#1 Ignorant headline writer. "India ignores Kyoto demands" is not true -- India signed on because Kyoto makes no demands of India.

#2 Correct, Darrell.

And even if it did, it wouldn't stop global warming.

Kyoto with all signatories behaving would slow global warming by a paltry 3 months.

That never makes the headlines. The UN glosses over that.

Kyoto DOESN'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

NOTHING can fix climate change.

The planets climate has always changed, sometimes fast sometimes slow.

This is a colossal waste of money. The archetypal UN junket feeding a pile of corrupt bureaucrats who jet about and stay in 5 star hotels living off crap like this.

If you wanna make a quick buck off the madness of crowds, go start up a climate change consultancy. Jet about charging the UN $2000 an hour to educate Guatemalans on global warming.

Get paid for your hot air!!

trade in carbon credits: now there's a first.

invent a shonky technology that can pass as removing carbon from the atmosphere and sell your services for carbon credits.
Doesn't matter that it doesn't work because even if you stop all emissions now global warming will NOT stop.

#3 A DoD study some years back found it fesible to dump iron and fertlizer in patchs of the southern oceans to create huge carbon sinks. The tests worked and it wasn't that expensive.

#4 It's also a very bad idea to start messing with chaotic systems you don't fully understand. It has a way of biting you on the ass, and THAT'S the trufe.
