The climate talks are a stitch-up, as no one is talking about supply.

By George Monbiot. Published in the Guardian 11th December 2007
Ladies and gentlemen, I have the answer! 
Incredible as it might seem, I have stumbled 
across the single technology which will save us 
from runaway climate change! From the goodness of 
my heart I offer it to you for free. No patents, 
no small print, no hidden clauses. Already this 
technology, a radical new kind of carbon capture 
and storage, is causing a stir among scientists. 
It is cheap, it is efficient and it can be 
deployed straight away. It is called Š leaving 
fossil fuels in the ground.
On a filthy day last week, as governments 
gathered in Bali to prevaricate about climate 
change, a group of us tried to put this policy 
into effect. We swarmed into the opencast coal 
mine being dug at Ffos-y-fran in South Wales and 
occupied the excavators, shutting down the works 
for the day. We were motivated by a fact which 
the wise heads in Bali have somehow missed: if 
fossil fuels are extracted, they will be used.
