Ginger Briggs, a columnist for The Big Issue, finds this quote from Myron Ebell, a member of the Competitive Enterprise Institute:

Given that the negative impacts of climate change are expected to hit developing countries first, this suggest that for the United States at least, net impacts might be positive for a greater amount of temperature change.

It’s bad enough that countries like the US and Australia ignore the call to economic reform to save the planet. Now we can be heartless enough to view global warming as a tool for greater economic power over the third world. Don’t we control the poor enough?

I need to pray.
