We're all living on borrowed time.......we were warned in 1922......the ice is melting and the oceans are rising.........LOL..........buy a vowel

A 1922 newspaper article reported that "radical change in climatic conditions" was melting Arctic ice and disrupting wildlife.

what's it going to take for you to tell it to China, who has not only countered every reduction the US has made in the last 10 years, but exceeded that amount by more than 4x?

If AGW is the problem, you folks need to get the UN to start condemning China like daily instead of worrying about Israel.

I wish China and India would do more, I would expect greater motivation just because of their horrid air quality. The US is still the number one polluter per capita in spite of our reductions. We have been number one for the last century and we were well aware of the problem 50 years ago but ignored it until recently.

We should be addressing both problems, they are serious. Problem is by the way that the EPA has been rolling back restrictions on Dupont and other companies. Loss of bees, destruction of wetlands loss of pure drinking water, all are important.

well yeah...but global warming has completely taken over everything...$trillions on a problem that either can't be fixed, or the main guilty parties will not fix and have every intention of increasing it

$trillions that could have been spent on real problems....and actually succeeded in fixing a lot of them by now

Since you asked this question I'm guessing that you also deny climate change. The problem is, you revealed your last of science education in what you posted here.
