Yeh what you said plus the fact that the regulations only take place in some countries and not others. If it was a problem it would need to be addressed by every one and not just by a few.

I do not agree with your addition at all. The "carbon dioxide reducing" regulations if universally enforced across nation boundaries would greatly decrease economic activity worldwide and thus impoverish humanity. Less world wealth would lead to unemployment, dislocation, death, wars, real environment devastation, man-made disaster. Even if only some major economies adopt "carbon reduction" schemes, the world suffers economic loss. Trade works to increase the wealth of all nations. Government regulation forcing businesses to avoid poisoning the environment are necessary, Government "carbon reducing" regulation recklessly distorting the economy is dangerous foolishness.
