| #3 Contrast this eminently sensible program with the Kyoto inspired lunacy of capturing methane flaring it off hence creating CO2 to earn carbon credits which then can be sold so others can release more CO2. Link BTW, I have come across a number of approving refernces to this because it shows Kyoto 'is working.' FYI atmospheric methane naturally degrades in about 10 years whereas CO2 remains in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. |

| #2 Upon the Kyoto agreement coming into force for its signatories last week, Gregg Easterbrook noted in The New Republic that "The world's first international anti-global-warming agreement to take force is not the Kyoto treaty. It is a Bush Administration initiative, and you have not heard a peep regarding the initiative because the American press corps is pretending it does not exist." Easterbrook's no friend of W, even though he does a good TMQ column at NFL.com, which makes this pleasantly surprising |

| #1 Actually, it may be a good idea to paste the article here, despite that it does not require registration. Just for the sake of dissemination of good info. The more exposure, the better. |
