$45 Trillion to Combat Global Warming

We are now well beyond the "jump the shark" moment on the global warming joke. According to the International Energy Agency, we now need to spend $45 trillion to halve greenhouse emissions by 2050.

For a situation in which global temperatures were 0.7 degrees higher in 2007 than in 1998, I think the world's environmental alarmists should be laughed off the world's stage with such a ludicrous suggestion.
