December 9, 2009 (LPAC)—Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk today accepted (and probably had "invited") the resignation of Dr. Maciej Nowicki, who served as Minister of the Environment since November 2007. Nowicki, a global-warming believer, had pushed a green agenda during his two-year tenure, with such activities as blocking construction of much-needed highways that allegedly would pass over a small "wetland" or wooded area. Nowicki had chaired last year's climate conference in Poznan, Poland, as the president of the fourteenth Conference of the Parties (COP 14), the group that meets to discuss the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change treaty. He opened the ongoing conference in Copenhagen Monday, turning over the chair of COP 15 to Denmark.

Nowicki said yesterday that he was resigning for personal reasons, but the word in Warsaw is that he was fired because of his support for global warming and limits to growth. There has been a lively debate in the Polish media in recent weeks about the real science of climate, including exposes of the Malthusian ideology behind the global-warming swindle. The government leadership reportedly views global warming as a hoax.

Lyndon LaRouche commented on the resignation: "That's because the Poles pride themselves on not being heathens. Some Polish people believe in civilization, contrary to the British policy."
