Hey Dennis you ignorant putz - the Senate has to ratify it.
As one of the major sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide, The Irreverent Al must of realized he'd be a hypocrite for supporting greenhouse legislation
"Capitalism will destroy the Earth and only Socialism can save it."
People, how many time do you need to be proven wrong?
Same song, second verse.....
Sen. Joe Lieberman: "Yes. I attended and supported the work at the international conferences in Buenos Aires and Kyoto. Recently, Senator John McCain and I introduced groundbreaking legislation to help cut greenhouse gas emissions."
But it is much more effective, and less costly, to remove the root cause of global warming.
At the rate of reduction in radiative forcing due to political hot air, "Global Warming" is being cancelled out and is actually in the process of reversal.

The primary equation by which radiative forcing for a doubling of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere has fallen to <85% of the value assigned to it by the UN/IPCC in 1990.
That represents a reduction in green house gas warming of 0.68wm-2 across eight years through the mere expediant of removing a portion of the political hot air, from UN/IPCC's original coefficients for calculating radiative forcing of CO2.
This is equivalent to a 13% reduction in CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere from 360ppm to 317ppm, the level of CO2 in the atmosphere in 1960.
8 years of removing hot air from the global warming climate has compensated for 40years of CO2 accumulation.
Figure 1: Atmospheric CO2 concentrations in parts per million by volume, ppm, at Mauna Loa, Hawaii. These measurements agree well with those at other locations (1). Periodic cycle is caused by seasonal variations in CO2 absorption by plants. Approximate global level of atmospheric CO2 in 1900 and 1940 is also displayed (2).
The UN/IPCC estimates that the industrial age has added a net CO2 forcing of 1.4wm-2 up to the year 2000.
The means the root cause of global warming (political hot air) has a half life of 8years, and we can expect hot air forcing to wither away to nothing in just a few decades as the natural balance of common sense returns to the scientific community.
