But let's be clear about something: this treaty isn't really about global warming. It was never about global warming. Global warming is the biggest snail darter in history.

Says it all.

Drudge is reporting that the "Bush Administration" is getting in on the chicken little act now! I cant wait to hear Rush defend this line of crap, he keeps defending Bush on his liberal approach to conservatism, but the cat is clawing its way out of the bag!

I think Mars should also commit to the Kyoto Treaty and curb their Martian emissions, because the martian polar caps are starting to melt as a result of global warming. Gee, you don't think solar activity has anything to do with this?? NAHHHHHHHHHH! (sarcus maximus)

Kyoto Paradox I:
Climate is an extremely complex, chaotic, coupled, non-linear, time-dependent system
with massive, external, naturally-occuring inputs and wide variability in measurables.
Therefore,
To say we can control it by tweaking a small set of factors is ridiculous on its face.

Kyoto Paradox II:
Climate is an extremely complex, chaotic, coupled, non-linear, time-dependent system
with massive, external, naturally-occuring inputs and wide variability in measurables.
Therefore,
You can no more successfully predict the outcome of doing something than you can of
not doing something. In other words, the impact of trying to "fix" a climate problem
is as unpredictable as the impact of ignoring it.

The US overall generates about 4 terawatts of electricity, and a lot more energy is consumed in cars and trucks and trains and ships and other ways.

A really big wind plant might produce three hundred megawatts, but only when the wind is blowing. 4 terawatts is 13,000 three-hundred-megawatt power plants. Not gonna happen. There are nothing like that many sites, for one thing.

Ireland is going all out on this and is going to manage about half a gigawatt, but only by exhausting every appropriate site in the nation. The US uses 8000 times that much electricity.

This says it all.
