The same fallacy as Valle Kincaid threw up.  Kyoto isn't about pollution
in general but about human generation of excess quantities of gases
which contribute to global warming.

So, Ms Cruizer, how about you give us some statistics comparing the CO2
emissions of your great country with those of the Czech republic,
Thailand, Mexico and China?

And if you really think that joining the rest of us in the incredibly
feeble agreement that was made last week means that the US would "bear
all the burden", then clearly you need to find more reliable sources of
information.....
