Good evening, Jack. :2wave:

Why not; everyone in this Country is very wealthy, and the EU isn't facing bankruptcy with hoards of refugees from the ME to feed and house, right ? Craziness! :thumbdown:

Well, what'd you expect?

The Western advanced nations offer up a weak position, susceptible to exploitation and extortion, and you expect the other nations to not try to do exactly that?
:lamo

How naive! (Of this president and this administration)

Many of the developing countries don't feel they are responsible for AGW - the industrialized countries are, in their opinion, according to what I have read. Has anyone heard what China has to say, other than they intend to keep using coal? I wonder what explanation we will be given, since BHO really wanted this deal made. Will we be told that we must still lead the way in showing the world that emissions of CO2 must be reduced for the good of the planet's future, so if our utility bills increase, that's the price we in America must pay? That would not surprise me, since I read the next global meeting in 2016 has already been scheduled......

Greetings, Polgara. :2wave:

You are trying to put some sort of rationalizations and logic to a completely irrational and illogical situation. You should probably stop. :)
