I doubt that you have really understood the IPCC's recommendations,
).
That is exactly the rules the UN/IPCC have put into place....developed countries have to lower emissions...developed countries have to pay undeveloped countries..
...and in the mean time, developing countries do not have to lower emissions...until the UN decides that they have made enough money
The UN says China is a developing country...since then China has increased their emissions so much..that China now emits twice as much CO2 as the USA
The UN also says Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and about 200 other countries are developing countries.
The USA, without joining anything, has lowered it's emissions back to the same level it was in 1992...CO2 levels were ~350ppm in 1992...left up USA CO2 levels would be back down to 350ppm
...the increase in pollution you call it...has not come from the USA
Apart from the bit about CO2 being deadly poisonous, as nobody has said that..
Liberals act like it is.....the UN/IPCC acts like it is...every 10 years we only have 10 more years or we're doomed.....planets going to be destroyed....sorta fits the deadly poison meme
The only "climate hysteria" is on the part of the climate deniers. The throw good science out the window because they have a deep seated fear that they won't be able to keep their 400hp V8 4-door Ultra Pickups that only get 14 mpg. It's all very childish, really.
...Meanwhile, 1700 private jets flew to Davos to discuss the dangers of.... sandwiches!
Anyway, it's perfectly normal for temperatures to increase during an Inter-Glacial Period, and there's nothing extraordinary, abnormal, unusual or unprecedented about the recent increase.
24 times in the last 100,000 years, the temperature has fluctuated 14.4°F to 20°F in mere years or decades, so a tiny 0.2°C/0.36°F rise over a century is hardly cause for alarm.
There has never been a natural 20 deg F climate swing in the last 100k years. Link to reputable source?
Well in that case why don't we make you an astronaut because who's to say you don't know more than NASA on spaceflight?
Who needs credentials when you can just claim you know more than someone who's spent their lives studying these fields?
Well, you cannot rely on experts because experts are paid for their expertise and therefore are not trustworthy. That is the logic with which you are dealing on this thread.

How can I trust my mechanic if I have to pay him?
