Seems that they expect China to have more CO2 Emmissions than the US in 2007.   Now I was thinking about this and I think we might be able to blame Nixon for this.   Didn'the open up trade with China, which caused industry to increase, which caused a need for more energy, which caused more CO2 emmissions to be released?

See Republicans can be blamed for everything   LOL

Given without all seriousness intended.

Ken, in all seriousness (intended), do you measure your worth in relation to China? Why would you do that?

The way I read it, was the EU and UN were doing the equating, not me.   Besides   I don't measure my worth.   The way I feel these days I am worthless - gotta be able to breathe better before I can start counting those pennies again.   LOL

Ken Really! That would make as much sense as Mr. Gore, and the other private jet set purveyors of global warming gloom and doom, measuring up to the rest of us! Ridiculous.

This year? I thought they passed that mark in 2002?
But, we NEED more cheap, plastic, imported JUNK from China, right?
I mean if they stopped it people wouldn't have stuff to sell at "Garage Sales" and "Yard Sales" right?
Hey, I need another cheap plastic laundry basket that was made in China.
My other cheap plastic laundry basket that was made in China is falling apart. (Literally.)

I think it will all end when there is one world one government one language.  Not that I am for that, but that is the only thing I can think of.

Uh, try Walmart.

Even if they do paint their stores nice patriotic colors, a huge % of the crap I unload from ships coming from China and Indonesia is destined for their stores.
