Americans won't stop using cars and gases- Americans are not willing to take the step. And the legislation trying to be passed and being used in other countries has nothing to do with stopping these companies- it has to do with taxing the people and selling 'carbon credits' to the corporations so they can continue with their business as usual. Things will not drastically change for these companies- and the people will not stop using these companies as long as they are available, regardless of how much they think it's hurting the environment. People can SAY they care all they want- it is the action that makes their words true.

This scam, if let to play out, will effectively tax the majority, profit the few, yet also, make it even harder for smaller privately owned business to ever try to merge into these fields of business.

lol, how do you figure? the people who use entities that produce co2 will be charged a direct tax on this..

thats like saying that the car companies/manufactures will be given speeding tickets because they produced the cars which the people abused. it doesnt work that way, and the end cost will be given to the consumers.

the only thing they want is another tax, this time on the world populace for anyone that produced Co2...

also, you know that the big companies sleep with the gov't anyways and i doubt they would get taxed on their co2 output.

only through peace and knowledge will we obtain true freedom

i personally believe more co2 is actually not a bad thing... it creates bigger, healthier, robust, vigorous, and just better plants which will create more oxygen in return... within limits obviously....JMHO

pollution on the other hand is bad!!!! co2 is natural and in proportion(under 1500ppm, our air is currently ~300ppm) is completely safe and healthy for our environment.

what we need to do is look more into using hemp as a catalyst to save our trees. we need to use hydrogen to run our cars.

oil and fossil fuels are not the answer, just think about if we never struck oil in the first place, im sure our ingenious minds could think of dozens of other alternative fuel sources to power our growing world... the only hinder now, is the oil companies monopoly controlling our gov't to an extent which discards novel ingenious alternative sources.

The Koyoto Treaty is an economic disaster ready to happen.

There is no proof that Man is the cause of so called Global Warming. The earth goes through temperature cycles ... and has since time began.

There are huge amounts of money at stake here ... and that's the scam of Global Warming.

What do body temperatures have to do with CO2?


Why is this 'global warming movement' so anti-humanistic? I'm so sick of the propaganda, 'if only those damn humans weren't here, the earth would be a great place to live'.

The historical geological evidence shows that temperature always starts rising before co2 increases.. geological evidence also shows that co2 has been much much higher. Geological evidence also shows that the earth's temperatures have been much higher. Evidence also shows that our air contains less OXYGEN now more than ever, especially in metropolitan areas.

What do we give plants so they are more productive? Co2... What do humans need to perform better? Oxygen.. What increases oxygen? Plant life converting co2 into oxygen.

At higher levels of co2, plants grow faster, have heavier yields, and are more comfortable with warmer temperatures.

At about 300pm of co2 in our normal air.. our plants are STARVING for co2. As growers, WE SHOULD KNOW THIS.



We're having more and more food shortages in the world, and ever rising food prices.. but they want to starve the crops more?!?!

Please people, just think. Stop with the double think. You can't reasonably understand the co2/oxygen circle and still think higher co2 levels is a bad thing... it's the LACK of co2 we need to be concerned about.. honestly, we should have factories PRODUCING co2...
