Hey Harper You Moron! Welcome to Climate Change
Today Hurricane Sandy is destroying the Eastern Atlantic Seaboard and scientists have blamed its fury on the climate change's effect on the ocean's temperature: the warmer sea has increased the hurricane's intensity.
Despite more and more devastating signs to our Earth, Harper continues to promote the destructive Tar Sands in Alberta and does little to fund alternate green energy.
Germany, a world leader in conversion to green energy, must be laughing at him!
