You know you're f***d when ... your secretary of state talks about stoves globally

“Our long term goal is to have universal adoption all over the world,” says Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

(CNSNews.com) - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced a Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves Tuesday at a meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative.

The goals of the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves are multi-tiered. “First, a major applied research and development effort to improve design, lower costs and develop global industry standards for cookstoves”, Clinton said. “Second, a broad-based campaign to create a commercial market for clean stoves, including reducing trade barriers, promoting consumer awareness and boosting access to large scale carbon financing.”

The U.S. is to fund $50 million over five years to provide clean cooking stoves to developing countries. Clinton says it’s in order to reduce deaths from smoke inhalation and fight climate change.



Led by the United Nations Foundation, the alliance aims to have 100 million homes using clean stoves and fuels by 2020. “Our long term goal is to have universal adoption all over the world,” said Clinton.

The new alliance gathers U.S. government agencies with the United Nations Foundation, Germany, Norway, Peru the World Health Organization and corporate backers including Morgan Stanley and Shell.

This isn't the first time Clinton has pushed for market standards in industry. While Senator in 2007, Hillary Clinton pushed for new energy standards phasing out incandescent light bulbs. Reports now claim that measure has forced American jobs to go overseas.

I'll even spell it right. We're fucked.

Okay, I can see the value in saving the environment.....

Hillary! Stupid Bitch!!! HOW MANY HUNGRY AMERICANS ARE YOU GOING TO STARVE TO DEATH FOR YOUR BULLSHIT PROGRAM???

(sigh) Thank you...at least now I feel better.... Maybe you're right AO...maybe she's not stupid and is just enacting her Machiavellian ends. That said....maybe I've been here a little too long but I'm really starting to think that the only thing left that will fix this problem (entire) is to start putting bullets in our leaderships' brains. Period.

I doubt very much she used a stove in her life but I'm 100% she's not stupid, weak or not capable and that all she's doing is telling us what's next in their agenda ... our food.
