Well I was referring to people on the list. While i wish all nations ratified it, the Protocols as ratified by 163 countries is a huge first step towards all nations ratifying it or similar next gneration GHG agreements. And and worlds worst polluter is not exempted from cleaning up their pollution per se. The US refused to ratify it after signing it. China and India have the potential to be the largest, but at .76 and .29 tons of carbon emissions per capita they have a long way to go to gain the black distinction of exceeding the US at 5.37 Does a 5-15 year dealy in China and India agreeing to such accords worth throwing the baby out with the bath water? (Indeed C&I may be forced into it earlier by market pressure -- that is world markets refuse to by non-carbon compensated goods.) ------------------------ Yahoo!
