Germany Unveils World’s Biggest Candle To Light Global Warming

by | 30th, November 2009

8081642A STEEPLE is covered with red cloth to form the world’s largest candle at the Christmas market in Schlitz, Germany. The candle is made of a stone tower which measures 36 metres in height and is covered with red cloth of more than 1000 square metres.

Approximately 140 light bulbs are adjusted to the steeple top in the form of a flame, measuring 6 metres in height.

From the top you can see Copenahgen and the green ministers who have flown  in to talk about climate change…

In other climate change news, boffins at the University of East Anglia (UEA) Climatic Research Unit – the world’s leading centre for reconstructing past climate and temperatures – have “admitted throwing away much of the raw temperature data on which their predictions of global warming are based.”

This means that following those emails about scientists colluding to stymie debate on climate change and set the science in stone, other weather watchers cannot check the sums.

How unlucky is that?
