I don't let myself being provoced (sorry for grammatical mistakes) by you again like in former times, Miditek. :wink:
But just that you know, for me global warming is not a political issue anymore; I simply mentioned GWB because BEG put up some questions about him why he's not signing the Kyoto protocol. For me it's cristal clear that US output of CO2 is far from being the only problem; the growing industry nations like China, Brazil or India are becoming more and more serious factors. And also Europe, which often claims to be precursor in green industries, must be careful to watch its mouth - or one day REALLY do something.
I really really pity those who still are so bullheaded to shrug off any debate about Climate change and mankind's influence to it as "left-winged hypocrite propaganda". You still keep your eyes closed and ignore the problem by blaming others to be too political. This is not a political, but a global issue.

PS1: Oh yes, and I really studied meteorology. 8) I'm not a scientist, but I think I have a bit of a wider view than many others.
PS2: What you are doing is generalizing. The stone throwers of Rostock are left-winged extremists, radicals - they have nothing to do with reasonable discussions about globalization, climate change, etc. Don't mix that up!

What is the Kyoto Agreement exactly? ??? Has anyone here ever read its exact words?
I haven't.
I wonder if there is a website which has the contents of this agreement posted verbatim. ???

It's an agreement to cut greenhouse gas emissions with 5,2 % from the level of emission in 1990.

Duh :lol: I know that. I'm talking about WHAT it says on the contract AKA= fine print. :) There has to be something drawn up in a contract form to sign.
I'll see if I can find it on the net somewhere. ???

BTW, welcome back, Carcass! Missed your lively debates here! :)

Thanks! :) I'm in my homevillage for the summer, so I won't be wasting my time in front of the computer too much.

Yeah, I'm more busier than usual these days, too, with gardening&all. But learning stuff, even on a discussion forum, is never a waste, IMO! :)

I've heard Summer in Finland can be a fun blast, so I don't blame you, Carcass! :D
