One may argue that the ultimate shortsightedness is to shut your eyes and say nothing is wrong. Being critical to the environmental impact of human behaviour isn't synonymous with having a grudge against Americans. That's just paranoid. Two simple facts are that USA happens to be the most-emitting nation at the moment, and that China looks due to overtake USA within a couple of years. A third fact, which other people are keen to remind us of, is that Norway have the largest per capita ecological footprint on the planet. Like you, I could point to my nation's low population density and that we have been pioneers on many aspects of environmentalism before others knew the meaning of the word. It would still be BS, so get a different set of glasses, Graywolf. You're rocking the boat we all s(h)it in. > Some of us do know the difference between shitting in > our neighbors yard, and a 20,000 year long ice age cycle. The ice age cycle is 150,000 years. The previous glaciation _ended_ 20,000 years ago. That's not the same as a full cycle. I don't understand what you mean with "shitting in our neighbours yard" in this context. > And by the way > the non-usa people you are talking about only seem to live in > scandinavia and australia.
