    Or maybe you will find a way to bash the US no matter what the facts are?

        No, I was pointing out how your statement do not hold much weight because of your bias. You give yourself too much credit. I'm in the very rich country of the US making a lot of money, you have to do a lot more than that to get me upset.

          Statistically speaking, US is the most polluting country in the world, producing 25% of the pollution alone, and it is not even the most populated. http://www.guardian.co.uk/climatechange/story/0,12374,1644199,00.html[^] http://www.hindu.com/2005/11/18/stories/2005111803861100.htm[^] Just 2 links. Big cities in Asia are among the most polluted in the world, but they don't contribute to global warming as much as the USA. Think about it: 5% of the population producing 25% of the greenhouse effect gas in the world. That is a lot. -------- "I say no to drugs, but they don't listen." - Marilyn Manson

                      Good, now, when you have an open mind, and can get a grip on your own green bias against the US, maybe a open debate will be enjoyable between both parties.

                                I think so. It seems to be why the US bailed out. But, frankly, I doubt it. This is just my opinion. You can flame me. Everybody has a right to his opinion. -------- "I say no to drugs, but they don't listen." - Marilyn Manson

                                      I'd be happy to. your quote:"Partly agree. It may be that the US used that excuse only to appear to have a good reason not to sign the agreement." Ok, when the US said that the Kyoto agreement was unfair to US workers, you blew it off as it was just an excuse. "It may be that the US used that excuse only to appear to have a good reason not to sign the agreement." Why would the US not sign it without a good reason??? Does the US just want to piss you off just because? A person can only have slanted reasoning if they are biased or completly insane. I guessing that you are sane, so you must be biased.

                                        there is no real way of knowing why the US didn't sign on because to do so requires the approval of a majority of the US Senate and neither Clinton nor Bush were willing to submit it for approval because they both felt, but didn't know it wouldn't be ratified.

                                          I think so. It seems to be why the US bailed out. But, frankly, I doubt it. This is just my opinion. You can flame me. Everybody has a right to his opinion. -------- "I say no to drugs, but they don't listen." - Marilyn Manson

                                          Ok, I am not going to flame you. I am asking most sincerly. What evidence do you have to doubt this? Is it just a gut feeling? And yes, you do have a right to your opinion. But others also have a right to challege it.
