The Kyoto Treaty does nothing about global climate change. It doesn't even reduce atmospheric pollutant releases. It only transfers cash from the US to some other countries.
Kyoto does not recognize the US as a carbon sink, rather than a carbon emitter. We have more trees, vegetation and farms that take CO2 out of the atmosphere, than we have factories that produce CO2.
The media never reports this. If there was a real Kyoto plan, we would be given credits, instead of being asked to pay for the plan.
Evil deals.
