i'm in Wisconsin, and with the news always talking about global warming, i look outside and we had a high of zero most of last week, and it's still freezing. Then you got New York who's piled under at least ten feet of snow.
When people are talking about CO2 immishions, they talk about America and her cars (i got a little Ford escort, not a Tank-like Hummer). Wouldn't coal make more CO2 (since burning carbon would put more carbon dioxide into the air)?
Some countries like China are burning way more coal than we are, but with that Kyoto plan, USA needs to reduce our coal usage, but China is given even more leeway, does that make sence?
So i guess my questions can be summed up with
1.) If we are suffering from global warming, WHY ISN'T IT GETTING WARMER??
and
2.) If global warming really is a real threat, why doesn't the world focus on the biggest purpetrators, instead of the country with the most money?
wow this is a long question, i'm sorry.
