here is what the ipc says. they are actually correct on this except it takes them 38 bureaucratic words to say it. in the long term, rent is maintained at maintaining our foreign carbon stock -- that is what they called trees -- [laughter] will generate the largest sustained mitigation benefit. that means the best thing to do. in other words, they are saying use trees instead of using steel and concrete wherever you can and you will be using something renewable. greenpeace says the ip ct says the easiest and cheapest way to protect -- to prevent climate change is to stop cutting trees. that is not true. the ipct is just saying grow more trees, use more words. six words. [laughter] [applause] there is the ipcc -- sorry, how did i get there? read the second one worse. extremely likely -- does it make it more likely to put the word extremely in front of it? they say yes. that means 99% because very likely is 90%. so they put percent along with adjectives to go with likely. what it turns out is that this is not a s

if you look at the two ipc studies that have been done just in the last year on digital trade, u.s. gdp has grown from 3.5 to 4.8% based on 2011 figures. u.s. wages have increased by as much as 5%. so there are real concrete benefits. again, that's u.s. centric. but there are other studies like the mckenzie study on digital trade that created what we found to be very interesting, that connectivity index. and if you look at that, what they found was that the more connected a country was, the greater the benefit it enjoyed from increases to gdp to employment across the board by 40%. and so again, i think that's part of what we're trying to do and communicate, a sense that we're in this together, that, yes, we as the u.s. enjoy benefit bus so does the rest of the world. >> okay. we will make that the final word, but i do want to thank daniel, christine, lexon, richard, and james for sharing their thoughts with us. and thank you very much for oming out.

you don't have to take the ipc's word, the framework convention, all of those people sounding the alarmou can wake up pretty much every day and listen to mother nature who is screaming at us. >> tomorrow, president obama will speak and join more than 120 world leaders at a day-long climate summit. >>> david, i think the thing about this is you still have the no-nothings, the science deniers, the clown card i like to call them on the republican side, mostly republicans, who absolutely refuse any scientific evidence who say that this isn't something we should worry about let alone do anything about. >> well this is mostly politically. in the scientific community, there is a 97% consensus that global warming is real. it's con deuced and we better do something quick. >>> in the political arena, you have 80% deniers. they're given more say than they deserve rather than laugh them out of the room. prior to that clown car, they still keep coming up to the fight. all they have to do is come to a draw, say there are questions out there. for the public to be not as engaged to this. there's not a

affairs, we have come out of that period that is enhanced by the cold war and to think of international÷ípçairs as the matter of relations between human beings. with those alliancesx5> between the state from international affairs. we may be on the brink of the new definition of terrorism and with the relations between all human beings and the challenges that come from global climate change, a food and water shortages and infectious diseases. as our panelists observed today, the realities that change may be more honest than the recognition to respond, but i am pleased to say the community in a wider circle have come together today to deal with that issue is no way that the school of foreign service is is not equipped. but we appreciate those particular a dan and john to help us think about international affairs in a way that may be more appropriate for the 21st century and thanks for being so appreciative as an audience. >> here at georgetown and the longtime economic adviser i think we are ready to go. we have a connection. >> afternoon madam president. thank you very+=z-! for taking the
