I can't remember where I read the figures, but if the usa endorsed Kyoto, it would give the UN a budget of 100 times the USA yearly GNP.
Can you just imagine what that kind of money in the hands of all these NGO's (Non- government organizations) that make up the UN's various branches can do?
The UN, besides the membership of all the worlds nations, is bursting at the seems with NGO's controlled by the worlds elite's, and organizations like Greenpeace.
We would be "governed" by un-elected and selected elitists. We would have the UN's new world "religion" which is earth worship, "gaia" the mother earth god, and the "earth charter" as our new bible. What's even more scary than that, is that the Islamic Mafia is ready to pounce through the UN to take complete control after the UN elite's do their work and make their dream come true.
When the UN had their Earth charter ceremony, carrying their "ark", a golden ark very similar to the biblical ark, to NY, it was the beginning of their mission to establish world order, world government, and a world religion.
Never EVER should the USA give up any sovereignty and independence for such an idiotic plan as this.
This sounds real tin foil hat, but it's not! The UN and it's society of elitsts have been working on this for a very long time. Here are some intersting links:
Earth Charter's "unholy ark"
http://www.crossroad.to/articles2/2002/ark.html
"...volunteers began walking with the Ark of Hope from Vermont to New York City, where it will be given to the United Nations.... It contains a copy of the Earth Charter.....
"The Earth Charter is a declaration of fundamental principles for building a just, sustainable, and peaceful global society in the 21st century. It is the product of a commission with representatives from every corner of the globe, including recognized world leaders such as Mikhail Gorbachev from Russia and ... Steven C. Rockefeller.... The drafting effort involved more than 100,000 people in 51 countries."

Trading U.S. Rights for UN Rules
A report on President Clinton's Executive Order 13107:

While Americans focused on more scintillating news, President Clinton quietly signed a new executive order titled "The Implementation of Human Rights Treaties." The media ignored it and our leaders didn't tell us. Yet we will pay the cost -- in freedom as well as dollars -- for the creation of a massive government bureaucracy to promote, monitor, and enforce compliance with human rights regulations mandated by the United Nations. Remember, this governing body shows only contempt for biblical values, American sovereignty, and the U.S. Constitution.
UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (scary stuff in there, read carefully) An example of one of the many UN NGO's dictating world law to YOU! Thanks to Clinton these laws and future rulings can supercede American laws.
