Mr Brown has already offered to cut Britain's carbon emissions by 42 per cent, the highest proportion of any country and ten times the best deal put forward by the United States - raising the prospect of higher fuel prices and a wave of green taxes.

His latest offer will fuel concerns that Mr Brown is making a disproportionately generous offer on Britain's behalf in a desperate attempt to secure his place in history.

Nothing the Idiot will do to try to buy himself a favourable mention in History with our money surprises me.

But, like the rest of our cash he has squandered, I fear it is all wasted and History, if he gets a mention at all, will remember him for the Pompous Idiot he is.

Not sure if it was posted on here, but he's giving Tata £1.6bn I believe to close down a plant close to me. 1,700 have lost their jobs because GB wants to single handledly (sp?) save the world.

i thought we had already been cutting our carbon emissions inline with targets and it was the likes of USA and china that refused to comply so why not make them invest the money instead of us .At the end of the day we haven't got hardly any manufacturing industries left to produce all this carbon

I think it's good that he is taking climate change seriously. I wish everyone else would and use their cars less and also stop eating animals.

I don't have a car, because at this time I don't need one, but I'm not stopping eating meat. I'm an omnivore, and I'd rather watch the planet drown and then burn than never have another Kobe Steak or another Fry....

well my own opinion is i wish he would take the state of the country seriously and stop poncing about making policy decisions that hopefully won't be implemented because he won't be in power
Ask the people who have lost their jobs or homes this year if they are pleased he wants to spend billions on a climate change agreement that most of the signed up countries probably wont adhere to anyway

The best thing anyone can do to save the planet is to have no children or just one child. The cumulative effects of having children dwarf whatever bad habits a person may have, so by not having children you can drive an SUV to the shops, take a plane into work, not recycle any of your rubbish, and eat however many steaks you want everyday, and still have better eco-credentials than a vegetarian cyclist that recycles all his rubbish and powers his house using solar energy.

Yet we spend around £100+ billion a year on killing people.

I'm doing the planet a favour by eating animals. After all they produce all that nasty methane.

Nor do I have any children, and I sincerely doubt I ever will.

TBH, I'd have had more respect for Gordo if he'd put a couple of billion less into a fund for the third world, and instead put the balance to help fund the research into Nuclear Fusion being carried out in the UK. IMHO, all the other technologies being pushed on the worlds public are merely sticking plasters on an arterial bleeder.

If politicians where really sincere about wanting to tackle the human infulence on climate change, we'd be having a new Manhattan Program for Nuclear Fusion.... The fact that this is not on the cards means that we are screwed....
