Expert Warns of Climate Change at Chabad of CBD

MELBOURNE — Rabbi Chaim Herzog the Shliach of Chabad of Melbourne CBD organized a very successful business men & women’s luncheon on a very relevant topic in today’s time and world the topic was, “Taking Action On Climate Change.”

The speaker was Mark Dreyfus QC MP, Mr Dreyfus is not only the Federal Minister for Issacs, but also a cabinet secretary as well as Parliamentary secretary for climate change and energy efficiency.

Mr. Dreyfus stressed that taking action today on climate change would leave the world a better place for our children.

Climate change is a huge problem, the more people, the more green gas being released into the air and the carbon emissions lead to climate change.

In November 1996, the Kyoto Protocol Scheme was formed this will end in its present form in 2012.

Most of the worlds developed countries signed it including India and China – the U.S.A did not.

You cannot organize 192 countries at one time so they were broken up into smaller groups. The next Kyoto Protocol World Conference will take place next year in Durban.

Question time as a big hit a lot of questions were asked and successfully answered.

Did you know that Australia is the largest exporter of coal in the world and that because we have had a late start in dealing with green house gases we can expect a 2 degree temperature rise and a one metre rise in waters, at the end of 2050.

A scrumptious catered lunch was then served.

    A shande! Now shluchim are promoting this myth in the service of communist propoganda?!?! What’s next? Lectures on the evils of empirialist capitalism??

    The only climate change a shliach should teach is as chassidus teaches, when a yid walks or goes somewhere he should say words of Torah, Mishnayos, Tanya, Tehilim, etc. This will have a positive affect on the climate.

    The whole political climate change agenda is a hoax, This is not a topic a shliach should promote.

  • Spiritual Climate

    The shliach would be better off trying to openly promote spiritual climate change.
