Again, in case you missed it: check our record against the other nations who actually signed onto Kyoto. And, er, 'slightly less'?
i guess this picture proves it folks, they traveled into the future to make sure and china didn't become a worse polluter until some time in 2017.
First of all, I thought we were talking about 'pollution'. That graph is talking about CO2. Second of all, my wife just returned from China. She described with her own eyes, and took photographs, of the incredibly bad POLLUTION. We have NOTHING like that here, not even close. When did people stop caring about reality and start worrying so much about fairy tales?
Why does Kyoto matter? Why not compare the U.S. with all other nations regardless if they agreed with or took part in some protocol?
Because that is what is behind all of this 'condemnation' of the United States and our supposed 'not caring' about pollution or 'emissions'. The United States has been more active and more successful than any of those other nations at curbing 'emissions', but since we refused (under Clinton mind you, and unanymously rejected by Congress as well) to enter into a ruinous treaty which would have required the United States to pay staggering sums of MONEY into some kind of world-body wealth-redistribution system, we are 'condemned' as 'not caring'. All of this garbage has nothing to do with climate or emissions or anything else other than MONEY.
