for the past 50 years.....this has been nothing but a scam to move money to China...and so far, it's working

and "we" (USA) have to do something about it......and they (China) don't.......what a scam LOL
We have been the number one generator of CO2 for a century, claiming that China is now worse isn't much of a victory. 50 years ago we were the worst, now we are still near the top.

CO2 reduction is associated with global cooling and ice ages. Is that really what we want?
It's called a balance and right now it's out of balance because of increased use of fossil fuels.

If it's supposedly out of balance, why is the Antarctic ice sheet growing? That sounds like glaciation to me.

The human race is the problem. The only problem.
The rest is natural climate change.
The dinosaurs didn’t drive cars or have factories.

that is so lame....only a complete idiot would fall for it

50 years ago...CO2 levels were 325ppm....that was considered safe.....remember 350.org?...we must limit CO2 levels to 350ppm or we're all going to die....if we go over 350 it's irreversible and we're all going to die

..the increase in CO2 in the past 50 years has come from China...not from the USA

left up to the USA...CO2 levels would still be "safe"...at below 350ppm

Why are you making excuses for China?

Nah, perhaps after you list the ones authored by people either employed by fossil fuel companies, or associated think tanks, etc. Lol.

Wow, I didn't realize it got that cold in Texas. I always thought of it as a warm state, like Florida. Here in Miami, it's been low 80s/high 70s and balmy for the last few weeks. We do get chilly, but that's 60s for us, not snow or ice.
