt. . . .No one wants to read their propraganda bullsh*t anymore. . . .Most journalist have stopped reporting the news and just want to tell us what to think. . . .

The "Journalist" code of ethics according to Society of Professional Journalist states is:
Seek Truth and Report It - Journalists should be honest, fair and courageous in gathering, reporting and interpreting information.
Minimize Harm - Ethical journalists treat sources, subjects and colleagues as human beings deserving of respect.
Act Independently - Journalists should be free of obligation to any interest other than the public's right to know.
Be Accountable - Journalists are accountable to their readers, listeners, viewers and each other.

Here's 56 newspapers that evidently don't have any "Journalist" that abide by any of these "codes of ethics". . . .
