The Church of Global Warming says Kyoto should be signed. Yet, the Church's own members in Congress have done nothing to get the deal signed. Even the High Priest, Al Gore-bachov, after winning the IgNoble Prize for his great error filled environMental hit-piece... has failed to offer up Kyoto to our great Congress to vote Yea or Nay.

Don't you find it amazing that Congress can pass several 'non-binding' resolutions and not even dare touch Kyoto?

All politicians that gerbils LOVE to have in their ass for argument 'against' are around to placate dumshits like...um U.

Market place blah, blah.

Government, Blah blah...

X-gen practical transformation...REALITY.

You really are a technological reactionary...um...idiot.

If the top three emitters do not sign it then it is dead . . . no two ways about it. Who is going to impose economic sanctions on the US, China, and India?

I have found this thread to be very educational, but why should the kyoto treaty even be discussed when science can't agree that global warming is false or true?

Because that's what the environMental cultists want. This is a hoax and a power grab by the far Left.


Global Warming is a religion. Where's the 'separation of church and state' when we need it?

CAP AND BLOCKADE
The absurdity of the growth-retarding Kyoto Protocol and similar "cap and trade" schemes are enormously expensive and relatively ineffective at addressing climate change, says Julian Morris, executive director of International Policy Network.

Consider the predicament of former communist and current European Union (EU) members:

Eastern European emissions fell substantially in the early 1990s following the collapse of communism, as they replaced an aging power infrastructure and closed down inefficient industries.

But rapid economic growth in these former communist countries also fueled their greenhouse gas emissions -- though they are still well below their 1990 levels.

When the EU cut their emission allocations far below the levels those governments had originally expected, it meant fewer permits for the new member countries to sell.

This will drive up the price of each permit, making everyone else in the EU pay more for their emissions.


In addition, even if the Kyoto Protocol were fully implemented, its effect on the climate would barely be discernible, says Morris:

It would merely delay the projected warming by less than a decade over the course of the next century.

Meanwhile, the economic cost has been estimated at between 0.1 percent and 3 percent of gross world product.

Even at the lower end, that is an enormous price to pay for essentially no benefit.


A more cost-efficient and effective alternative would be to invest in new technologies that could cut greenhouse gas emissions in the future, says Morris. One way is to impose a small but rising tax on carbon. Such a tax would motivate private-sector investments in climate forecasting, since companies would want to know what the tax level was likely to be in coming years. This would introduce long-needed competition and progress in a field currently dominated by government funding.

Well thankfully he hasn't just yet. He has actually told his party mininsters and etc, to go and visit homeless shelters, public schools and hospitals. His initial objectives seem to be education and health, he has yet to mention anything about the Kyoto protocol or withdrawing troops from Iraq.
One wonders that after he has done the customonial visit with GWB/US government, his attitude will change.
It will be a miracle if he didn't cowtow to your government.
The Kyoto Protocol is out of date for a start and defunct, its nothing more than a last ditch effort from the Far Right to appease the "Growing Collective" of "The People" of Earth, the global citizen, not the nationalistic rantings of a previous age, and traitors.
Kyoto won't save the planet, because the planet doesn't need saving, only us the "Stupid and Ignorant" humans. If we don't save ourselves, it only stand to reason, that Mother Earth will get rid of us to save herself.
