From the Kyoto treaty to smaller commitments people are making to do their bit for the environment, here we set out what is being done to help prevent further damage to the environment, and the big challenges shaping the debate.
Kyoto was a piece of paper, really nothing more. I guess if you have faith in it though who am I to question your faith.
Kyoto has been one of the most influential summits to date, as it sets out a binding protocol for reducing carbon emissions. For countries in the EU, this involves a commitment to reducing carbon emissions by 12.5% by 2012.
Commitments they largely discarded.
What do you think the switch from incandescent lighting, more fuel efficient cars and planes, the developing alternate energy sources is all about?
It is too bad that the US, one of the largest sources of CO2 is so infested with AGW deniers.
The earth heats periodically and the earth cools periodically.
What is happening, if it is happening, will happen regardless of how much money is thrown at it, how much hand wringing is done, how much the UN cries its doomsday wolf message continually. It will continue to happen no matter how much the human race moves back into caves and eschews petroleum products. It will happen because it has been happening since the first mammal crawled out of the primordial ooze.
Get over it.
???
What would a MAMMAL be doing in the primordial ooze?
Yes, boys and girls, this is the level of intelligence we are dealing with.
Well that just isn't good enough for the cultists. They have been brainwashed that the evil old USofA is the problem. I pointed out in another thread the miniscule percentage of co2 in the atmosphere that is attributed to man yet they still bray on.
On another forum, several times, I went with very voluminous posts on the same bent, and was just as summarily ignored. Anthropomorphic hubris is funny to watch, especially when it is combined with near religious fervor that shuns anything remotely smacking of contradiction to established orthodoxy.
And so far I count 4 references to China in this thread, and none of the zealots want to respond to the "what about China" question.
Oh look the IPCC puts out another report that says the same garbage to get the global warming cultists all wound out yet again.
And it would appear all your little talking points found on blogs and tabloids are still garbage. Guess you guys didn't cry about Al Gore enough to make reality what you and clowns like Inhofe want it to be.

That's because your point was irrelevant. And I can't think of a single reason to think you have anything like the qualifications to declare what's signifigant and what's not. You seem to think your opinion holds just as much weight as that of the world's experts. It doesn't.
