Enviro Minister AmbroseGlobe and Mail columnist Peggy Wente, so recently converted to the cause of climate change, weighs in again today to say that she โ€œalmostโ€ feels sorry for Canadian Environment Minister Rona Ambrose.

While acknowledging that Ambrose’s proposed Clean Air Act is a joke that won’t begin to address climate change within a realistic time frame, Wente goes on to say that nothing Canada does will solve the problem worldwide.

(Aside from, perhaps, showing leadership and establishing a national economic advantage in developing alternative energy technology, she’s right. But I lose the thread of her argument. What’s her point: that we should give up?)

Wente concludes that โ€œGlobal warming is like peacekeeping, only harder.โ€ And you can rest assured that she’s gonna stay belted in her SUV, broaching no risk that she might chip a nail answering to either challenge.
