As a result of the rather manipulative work of scientists and environmentalists sponsored by certain left-leaning governments, many of the world's people wrongly fear global warming. When it first began rapidly growing in the 1970s, globalization, too, was widely feared in the world. Yet the truth of the matter is, it has actually been good for most of the world by helping accelerate and expand trade relations and create new wealth.
The World Trade Foundation (WTF) is convinced that rather than being a global threat, global warming is more of a worldwide force of change and should be embraced. This WTF Special report is created to educate the public about the truth about global warming and its benefits.
Firstly, it is important to rationally analyze the scientists' fears about global warming. Yes, climates around the world will change. The scientists emphasize that many regions, like the rainforests of South America, will disappear. This is not exactly true. What they neglect to mention is that, in fact, it should be viewed as having those regions shift farther away from the equator rather than completely disappearing. And with their shifting habitats, of course, the animals will move, too. Thus, while global warming may be a force of regional ecological landscaping and extinction, it is a balanced global force, by re-establishing those same ecosystems elsewhere.
Secondly, the WTF wishes to address the fears about the impact on human populations. While the redistribution and shifting of populations will be almost inevitable due to global warming, there are numerous positive impacts associated with this shift. The new combinations of cultures and population changes are ideal opportunities for new business ventures to drive the economy. Recall the Great Famine of Ireland and the subsequent movement of hundreds of thousands of Irish people to North America. Many of these Irish people have used the significantly greater opportunities available to create new businesses such as their many taverns. Had they remained in Ireland, they would not have all been able to profitably create taverns. The benefits of shifting populations are no new revelation: as documented in the Old Testament, the single greatest force behind the establishment of the Promised Land is the exodus that Moses led out of Egypt.
Thus, in analyzing the impact of global warming in a more objective manner, it is evident that it is a force of change rather than evil. That said, the WTF encourages the public to quickly put a stop to the significant damage done to economies worldwide through the socialist scientists' and policitians' "green" movement and embrace the benefits of global warming.

Super-Chavez Me!
BRASILIA -- For the past few decades, Venezuela has been South America's main and only significant outpost of socialism and obstacle to free trade. However, with its biggest supporters in the area being only the separatists in neighbouring Colombia and the misled Native American president of Bolivia, Chavez's centrally-planned Venezuela has largely been ignored.
Yet the World Trade Foundation (WTF) regrets to hear that Brazil may soon join its ranks. The country's president, Luis Inacio Lula Da Silva, has revealed plans for the government to take a larger stake in Brazil's oil resources. Under the new regulations, Brazil's national oil firm, Petrobras, would automatically be entitled to a 30% stake in all ventures into Brazil's oil resources. Additionally, it would be the sole operator in all such ventures.
President Da Silva claims the additional revenue would be used towards helping fight poverty and towards promoting development in the country. This is an unfair distribution of wealth, as foreign oil venturers with more money should be fully entitled to Brazil's resources, no matter what the underlying excuse may be.
Noting the obvious impediment to its primary pillar, free trade, the WTF has already issued calls for restraint and reconsideration. However, it is evident that Da Silva is following the greed and egotism of his Venezuelan counterpart, Chavez, and the WTF may have to resort to adding Brazil to its list of outposts of socialism and obstacles to free trade.
