Did u pull the drive 1 hr in traffic test out of your ass ? I got a US licence by driving exactly 2 blocks Massachusets needs me to answer 14 out 20 rite for the learner permit ?

So the people who have those wooden cabins should be willing to share those cabins. If i m floating on a plank already half in the water and i suffer so ppl in the cabins can enjoy their lives mite as well let the ship sink trying to build my own cabin.

Again if i see contractors have big trucks around here i understand its a part of their business and they need those but i work as a software engineer where most people haul nothing but their ass to work everyday in big trucks. If u are going to need that truck once a year isnt it easier to rent ?

The tone of most comments doesnt seem to be a warning here. We should not let them have it hardly looks like a warning. And sorry for paiting 300 million ppl with the same brush but america as a country has little authority to tell any other country about carbon emissions. Borrowing from another post its like a cokehead telling a kid not to do drugs while snorting up one more line

So you want people to give up benefits of cheap fuel because the US after polluting for more than half a century now thinks it has had enuf and the world shud follow. What kyoto tries to do is give the developing countries an incentive to follow a higher cost path to development. They have problems of ensuring survival of their populations right now and dont have the time or resources to think about what would happen 500 years down the road. If the a chosen few want to live the best of lifestyle while condemning millions to lower lifestyles they might as well not care about what happens later their life aint improving much anyway

Well the US refused to let the CEO of Union carbide be tried in an Indian court of law. Maybe bcoz it was indians that died in the accident ?

Now i dont like to repeat myself but i posted this somewhere else. There is a cost of giving up gasoline. A cost which will mean it will take longer for these countries to get their people out of poverty if they use anything but proven technologies. The developed world has built up its infrastructure and its standard of living by accessing this cheap and readily accessible fuel. The developing has just reached a point where they have mastered the technology to use this fuel and they are being asked to cease and desist. The kyoto protocol which seeks to equalize this has been effectively blocked by the US and maybe their reasons make sense for the US but then stop talking about doing good for the world
