Editor’s comment: Meanwhile, on planet idiocracy #PopeBars is trending.
In his most apocalyptic language to date, Pope Francis told reporters aboard the papal plane returning from Africa that the COP21 climate change conference in Paris is the last chance for humanity to avert environmental destruction.
The pope discussed global warming and other issues during an hour-long press conference aboard the papal plane following his six-day trip to Africa.
Asked whether he believes that the leaders gathered in Paris will take important steps to combat climate change, Francis said, “I’m not sure, but I can say that it is now or never.”
Little was accomplished at the 1997 Kyoto conference, Francis said, and since then “every year the problems are more serious.”
The Pope recounted discussing with college students about what sort of world we want to leave our children, when one of the students asked: “But are you sure that there will be children from this generation?”
“We are on the edge of suicide,” Francis said, “but I am sure that just about everybody meeting in Paris is aware of this and wants to do something.”
“The other day I read that in Greenland the glaciers have lost billions of tons,” Francis continued. “In the Pacific there is a country that is buying another country in order to move, because in 20 years it’s going to disappear. I believe in these people, that they will do something. I hope so, and I pray for it,” he said.
The Pope also had strong words regarding Africa’s place in the world, calling it a “victim” and a “martyr” that has “always been exploited by other powers.”
“There are powers that only look to take possession of Africa’s great riches,” he said, “but they don’t think about helping the African nations to grow, or about creating jobs.”
“That’s why I love Africa,” he said, “because it has been the victim of other powers.”

Obama’s Trip To The UN “Global Warming” Summit Emits More CO2 Than Driving 72 Cars For A Year
President Barack Obama may warn that carbon dioxide is causing global warming, but his flight to Paris to join other world leaders at the United Nations climate summit emitted more CO2 than driving 72 cars for a year.
Obama’s Paris jaunt will send more CO2 into the atmosphere than 31 American homes‘ energy usage for an entire year. The president’s trip is equivalent to burning 368,331 pounds of coal or 797 barrels of oil, according to the Environmental Protection Agency’s carbon footprint calculator.
Just one leg of the president’s Sunday trip to Paris emitted 189 tons of CO2 after travelling 3,855 miles and burning 19,275 gallons of jet fuel, according to Daily Caller News Foundation calculations based on past presidential flights. Obama’s return flight to Washington, D.C., would double the amount of CO2 burned to 378 tons — more than 72 cars driving for a year.
Obama has been criticized for past plane rides in the name of fighting global warming. Earlier this year, Obama flew down to the Everglades for Earth Day and was hammered for potentially damaging the fragile eco-system and costing taxpayers more than $866,000.
World leaders will meet Monday in Paris to kick off the U.N.’s 21st attempt to get countries to sign onto a global agreement to cut carbon dioxide emissions. Obama wants signing a climate treaty to be a part of his presidential legacy, and administration staff have been working tirelessly to convince other countries, like China, to agree to emissions cuts.
