Is the kyoto-agreement a non-issue?

Question

Al Gore, on his visit to Finland said that the Kyoto-Agreement will be adopted by the next administration regardless of which party it'll be.

Does this mean that this is a non-issue in elections? Seems like the only reason why it isn't adopted in the US right now is because of the current president/administration. I seem to recall that it was turned down because it would be "too costly"- but apparantly it wont be too costly to the new administration.

Or is this whistful thinking on Gore's part? A political lie in order to get everyone else into line behind the Kyoto agreement- like China and India who haven't joined because the biggest "polluter", the US, hasn't joined?

Answer 1

The kyoto agreement is simply a socialist scheme to steal money from America and give it to the UN to squander away.

Answer 2

Tony Blair just hired Al Gore as a advisor on global warming. Bliar predicts global warming will cost the UK 5 to 20 percent of the GDP. Blair also predicts in our lifetime we will see another great deppression like in the 1930s because of lack of action on the part of the USA. Blair and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger just signed a agreement to curb green house gasses. As you know, Bush and Republicans rejected the Kyoto treaty and claim it will cost our economy too much.
BTW, 2200 very educated people agree with Al Gore and Blair. Bush and the Republicans like Rush think they are smarter than that 2200 people who wrote Kyoto.

Answer 3

To all you libs out there if Kyoto is such an important agreement why would exempt some of greatest environmentally polluting countries such as China, India, Mexico, these nations did not decide they would not join there were exempt.
